DW, I'm just a huge fan. I saw it back in March. And can't wait to see it again Memorial Day weekend. But when I got home to Boston. There seemed to be little love for PS, except for J. So thats when the PSLove Thread began. And here we are today.

Heads up for Monday:

Apparently now you have to go to the website and register for a "chance" to be there for the recording session.

ARGH.

Thanks for the heads up. It seems like they're cutting it pretty close. It's already Friday.

Maybe they'll just have enough people for the ORCH and nothing upstairs.

Well, my thought was that TOO many people signed up for the mailing list, and they can't fit us all, so only the people who can figure out the next step get invited?

If that is the case, let's just keep it in this thread..

Love the shirts. I so wish I could see this show. I fell in love with the songs they posted. I even re-posted them to you tube!

Not Barker, Todd..yes you may. Welcome.

Did any of you guys catch Stew's interview on NY1's On Stage?

DK Now there are some people who have mistakenly called PS a rock musical, but you’ve taken issue with that..In fact, you wrote in an article that I saw, that to you, the most terrifying words in the English language are rock musical.. Why do you say that?

STEW Well primarily, because the musicals that have been described as rock musicals, to me is not really rock music..or it’s rock music with quotations around it. By rock music I mean, I don’t think it’s music that any self-respecting rock band would actually listen to, when they weren’t inside of a theatre. In fact, probably a lot of self respecting rock bands might not go to see that music in the theatre..so for me, rock music is something that music people listen to.

That's such a slap in the face! Not to me, but to SA and RENT.

I really liked the interview in general, especially when he talks about how rock sort of disappeared for 40 years from the theatre after HAIR, even though it is so popular in mainstream, and that this musical is music that they would actually play. As a lyricist, it made a big impression on me.

[frogs_fan85]

Posted: 4/11/08 at 3:21pm

Just got the newsletter about the cast recording session. Here's the important info:

Please show up at the Belasco Theatre at 1pm sharp to be eligible in the lottery to receive a ticket to the recording that will begin promptly at 2pm. We will begin a drawing at 1:20pm and winners of the lottery will be able to enter the theatre beginning at 1:30pm.

For a $20 cash donation to Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, you can be a part of the LIVE audience for this rare, bare-bones recording session. No lights, no set, no costumes, no scenes from the play. Just the music...just THE REAL.

Yeah, that's what it seems like, WALT.(the stupid lottery)
PERKINS--GREAT REVIEW! The crux of the show in a nutshell. Bravo!

[coolkid11776]

Posted: 4/11/08 at 4:58pm

So I HAVE to do lottery if I want tix I can't just show up and buy $20 tickets?

[WaltSummersPI]

Posted: 4/11/08 at 4:59pm

That's really stupid.

[verynewyorkcurious]

Posted: 4/11/08 at 5:01pm

coolkid11776, yes you can. Just make sure you show up exactly at 1:30PM..and have $20 in cash.

[thetinymagic2]

Posted: 4/11/08 at 5:03pm

VERYC, I wouldn't take all this *marketing* all too seriousoly. STEW is just trying to distinguish PS from other shows. I'm sure the marketing team is making choices now regarding demographics....

[coolkid11776]

Posted: 4/11/08 at 5:04pm

How many lottery tickets are going to be sold? If I don't win will they have other seats or SRO?

[frogs_fan85]

Posted: 4/11/08 at 5:05pm

No it's a lottery! Also, shouldn't you be in school Monday afternoon on Long Island?

[WaltSummersPI]

Posted: 4/11/08 at 5:09pm

It seems like ALL it is ... is a lottery. How many seats are they giving away? 20?
