Ragtime.

Also, just out of curiousity, how many people do you think vote that haven't seen/at least heard the score to one of the shows?

I wish there were some sort of un-enforceable rule stating that the voter must be familiar with both shows.

"I wish there were some sort of un-enforceable rule stating that the voter must be familiar with both shows."

I don't. Some of the early rounds might only get one vote. We are going for favorite musical of this 90's, not best. Favorite includes those shows that people don't know about, and their lack of knowledge.
PLEASE! Do not post anything negative or dramatic! DidYouReallyHearMe has LOST the ability to ignore such posts and he will comment! Please, help him.

this is bigger than duke vs north carolina in the sweet 16. Both shows are beautiful in their own right, but i say Ragtime.

it's bigger than Duke v. UNC, because Duke is pretty damn bad these days...then again.. :)

RAGTIME.

(though if Larson had lived...it would either be a masterpiece or never seen)

RENT by a mile....or maybe ten.

(and yeah, Duke sucks. My whole bracket is over because I had them going all the way. Stupid, I know...but they've always been my team)

Gotta call it for RAGTIME, which, though occasionally dull or preachy, was professional, solid, and smart; unlike RENT, which was the sound of somebody throwing a whole lot of **** at the wall and hoping something would stick. RAGTIME it is.
