I really want Shrek to do "Who I'd Be" because that song is absolutely beautiful the way the three voices all come to together toward the end is beautiful. I would love a medley of "Who I'd Be/Freak Flag" because those songs are two of my personal favorites.

Posted: 5/5/09 at 5:49pmI would bet that Hair's performance will include several cast members emerging out of the audience, behind notable theatre people. I would put money that either Liza or Jane Fonda gets groped by a tribe member.

Posted: 5/5/09 at 5:51pmI think a problem for Shrek's number is gonna be getting Brian in and out of that Ogre makeup. It takes forever and if he's in the audience or his category is close to their performance, they're not gonna be able to get him Ogrefied. Perhaps they'll pretape?

Posted: 5/5/09 at 5:52pmShrek may go first, giving him plenty of time to look human again for his category.

I really hope Hair doesn't do The Flesh Failures or Aquarius. My bet is they'll do the title song, maybe a little bit of I Got Life.
Guys and Dolls will almost certainly do Sit Down.
I think Rock of Ages would be the most likely to do a medley, but I'm not sure which songs they would put in.
Also, is it completely impossible that Shrek would do Morning Person? Maybe as part of a medley, and just the dance break?
Oh, and add me to the list of people who think Next to Normal should do Light.

Posted: 5/5/09 at 8:10pmWhy wouldn't/shouldn't Hair do Aquarius/Flesh Failures? That pairing is easily one of the most famous songs ever.
