SO EXCITED!! I can't wait to see this. Does anyone know what time it'll be airing in CA? Even I (the laziest morning person in the western hemisphere) would drag my ass out of bed at an ungodly hour to see this.

kas - in a recent photo coverage they had here on BWW (I forget what it was for), Adam's hair was short again, so I think you're in luck...

Is anyone SURE about what they are singing on The Today Show?

shut up are you really?? -- you guys i'm so bummed about this. I spent too long convincing my mom to drop everything she has to do thursday to go to bryant park and now with the today show? fine I can accept not going but I really wanted to do the ultimate renthead contest and I know my mom's not waking up at 5 to take me to the city so I can get there by 7. Ughh this is really pissing me off and now that they cut out finale b-- I LOVE finale B, i love TMOLM but i was looking forward to finale b. Ughh why does the world have to make me 14?. This is like stressing me out.. and there soo friggin secretive about everything over at the RENT blog, some poeple like to know exactly whats going on. **runs away and cries**

M3L24, get a grip and watch it on TV like the rest of us. At least you get to see Bryant Park, which is more than I can say.

sports, they might mean that the show starts at seven but that the rent cast will be on at eight thirty.

To my understanding (from a source at the Today Show), the actual concert does start at 7am

if it does start at 7am.. are they performing then and then NBC will tape segments to show on the air at a later time?

Ok, so I'm a geek and have to ask...does anyone know how to program my VCR to tape it? I have to get on the train for work around 7:30 and I don't want to miss a second of this show. I have the tape, I have a VCR. But I'm not sure what to do next. Please feel free to make fun of me for being an idiot, but please also feel free to take pity on a fellow RentHead and HELP!

Yes that info would be very helpful to me too! I have to go to work at 7:30 or 8:00 but I really don't want to miss this. Does anyone know exactly what time its airing on the west coast?? I'm still a bit confused on that. Thanks!

Dreamcatcher, the best I can tell you is to check your local TV listings. That's what I did. And I got up early one morning last week to make sure I had the time and the station right. Now I just need to figure out how to tape the darn thing.

I am also planning on getting to Rockefeller at 6am like Liotte...does anyone think that many people will arrive before then?

Is there a kind NYC Renthead with a videocamera who's going to Bryant Park that would be a doll and videotape it so us non-NY residents could see it?

as far as arrival time is concerned:

I'm taking a bus from Boston...hopefully a 11:00 or 12:00 bus tonight, which will put me there between 3 and 4. You should come say hi, I have a feeling I'm going to be uber lonely.

I.... decided to go to the taping tomorrow. heh. I'm a BITCH early in the morning, but if you see me, you can come say hi. I'll probably just say something incoherent to you and curl up for a nap.

I should be there by six. So. Excited.
