Hi again everbody,
So today I sang NGD in front of Joey McIntyre... How ridiculous is that? Talk about pressure... I was contestant number 11. I didn't win, but it's cool. Getting to sing in front of Stephen Schwartz, Joe Mantello, Bernie Telsey, Shoshana, and Joe Mac was definitely enough to totally and 100% make my year. Thanks so much to all of you who came out to see us finalists. I got to meet so many people and had a blast!! (Hi Gaby). So it was a cool day, I'm sure a lot of you were there. I included some pics below. Quick story: I had to pee so bad, as I had about 4 Venti teas and a few bottles of water. I went into the Gershwin and of course the bathrooms were closed, but I had a staff pass that all of the finalists got, so they actully let me in to use the bathroom!! Needless to say, the temptation to peek into the theatre was too great to resist, so I opened the door and snapped a picture before I ran to the bathroom. The theatre was dark of course, and I had to photoshop the pic just to see anything, but the experience of standing alone in that theatre with just a bare bulb on the stage was wild...surreal. When I got a second to talk to Joey McIntyre, I told him that I broke into the theatre and he laughed. Anyway, I'd love to hear anybody's take on the whole day, and again, thanks so much to all of you who came over to say Hi and who rooted for me onstage today. The BWW community is the best!!
Adam
