    I return and Music

    Hey Group, I haven't posted since January of this year (has it been that long?) so I thought I'd drop by and see what's new. I'm totally jazzed by the release of Season One of the Muppet Show and Fraggle Rock on DVD. I can't buy them just yet, since I'm going on a trip to England next...

    Avenue Q Not Touring After All

    Today on Playbill.com it was announced that Avenue Q will not tour as previously expected. http://www.playbill.com/news/article/86723.html It will have a "permanent" home in Las Vegas. This is a bummer because a lot of folks hoping it would come to their town will miss out. I've been...

    Just saw Little Shop and Ave Q

    I just got home from NY. We saw Wicked, Avenue Q and Little Shop of Horrors. First Little Shop: The plant was definitely spectacular. I can't say a lot without giving a lot away, but it was very impressive. I wanted to wait at the stage door and meet the puppeteers, but I didn't think...

    I want a Muppet Movie Sing Along

    Over on Tough Pigs there's a story about a Muppet Movie sing along. How fun would that be? There's going to be a Wizard of Oz sing along at my local performing arts center. There are some people from work trying to arrange a group to go. It seemed way too hokey to me, then I read about...

    I bought a PT Cruiser today!

    Just thought I'd share with you guys. No special reason, I just don't have anything else to do, and I spent all my money, so.... I bought my very first brand-new-never-owned-by-anyone-else car today! An electric blue PT Cruiser that I have named Betty. I'm still reeling from the experience...

    Mel Gibson interview with Diane Sawyer

    I know everyone is talking about the Disney news, so I'll be surprised if anyone finds this, but... Did anyone see the interview with Diane Sawyer and Mel Gibson last night? Did he seem like he was on something, or what? Jen

    Little Shop of Horrors

    I'm planning a trip to New York the first week of may, and when I looked at the telecharge website for tickets to Little Shop they're only on sale through April 25. Does anyone know if the show is closing? Supposedly the run is open-ended.

    Is anyone interested in a great books thread?

    I just read Dan Brown's "Angels and Demons" and I loved it! It was a great adventure with several interesting twists and the author obviously spent a great deal of time doing his research. The plot is about an attempt to blow up the Vatican. The story features the same character as the...

    Was there ever a Muppet "Hobbit" planned?

    Watching my LOTR videos, I couldn't help but wonder if Henson ever considered doing their own version of these stories. Maybe not on the same scale as what we are seeing now, but does anyone know if Henson ever looked at doing "The Hobbit?" I'm thinking around the time of The Dark Crystal. I...

    Muppets and Shakespeare

    I just got back from a trip to London--great city, very nice people-- where I saw a show called The Complete Works of Shakespeare (abridged) by the Reduced Shakespeare Company. They do 37 works in 97 minutes. It's completely hysterical. I'd recommend it to anyone without reservation. It...
