Jane-baby,

Can you imagine how bananas the crowds are gonna be on Friday? Wesley's such a little heart and scene stealer...in some ways, EVERY member of the cast is in their roles..and THAT is what makes it work each and every night!

Constantine is going to be a Special Celebrity Guest at Star Pets 2008 at the Edison Ballroom on 47th on Monday Nov 10th.

I would love to see that. Costly, though. That is the hotel we are staying at the two nights before that event. lol

You'll have to let me know how the Edison is...
I would probably cave into temptation and go (and work a couple days' extra to get back the ticket price) but the dh will be with me on this trip...$500?? Not even for such a good cause, and C~ with puppies... *sniffle*
Guess I'll just have to go to RoA that night to get my fix instead. Such a sacrifice :P

A rumor of cast recording in the works...excellent...

It has just been announced that the cast of "Rock of Ages" will be performing on "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" on Friday, November 14th!!!!

I queried a someone close to the top of the show's production food chain to see if I could get out of him WHICH number will be performed...nada.

So now we can start two weeks of speculation.

My guess? "Here I Go Again"

With a lighter in the air and a song in my heart,

I was just speculating about the selection on another board, and came up with Here I Go Again, too. It's a great number to showcase.

I'm floating an idea to the producers for a ROA on Conan viewing party at the bar at New World Stages as the 10pm Friday show gets out right around the time Conan airs...wish me luck!

I hope everyone who gets to go to the show tonight has a rockin' time.

It should be a very special show. Please let us know how everything goes.

Just got back from the show--- it was AMAZING !!!

The entire place was electric! We were in the 1st row--- Sara got totally "hair-groped"- by Will Swenson,
(Happy B'day Sar-- Luv ya !!)
and Lara Janine was on as Sherrie, and all I can say is.. I THINK I AM IN LOVE !!!

What costume won the contest, testing?

[Testing1232]

Posted: 10/31/08 at 11:10pm

A couple won dressed as "Flashdance girl" (guess thats how I would describe it...LOL), and Tom Cruise ("Risky Business")

Personally, we were pulling for the "Tron" guy !!

What a show tonight! Whew! Couldn't have asked for a better Halloween and also had the most fun I have had a show in a very long time. Sitting in the front row at "Rock of Ages" is beyond fun. And yes, getting "hair groped" by Will Swenson (as Testing mentioned), well...all I can say is that it got really hot in there. What a great night. And how cute is Lara Janine?

I hope everyone had a good Halloween!

I felt robbed by the halloween contest Im in a wheelchair, I couldnt get on the stage, and so no one could see me. ho hum.

Posted: 11/1/08 at 3:09am

Hey Silly and Testing...just an FYI...Lara was not in for Kelli tonight - Savannah Wise was. Lara then was in for Savannah's usual role.

And Kelli was in for the 10pm show. Celebrities spotted at the 10pm included Mary Testa and Jackie Hoffman of "Xanadu" and multiple Tony winner Audra McDonald.

Night night, rockers!

Ha Ha. Oops. I was just going by the name in the Playbill. Well then, Savannah Wise was really great!

Aw...love love love Mary Testa and Jackie Hoffman.

Did you go to both shows, Lizzy? How was the second one?

[Testing1232]

Posted: 11/1/08 at 10:03am

<< I felt robbed by the halloween contest Im in a wheelchair, I couldnt get on the stage, and so no one could see me. ho hum. >>

We saw you, Mistress... we were sitting on that side. You looked GREAT !!!!

<< Hey Silly and Testing...just an FYI...Lara was not in for Kelli tonight - Savannah Wise was. Lara then was in for Savannah's usual role >>

Double oops... yeah, thought I heard them say Lara's name.. like Sara said... we both went by the Playbill after hearing the name. Well, Savannah was great !!!

[Testing1232]

Posted: 11/1/08 at 10:20am

Here ya go...



Still love Lara too !!!

So, how was the 10PM, Lizzy !!!!?????????????????????????

Must have been insane !!

>>>>Spoke to someone in the production today via email and a cast recording is currently in the discussion phase.

Very cool!
I would like one.

I'm bringing my co-workers for a girls night out next week- can't wait to see the show again.

[VocalLizzy]

Posted: 11/1/08 at 12:12pm

Yep, that's Miss Savannah...and looks like the guy in that photo is none other than Broadway veteran and current "Mad Men" star Bryan Batt (I saw him in Forbidden Broadway YEARS ago - he's awesome!).

The 10pm show was TOTALLY off the chain..."small but mighty" as Lonnie said (I'll assume the mezz wasn't full). I was in what is now probably my 2nd favorite seat (after A102)...B113. Mitch (Lonnie) picked me out as his "cocktail holding, nasty little freak machine" / "you! my dressing room, 2 minutes" gal (and he had a naughty little ad lib as I was NOT the "oh God he's picking on me" shrinking violet some folks can be).

The other thing about that seat...for Cum on Feel the Noize, you practically get Will's head in your lap at the end of the song. LOLOLOL

Kelli was in at the 10pm (never got to speak to her after the show).

Now...since the holiday is over...what WAS my costume? Okay, here were the components: black boots and leggings, black Look What The Cat Dragged In (Poison's first album) tee shirt, black choker with rhinestone skull/crossbones, black wings and halo.

I was the song "Fallen Angel" from Poison! And Mistress...your personification of "Turning Japanese" by The Vapors was TOTALLY brilliant...loved it!

Hugs to all,

Anyone see/hear reaction from Mary and/or Jackie !!!???

Would love to hear what they thought of the show.

Yeah, Savannah is some lil' sparkplug !!! LOVED HER !!

Shame that the 10PM wasnt packed- I really feel for the cast having such little time in between Friday shows. I wonder if they will eventually just go to an 8PM on Friday?
