Speaking of things that are amazing, Raul on "Spaceship". Talk about insane belting. I don't care how much you like or don't like (is that even possible) Raul, he's AMAZING on that song.
I think it's that song anyway, "Frankenfurter it's all over. Your mission is a failure, your lifestyle's too extreme..." GODLY!
PS - "Floor Show" is always fun, aside from the obvious standards i.e. Sciene Fiction, Time Warp.
And I'm with Mr. G and BG2 on this one: seeing the show was an incredible experience. The sets and costumes were amazing and the energy was out of this world. It was definitely the most fun and unique theater experience I've had.

I'll have to go with the Time Warp and also the end of Rose Tint My World/The Floor Show when RiffRaff comes out and "crashes the party" to speak. I dunno... any part with Raul! Over at the Frankenstein Place when he starts to sing too. lol.
Too bad that i missed the National Tour...

Posted: 10/8/04 at 2:01pmI'm sorry, but the BEST part in Rocky Horror is the octave jump from "I'm your" to "new" and then back down to "commander"! I'll NEVER forget the first time I heard that!

The actress that plays Eddie is kind of annoying
in the song Hot Patotie, but love her as Dr Scott!
Raul and Daphne is a great combo - Time Warp
And for Over at the Frankenstein Place

capnkidd, it's on the CD.
i'm listening to Lea Delaria's (Eddie) CD where she sings jazz adaptations of showtunes, very cool.

Posted: 10/9/04 at 8:22pmOne of the biggest reasons I love this show is because it introduced me to the wonder that is Raul!

I keep meaning to ask this question.
If anybody seen Rocky Horror Show
revival cast, how was the "prologue"
the lips persona?

Posted: 10/17/04 at 1:29am"Science Fiction Double Feature" has nothing to do with lips. It was staged as taking place in a run down movie theatre. The Phantoms played patrons and seats were filled in with dummies. Magenta and Columbia (when Bach joined the cast, it was Magenta and Riff raff)sang it as a duet. The stage floor flipped over to become a regulars tage floor suring "Over at the Frankenstein Place"
