I remember reading a while back there was a song called "Anywhere But Here," which was one Peter sings with Mary Jane early on after the bullying. Any thoughts on this? Only thing I can think of was it was renamed to No More since that was its placement in the show.

I wish I recorded this to rewind what Leslie Stahl said (surely in jest) to The Edge about their score of this 'like Rodgers and Hammerstein'. His reaction was so blankly hilarious. And Leslie looked uncomfortable basically being the fly on the wall in the discussions among the three.

60 Minutes doesn't start here for 35 minutes. I hope we get the whole show. The Broncos' game is running long.

Man, this thread is/is going to be the most fun this board has seen for a long time.

I'm getting a kick out of reading the reactions to the 60 Minutes piece on Twitter. It hadn't occurred to me that so many people would be hearing about it for the first time tonight.

Is their any musical clips from the show around?

I'm not surprised, wonderwaiter. Have you seen any real publicity for this show that "civilians" would garner any awareness?

[wonderwaiter]

Posted: 11/28/10 at 7:33pm

I'm more surprised that I was surprised. I forget that not everyone has been keeping up with this show for at least the past year.

Go back a page. There is a clear picture in this thread.

They started well after 6:30pm, it's a long show, and they're expecting to have to stop due to technical difficulties, so I expect intermission won't be for a little while.

60 Minutes piece is epic! Totally falling for this show all over again.

The Spider-Man feature was before the Supreme Court piece.
It did look amazing.

“He’s going to be swinging out over our heads,” Logan said, “and I want him to fall on me so I can bring him home.”

I said almost that exact same thing about Cheyenne Jackson on skates in Xanadu!

Treadmills and football cameras rigs and "no one wants a $25/35 million dollar Spider-Man", oh my! I have a feeling that people would have been satisfied with traditional harnesses and fewer injured actors, but what Taymor has created (as explained in 60 Minutes) is rather ingenious.

Best part of the 60 Minutes preview? The conductor grooving to the music with her shoes off. That behavior is saved for good music, my friends, and I'm holding out hope that this is a solid rock score. I'm also holding out hope that there is a whole lot of underscoring and incidental music not listed in the playbill as I'm a greedy music whore.

haha- I loved the conductor grooving too! The song Bono was singing that was a duet between Peter and MJ sounded amazing! The part of "I go to sleep in my clothes," is stuck in my head! Always a good sign!

But these live tweets about tech difficulty... oh my goodness. I love twitter so much right now. SO MUCH.
