*withoutadoubt* Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 Same here miss_ing! Congrats to your friend! He certainly looks the part, in my opinion! We all appreciate the info and details. I am still not sure if I can go to this - I do have a ticket for Sept 4th. (If I can find it - I put in it a 'safe' place...) Looking forward to hopefully seeing it somehow!

Nova-Caine Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 That actor does have an amazing voice. I did catch some of the Queen musical We Will Rock You on tv over here in England for the Royal Variety Performance a couple of years ago.(Yeah i'm gonna be picky here can you tell him it's spelt Billie Joe sorry This is the first time I've ever corrected the spelling of Gods name Good luck with everything and I hope we in Europe get to see this production one day. Do you know if there is any chance of this being brought over to the UK/Europe?x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miss_ing Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 this was one of tony's greatest and proudest moments in the uk - performing 'bo-rhap' for the first time LIVE in it's entirety for the Queen's jubilee! - not even freddie did that!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fae2ZlP6LmQand sure, he knows about the name boob - the adjustment will be made on his website asap - on with the rehearsals for now though!best-ing x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J'net Posted July 15, 2009 Author Share Posted July 15, 2009 they are definitely seeking the "cream of the crop" for their show, that's for sure ....And that's as it should be. I am incredibly excited to see it! I've been thinking about it more and more, and something tells me it's going to be great! I just hope it's also a commercial success for the sake of everyone involved in its production. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookoutrebelgirl Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 This Tony Vincent kid is suppost to be playing St. Jimmy? He looks way to wimpy to me and his voice sounds like hes strait out of a boy band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miss_ing Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 being that he's in his thirties he's hardly a 'kid' AND tony is a dynamic performer - he can turn his voice in any direction - from sugary pop to all out rock! -whatever direction the role demands at the time. i don't think GD (or Queen) would have chosen 'wimpy boy band' material to represent the kind of characters in their shows, do you? there's too much at stake here. give them credit! the audition process was intense and they chose the one who was right for the role -the one who could cut IT. of course, you're entitled to your opinion, and there will always be critics -but perhaps hold off with your personal judgments until AFTER you've seen the show.-after day one of rehearsals yesterday, tony has said on Facebook that 'this show is going to completely slam!'http://www.facebook.com/tonyvincentmusicexciting times!-ing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
