Firstly, Robbie I apologise for kind of stealing your thunder and making a video- but I really felt like I had to be part of it.
However I think it's started the snowball you and I were thinking of. I got this through a YouTube message earlier today. I think you should all check it out.
I thought it was a really beautiful message from a [tos]ser all the way in Holland!
I think we're also starting to show that this is more than just theatre jokes!
Spread the word peoples! Let's get making some video responses!!!! Red Shirts and Duct Tape ON! And if you can't make a video, share the videos that have been made by others.
Let's spread this message!
Now a practicle guide to how you can make a film without a video camera: PC: Ok so pretty much all Windows operating systems that I'm aware of come with the basic movie maker software. This is the perfect starting point, and you won't need a video camera.
First off: Take a photo of yourself in red tshirt and [tos] duct tape. Secondly: Import this photo into movie maker. Thirdly: (This may be the hard part if you don't have a microphone, but give it a go, most laptops have them these days, or you can get them real cheap from like $2 Shops...are they called that in the US? Anyway!) Record what you think about [title of show] and what it's about to you. Fourthly: You can add fancy titles to the front and back of it if you want. Fifthly: Upload to YouTube, then find all the other red-tee vids and set your video as a 'video response' to these vids. So they all link up like a chain!
Ta-Dah! You're spreading the message!
If you're on a Mac you can do the same thing, but with iMovie...but then there's also a good chance you have a webcam built into your Mac...so video it up peeps!
I'm the "Christopher D." Susan is talking about in their latest blog :]
I sent her that tidbit via facebook!
I love America. Just because I think gay dudes should be allowed to adopt kids and we should all have hybrid cars doesn't mean I don't love America.

Not sure if anyone on here went to the Sirius show that [tos] on Monday at the Times Square Visitor's Center, but I was there and taped "Way Back To Then".
I'm kinda getting sick with all the threads about the show closing and I think it's important that we still keep this one alive and kicking.
The show isn't over yet and the cast still wants us there for support.
I was at the show last night ironically enough and when I turned my phone on afterwards, it practically exploded.
Jeff, Hunter, Heidi, Susan, Larry and Michael are all ok.
They had the same response which was, "We're not done yet. It's just an ending to a chapter."
In fact, here is Hunter's status message from Facebook... "Hunter Bell is so proud and wants y'all to tell 900 people to come rock the Lyceum hard with tosser love!"
WR: "Jeff, are you going get this game when it comes out?"
JB: "I wouldn't be able to write another musical..." ~NY ComicCon 2/8/09
I will be there tossing the love today, too. Thanks for letting me know last night, WR.
The last vampire is the mother of all vampires and that is the vampire of despair. It'll wake you up at 4am to say things like:
Who do you think you are kidding?
You look like a fool!
No matter how hard you try, you'll never be good enough!
Why is it that if some dude walked up to me on the subway platform
and said these things, I'd think he was a mentally ill as-h-le,
but if the vampire inside my head says it,It's the voice of reason!
DIE VAMPIRE, DIE--[SUSAN in tos]
[title of show] has done what no-one thought it had...it is truly an inspiration to all of Broadway....
...people like to think that it should have stayed off-broadway, but the point was to get to the great white way, and it did, which is a whole heck of a lot more than this message board can say...
...thanks [title of show], for creating indspiration, creating joy, and creating memories that won't fade when it closes, it will leave a true legacy on the great white way...
and THANK GOD I booked my NYC trip for October 2-16 so I will see it a few times, and on closing!!!

New twitter message: "hey tossers, love you guys! Come see us! tell 9 people, twitter 'em, facebook 'em, send an owl. more tickets we sell, longer we'll be around" Updated On: 9/20/08 at 05:26 PM
The Heidi commercial just came on and made me smile. This show may be ending, but it's not over yet and I'm going to try my hardest to go out there in all my [tos]ness glory.
I am scraping together every penny I can to fly across the country and be there for closing. I haven't been to NYC for about 3 years and wasn't planning on it for at least another 2, but these people have touched my life and I know I'll regret it if I don't find a way to see this show in person before it's too late.
There were people at the Flea Market in [tos] shirts handing out fliers for the show.
Were they affiliated or part of a street team? I want in!
I love America. Just because I think gay dudes should be allowed to adopt kids and we should all have hybrid cars doesn't mean I don't love America.

The great people at supertossers made a petition to try to get [title of show] on Ellen. Even though the chances of it happening are slim, let's give it a shot!
