I saw the musical Saturday night and I figured I would come here to put in my two cents since everyone around me is tired of hearing me talk about it :P

I am a huge Green Day fan, obviously, and also a fan of musicals so I was excited to see this, to say the least. However, even being such a fan of both, it was way better than I expected. It's really hard to describe what it's like to see it. I've heard people tell the haters that you can't judge it based on the cast album or television performances and I have to agree completely. I fell in love pretty much immediately and I want to see it as many times as possible. It was amazing to me to see how far that album has come. It is music that is near and dear to my heart and has been the soundtrack of years of my life. To see it transform into something equally as big and powerful as the album but so different brought tears to my eyes. I noticed new things in music that I have listened to countless times. There were nuances in Billie's lyrics that I have somehow missed until now. I felt like it added so many dimensions to something that was already multi-dimensional. Lyrics that I thought I knew the meaning to suddenly have so much more meaning than before. Not to mention that the cast is kick-ass. I know that it's different and I get that many people hate it or think that they do. But to anyone who considers themselves a Green Day fan, I feel that you owe it to yourselves and them to give it a shot. If you hate it, then cool, it's not for you. But if you don't at least give it a chance, you may be missing out on something that you wrote off too soon.

It really was an amazing time that I wouldn't trade for the world. Rather than the musical being a totally different take on Green Day, it felt like an expansion to Green Day and their music. It was just an incredible experience that I think every fan should at least try.

so so true! i felt EXACTLY the same way after i saw it. i think its better to not watch anything related to it before seeing it so you have no pre-conceived ideas. you really have NO idea what its like till you are sitting in those broadway seats. well well said bailey89!!!

Not sure if this is what she was talking about, but Aspen has also given this update:

"aspenvincent: Was gonna go on for Libby again, but now rebecca is ill... So now Leslie is on 4 rebecca, Lorin 4 libby, libby 4 Mary, and me 4 Leslie."

Yeah, it's what she was talking about. However, she corrected herself; she's in Leslie's track and Lorin's on Libby.

Ah. Well, I was going by her tweet. :)

BTW, I heard a really fuzzy recording of Libby and Aspen doing "Last Night on Earth" and "Too Much Too Soon." Libby sounds fantastic and Aspen was fierce. :wub:

So I guess Lea Michelle is there tonight. Interesting, she had a Glee concert in Phoenix on Sunday and has another one in LA this Thursday, so she went back to NYC for her break? That's more long flights than I'd care for in 5 days
