I was reading this big argument at Broadwayworld about whether it could be nominated for Best Score (or maybe Best Original Score) because it wasn't original. I'd hate to be in THAT committee meeting!

For the 47th Tonys, The Who's Tommy was nominated for both best musical (was robbed by Kiss of the Spiderwoman), Best Book of a Musical (again bit by the Spiderwoman) and Original Score written for the Stage (won -- tied with Spiderwoman). So based on precedent, it should be nominated in all three categories since the music from the album has to be adapted to work on the stage. Plus both Tommy and AI include new songs.

However, you never know with these theater types.

The Album Release Date is no longer a mystery thanks to Amazon.com

It drops 4/20 for $21.98 (thats for the CD, I'm sure the download will be much cheaper)

Thanks for posting. It adds up to almost $25 for me though, because of the shipping and all... oh well.

And that fb thing is pretty awesome :D

I didn't see either show on B'way, but I used to so listen to the Kiss of the Spiderwoman soundtrack! lol.

Love your video, Katie! Outstanding entry :).

I concur! I had about five or six favorites, but yours is among the top of them! Good luck to you!

Well, since I know a few of the people on the forum who submitted entries, I think I'll wait until after the competition to say. I am writing about the show and what's been happening with it for the past month now, and I mention the Youtube videos. I hope to have it posted today.

BTW, I'd like to amend what I said about the caricature. I forgot that it's a lot harder to get on the walls of Sardi's, so I kinda doubt that the band will get placed there. But heck. Who knows? Ha, but this list of past caricatures at Sardis says that everyone has the same thing in common: they have eaten at Sardis. haha. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_caricatures_at_Sardi%27s_restaurant

:blink:

poor her if she doesn't get chosen, and poor people who have to choose who, because there are some awesome videos out there, but this is something you'd feel bad about if you didn't pick her.
