Welcome, Anthony Rapp! — Page 135

Slight threadjack--
Dreamcatcher, my friend Caitlin was on vacation (in Chicago, I think..?) while LSoH was playing there and was under the impression that Anthony was still in the show. She'd only seen him once (in Seattle) so she didn't really remember what he looked like and went up to whoever played him and said "You are the most incredible performer ever!" and talked to him for a few minutes...When she came home I had to tell her that Anthony wasn't in the show anymore...I think she was talking to Jonathan Rayson :)

Yay! (although yes the whole Pippin over JCS is really weird...I'm so scared for Pippin, we are ridiculously behind schedule..) Oops...*end threadjack*

PM me if you want to know where I saw the downloads.


You can thank me later. Just get downloading cause they take forever. What can I say? Anything for Anthony!

You are so very welcome! I'm wondering if I should maybe have PMed you with those. I don't know if they're "street legal." Can't see how they wouldn't be but I'm not the expert. Go have fun and show some mad love for Anthony. You can be sure that I'll be watching WYO about once every hour.

Mine, too! Oh how I do love Anthony.

I noticed the shirt, too. I wonder if he just didn't have anything else to change into. I figured they all changed since it got so much hotter out after the Today show. In any case, Anthony can wear red like nobody's business.

The downloads are from the Today show. I have no idea where they came from or who posted them. But it's basically what you would have seen on your TV screen. I just wanted ot be able to listen to them over and over again so I can get my RENT fix. It's a long time till the soundtrack comes out.

Sorry! I don't know how else you could get them. SOL was on the Today show website yesterday. I'm not sure if it still is. I tohught they would have updated their site with the whole performance by now. But there have been a TON of boards about it. Someone there might know where you could see it.

You are so very right, EM. I taped it on my crappy VCR and will watch it every morning while eating my oatmeal. Anthony, you were fantastic, as usual.

EM, thanks for helping me keep this thread at the top of the message board. Where has everyone been? I know Anthony hasn't been around i awhile (at least he hasn't posted), but I still need Anthony fans to talk to. No one else understands me.

The shirt thing made me laugh. :-P I do wonder if its Anthony's shirt or if Wilson just happened to have the same one. Heh and this is the sadness of my life, pondering T-shirts worn by broadway actors.....right.

And yes, Adam and Anthony singing What You Own was incredible and it had me smiling quite widely (and perhaps obnoxiously) for the rest of the day. I think my friends thought I was high or something. :-P But no. Well, high on the beauty of RENT maybe..... God that was awsome.

And in other news, my LSoH tickets just came in the mail! Row CC seat 22. Woohoo! Well although he was initally mistaken for Anthony, I'm glad that it seems Jonathan does a really good Seymour. I can't wait to see him and the rest of the cast.

PS. glad to see this thread back again. It truly is the thread that can never die! 3 cheers for the Anthony fans that keep it alive!! *cheers*

My school started the 4th and I had to set the VCR...but it worked and the second I got home, I started to look through the tape, screaming, "OH MY COLLINS! I don't care about some chubby kid throwing corn! I want Anthony and all his pretty friends! All I care about is effing Anthony...in every sense of the word!" And then I found it and began to scream and dance and sing and yell, "Yay, they're letting Ant talk!" ...So happy I am with the little things like a wonderful guy talking...

As for the shirt thing, I just wonder who owns it and who borrowed it...I'm loserly enough to wonder things like that.

Haha Incedniary, my reaction to seeing WYO was much the same. :-P It was early in the morning and I'd just woken up so my energy and coordination level isn't that wonderful so I started jumping up and cheering and then I promptly tripped on my shoe and fell over. Then I started cheering madly again. Safely sitting on my bed this time. :-P My dad and sis thought I was nuts for cheering so loudly but what do I care? It's Anthony and Adam singing live for Godsake. If that doesn't get a few good "HOORAYS" out of me I don't know what will. :-P

This thread is still here?

... wow.

Heh yeah that'll be a reaction to go down in the books. Maybe because it was so early in the morning and I was being spazzy but who knows. Damn funny though. That's going right up there with my CSI reaction (seeing Eric Szmanda with a rubber glove on his head and a mask with fangs drawn on rocking out to heavy metal using test tubes as drumsticks is ****ing hilarious, can I just say..) and my friend and my celebrate RENT moment. In a nutshell, it involves blaring La Vie Boheme in an outdoor eating courtyard and jumping on a table and dancing like two mad things. (which we are). :-P Ahh good times, good times......
