I've made an executive decision to take the day off of work.

I'm not missing this for the world.

You don't buy tickets. You just go.

Even if you live in California, at least you have a chance of seeing some promotional stuff. I don't think us kids in South Carolina should hold our breath. Ah well, I'm going to visit a friend in L.A. in October so maybe I'll get lucky!

After doing a few bryant parks you can just bring your video cameras. So taping this shouldn't be a problem at all. The day of the blackout when I was there we taped it and there was no problem. I am so excited for this, its going to be amazing!

It's the week I'm at the beach! I knew that bumping my vacation back a week was a horrible idea! And I'm finally at the point with my parents where they would let me go to NYC on my own. Gah!

Okay, maturity now, but in that article, it said that Rent has been one the all-time BC/EFA fundraising champions and raised $2.2 million over the last 9 years. Good for them!

I think I might actually have a heart attack! I will record the Today Show, but I will seriously pay someone to record this for me! I hate that I don't live in the city... is Bryant Park shown on any tv shows?

I can't believe this... kangaroo

Posted: 7/15/05 at 12:21am

i'll be there. what's this talk about camping out?

GOOD CALL.

I guess we'll hear more about that appearance as it approaches, but I'd totally go, and then head over to the park.

Grrrr....I think that's my last day of class!! Granted, it ends at 11:10 but that would be cutting it really close to 12:30, I'd get there before but considering how many people I'm sure will show up, I'd be shocked if I'd be close enough to hear them at that point.....hrmph.....hmmm

They're coming up with some terrific marketing schemes. I hope this film pleasantly surprises everyone who has low expectations for it or hasn't passed judgment yet.

I think someone's idea (Thenardier's?) of having a bww section is an excellent one, if it is feasible. That way, people who couldn't make it really early could meet up with other bwwers. I don't know if this is even possible, having never been to a Bway in Bryant Park before.

Does anyone know how long these things usually last?

[Marlene]

Posted: 7/15/05 at 6:48pm

Yes...I think all the BWWers should raid a good spot and proclaim it for ourselves! Mwuhahaha!

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 7/15/05 at 6:48pm

They're like an hour and a half(ish), Elphie.

[kangaroo]

Posted: 7/15/05 at 10:04pm

I might be able to go! I think that I am *hopefully* going to either take a bus or train up to NYC for this special event. I like the idea of making a bww section... we should wear nametags with our bww name on it! just kidding, but I really hope I can go because I think I would cry!

Thanks, Emcee.
This *might* actually work out!! AHHH!! Hopefully my camp will be going on a trip that day, and I won't have to go. *prays*

I just read something that said cast members from other shows will be performing a bit too, as part of this BC/EFA thing. CCBB was listed - if they bring the principals, could this day get ANY better?! Gah.

<-- Still slightly upset that this is happening TWO DAYS before I get to NYC.

[wickedrentq]

Posted: 7/27/05 at 3:51pm

Woohoo...so like I said my final's that day? Well chances are I'll be done w/ class at 9:30. He said we'll just watch a movie and he'll let us out at 10:30 but then I was like, well what if I really hafta be somewhere? He said well not tooo early, I don't wanna get in trouble...chances are I'll finish the test around 9 and if I have to stay till 9:30 then come down. And maybe when he sees me bouncing and jumping and mouthing words in my seat while others finish the test, he'll let me go earlier.

Hey guys!
I am making the trip to NYC from OHIO and i have a brand new awesome digital video camera that shoots in widescreen! I will most definitely be at both locations (Today show and Bryant Park). Don't forget about the interviews for the biggest RENThead contest as advertised on the official site.

Since I am not from NYC I don't know that I am the best person for the job, but someone needs to spearhead this coordination of BWWers. If we can show the nation on live TV the types of fans that RENT has, we can promote the movie with more power than just the cast TV appearance. I vote we all gather at the Today show and stick together as a group all the way through Bryant Park. I will record it all and will not look to profit.

Is there a way that we can put a list together of all the BWW screen names planning on attending so we can all meet? I wish I knew how to use this site better.

Well, get back to me. I look forward to meeting up with everyone.

Somebody get ahold of Anthony and let him know we'll all be there together!
