Your Thoughts: Jim Henson's Musical World at Carnegie Hall

That video was great!

What a great find! That made my morning. Love the balcony view, and getting to see Steve, Dave, and the others in action.

I'm feeling so teased about the Fraggle part. I've seen one bit of vid with no sound, and now this with sound, but just wee little snippets and you can only really hear the chorus. I want to hear Wembley! Fraggles! Somebody give me Fraaaagglllles! (*ahem* sorry, I'm fine. Really.)

Just watched a few clips from it and I cried. Yep anything that has to do with Jim I pretty much loose it. And don't even get me started when Paul and everyone sang Rainbow Connection.

I was just on YouTube looking for more videos when I found this

A short clip featuring the Fraggles!
The Wembley puppet looks fantastic.

I am dying to see the Fraggle part! I have seen pictures and very small clippings! Did any body happen to catch the full Fraggle part? I want to hear Wembley!!!

Oh thank you, thank you, thank you for finding and posting that! They look and sound fabulous. Yay for Wembley! I wonder if they rebuilt him especially for this concert? Would they do that?

According to John Tartaglia, the Hensons were rebuilding Wembley for their own usage. When John found out, he demanded to be able to put it in this concert. So, yes, this the new Wembley's first appearance.

I cried through the whole show...Understandable.

Oh god I miss Jim so...;(

That's just the best. God bless John Tartaglia! Of course, now I'm wondering what the Henson Company wanted a Wembley for. Mystery upon mystery!
