Posted: 5/5/09 at 9:31amI have no opinion on the show, as I haven't seen it yet, but I believe it was Withoutatrace who stated that anyone who liked the show was the "scum of the Earth." Or perhaps it was the "dregs of society." I forget which.

No, that "Who Said It" was referring to "Who said that it would get a bunch of nominations?"
And the answer would be ME.
Hope everyone else, PiraguaGuy, TheCharleston, etc., are eating their words.

I still believe that to be true...adamgreer, please do not see this show.

Congrats to the show. I am a bit surprised by the noms, but it makes sense in a way. Like it or not, the show IS different. The songs aren't original, the plot isn't original, but somehow, like it or not, the show is.
While the rubbing it in may be over the top, the hatred for the show has been just as bad if not worse (the two feed off each other). Embarrassing really. It's sad when people who I would imagine consider themselves very openminded in their politics and lives become so ironically provincial.

Massofmen, as a fan of the show, I am so happy!! But this thread is embarrasing and digusting...
#1 - five nominations. that's it. calm down.
#2 - it isn't TONY'S. It is either TONYS or Tonys. No apostrophe.
go Rock Of Ages!!

Y'know what? (And I say this without a twinge of sarcasm)
I AM eating crow. Plates and plates of the stuff. While I never bashed the show itself (I haven't seen it) I did not predict such a positive response to it. Congratulations to the cast, creatives, crew, and fans. Maybe I'll have to give the Brooks Atkinson a visit now.

PiraguaGuy, Do it. You will have the time of your life.
Maybe not the best time of all the times in your life, but this show is crafted, not slammed together, and has Great-White-Way-level performances all around.
It is not deeply moving [was it, for anyone? No, probably not.]
It's just a tremendous amount of fun, and it is nice to see so many really terrific Legit Theater performers (actors, singers, dancers, musicians) with an ongoing gig.
