Snafu, so true. I'm loving what I've heard so far! Kinda' a hybrid of the original arrangements and the film's arrangements. The vocals are fab and the production of the album is warm and full. ...As I'm out in San Francisco, the cast recording will have to get me through until I can make my trip out there for my next show pilgrimage...

I've heard so far:
Ain't Got No Grass
I Got Life
My Conviction
Where Do I Go
Electric Blues
Black Boys
Walking in Space
3-5-0-0
What a Piece of Work Is Man/How Dare They Try?
Curtain Call: Let the Sun Shine In (reprise)

It's so annoying having to wait through all the other stuff to get to the new recording stuff haha, but it sounds SO good so far!!

I Got Life was just on and *le sigh*, Gavin <3
Now Where Do I Go needs to come on!!

I really enjoy this. It plays good music, and then of course the tracks from the new recording... which are amazing.

It took for freaking EVER for Where Do I Go to come up haha. But it finally did, and it is BEAUTIFUL <3

Why don't they just put it up on itunes now if it's ready? This is so annoying.

I'm sure there's all sorts of red tape and things involved in releasing these things.

OMG at the interview piece where Will was saying how one time a guy actually gave him $100 when he asked for it in the beginning of the show! That's crazy!! haha

[sgv123]

Yeah, someone on here wrote that in their review. The man had seen the show before and asked to trade seats so he could give Will $100.
