#3001Hello again

Just wondering, has anyone else ever recorded themselves singing RENT songs?
If so I think it would be fun to share!
Just an idea from a very bored mind at college...
Let me know!

#3005OT: What else rhymes with "opportunity"?

Since this pertained (indirectly) to Anthony's character from RENT, I thought I would post this here.
I don't know if anyone else is a fan of continuity flubs,(in the name of fun of course!), but here's a great one from RENT:
As we all know, Mark uses a MANUAL-WIND Bolex 16mm movie camera in the show and now the movie. Check out the lines below from the OBC cast recording, HAPPY NEW YEAR B. Hmmm. What else "rhymes" with "opportunity"?
Benny: Mark you'll want to get this on film..
Mark: I guess
blah blah padlocked door blah blah cyberarts
Mark: I had no juice in my battery.
Benny: Reshoot.
Adam: Oh, I see this is a photo opportunity!

Posted: 4/11/05 at 7:49pmI recorded Take Me or Leave Me with a friend on a handheld recorder but it was from when we were both really hyper at 3:00AM so I don't think its anything you guys would want to hear. :-P

My friend's dad records shows for a living (like high school plays, concerts, etc.). One time, two of my friends and I recorded ourselves singing using the RENT Karaoke CD. Her dad made a CD out of it. It sounded prefessional!

Posted: 4/12/05 at 1:35amAlright I think we should probably get back on topic (Holy ****! MIKA telling people to stop threadjacking??? Now there's a eye opener....) :-P But in all seriousness, now that we have the new off-topic Anthony thread.....or we did ...where did that go? Anyways, you all get the idea, not trying to be bitchy I promise!

*shuffles feet nervously since she tends to ask already answered questions* Um, I was watching a video of The Tango:Maureen and I had a question (like you don't know what's coming next)
Anthony, where'd you learn to tango?
Seriously, you're really good at it. You're actually a great dancer, which I wasn't expecting (What? I saw Adventures in Babysitting). Wow, that sounds mean. I just mean that I didn't expect you to be that GOOD at it. *sheepish grin* I just wanted to know if you'd ever taken lessons or something.
That is all *hides behind couch with a book*

*perks out of lack-of-sleep coma for a moment* Tango: Maureen video? Where? And yes, the dance sequences in AIB were hilarious but in a funny way, not a bad one. Speaking of videos, I read somewhere that you (Anthony) did a spoof of La Vie Boheme at some point and it was filmed. Any info about that? It sounded pretty funny. Alright well that's about all I had to say...*slumps back into coma* Goodnight everyone!

I just stumbled upon this site and got sucked in.
I accidentally found the Rent set while they were shooting the New Years scene after seeing Evita about a week and a half ago which was so cool. Especially since a friend and I had written Mr. Columbus a letter, asking to work on the set. haha, crazy I know, but I hope to work in film eventually and, who knows, sometimes people read letters.
I'm asking everyone:
Does anyone know when Rent will be shooting on location in SF, ie not on Treasure Island so I could go to the set? I mean when I saw them shooting last time, even though I was kept at a reasonable distance, it was still amazing. Thanks.

Posted: 4/13/05 at 4:03pmHi alterego. There was a thread about this a day or two ago, you might do a search. It gave some details about a place (in Oakland), but not the time. Keep your eye on this board and also compulsivebowlers.org for more info.

Welcome Alterego! It is an addictive site isn't it? I don't think I left my computer for the first 48 hours after registering. :-P Anyways, yeah Compulsivebowlers.org is a great place for RENT info.

Hey Anthony!
The other day my twin brother was telling me about this great book he had to read for his English class. I didn't know what book he was referring to because we take different English classes. My brother really isn't into reading, so I wanted to ask him more about it, but something came up. A couple days later the school board banned the book because it was too "sexually explicit" or some other such nonsense. Someone on our school board said that if they allowed material such as that novel to be in the curriculum they might as well allow Playboy and Penthouse, too. It was then that I learned the title and the author of the novel that had the administration up in arms. It's "The Buffalo Tree" by Adam Rapp.
I haven't had a chance to read this book, but I don't see how it can be any more sexually explicit than some of the material I've had to read in my 9th and 10th grade English classes.
Anthony, I was wondering if you have read this novel and what your feelings about it being banned from my school? Like I said, I haven't had a chance to read it myself, but I highly doubt that it is as explicit as Playboy and/or Penthouse.
Has anyone else read this book? Thoughts? Opinions?

Posted: 4/16/05 at 6:33pm
I haven't read The Buffalo Tree yet, but I've read other Adam Rapp material and think it's wonderful. Just finished Nocturne while on a four hour plane ride and loved it so much. Can't really explain why right now, but just wanted to say that.
Em-Lee(this is not going to be said in a mean way at all) considering Adam is Anthony's brother, Anthony probably has read The Buffalo Tree. I think I'd have to read the book first and get back to you on why it could've been banned. Where I live stuff like The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn was banned last year along with a bunch of other stuff. Kind of amazing some of the books that get banned. I think To Kill a Mockingbird is on the banned list here or was. But that's something to look into.

#3023Nocturne
Posted: 4/16/05 at 6:40pmI read Stone Cold, Dead Serious recently and I really enjoyed it. It said that Anthony was in the NY cast and I was a bit surprised because I was under the impression that the only work of his brother's he'd been in was Nocturne. Anyways, I ordered Nocturne and The Buffalo Tree a few weeks ago but they have yet to arrive. (stupid postal service...) *grumbles*

#3024Nocturne
Posted: 4/16/05 at 6:51pmNocturne is great. I was lucky that my boyfriend found it(of course he didn't tell me about it and instead gave it to me on Valentine's Day) when he was looking for Stone Cold Dead Serious. Have you read the other two plays yet? I liked all of the plays that went with Stone Cold Dead Serious but that one was my favorite.
