Posted: 8/1/05 at 12:11pmSo the question is, now that Idina and Tracie are singing TMOLM in the park, do you think they are also going to be singing it on The Today Show, because that would be really cool.

Ooh what are they singing on the Today show?
Hopefully not seasons of love..there are other good songs from that show, people! lol
"No two shows are alike in the making. Each show is a living
piece of your life in a small unreal world with its own character
and integrity; its own new set of memorable experiences and
incredible happenings. You begin to love and adapt to its strangeness.
Dreams harden into substance. Values come into focus. You wish
it would never end. The dream world vanishes like mist before a
rising sun; part of you vanishes with it. And back you land in the
real world with a thud- fogged, uneasy, jittery, difficult to get
along with. There is only one cure. A new show. A new, small
unreal world; new visions, experiences, incredible happenings.
Again you love it, adapt to it, wish it would never end.
But end it does. Another part of you vanishes.
That's show business."-Anonymous

Posted: 8/1/05 at 12:16pmI'd imagine it would be SOL. It showcases the whole cast, not just one or two people. Plus, there's a possibility they release SOL as a single before the movie (they'd be smart to, anyway), so might as well get it out to the mainstream ASAP

I'm going to be there! I just really hope that the cast performs before 10...9:30 would be nice. I need to get to work! ARGH! Oy...I need to be at the park. Idina doing TMOLM?!?!? Ahhhhhhh. *bounces* I think BWW should take over the Today Show and kick ass! Step down Katie Couric! It seems as if I'll be fashionably late to work...:/ Shall I go find my remains the giant roll of caution tape and make a nice little VIP space for BWWers...or will the Today Show people come after me?
I'm actually confused, where exactly is it? Like the area infront of FAO and the Plaza...or I am confusing my shows? Oh well...finding out at 5am in the morning is good enough for me.

If I lay here

Posted: 8/1/05 at 12:59pmThey're doing TMoLM in Bryant Park?? That's awesome. I don't think I'm going to the Today SHow. I want to get a good spot in the park.

To the Today Show, beacs? I can't get up that early. I also can't brave legions of RENTheads that early; I'm gonna stay home, make sure it tapes since I'm using a TV with wonky tendencies, then I'm heading out to Bryant Park as soon as the broadcast ends. Wouldn't miss it for the world.

Who is singing the two Seasons of Love solos in the movie?
Will Jesse L. Martin be singing the male solo?
#19re: RENT on the Today Show
Posted: 8/1/05 at 1:59pmJesse and Tracie, as it was in the trailer, I'd assume. They sound f*cking phenomenal.
#20re: RENT on the Today Show
Posted: 8/1/05 at 2:04pmI will be in Bryant Park...but the Today Show. Mrehhh Too many tourists AND RENTheads. I would have to be there at like 4am to get a good spot in the plaza.

Unless they sing it on TV, not for public consumption. So if they ONLY sing it in the park, no.

Posted: 8/1/05 at 4:57pmWell, MAYBE for the DVD release of the movie (the 'special edition,' anyway), but that would be the only thing I could think of - and I'd much rather them have some performances from the 10th Anny Concert.
