plaid ducky Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 That's nifty... They'll probably sing an edited version of "Holiday." That's my guess. And yesterday, Johnny and Esper played a little something different for their guitar solo in honor of Halloween. Didn't quite fit with "Good Riddance" but whatever, they had fun. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1641504/TOYL-Halloween.mp3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScreamsInSilence815 Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 THE CAST WILL BE IN THE PARADE Awesome! Can't wait to check it out. And yesterday, Johnny and Esper played a little something different for their guitar solo in honor of Halloween. Didn't quite fit with "Good Riddance" but whatever, they had fun. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1641504/TOYL-Halloween.mp3 Omg love it! This is semi off-topic, but I love how the Good Riddance vocal solos are given to some ensemble members, rather than the main characters. It's a nice way to show off their voices individually since they tend to blend into a group in the actual show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plaid ducky Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 Declan & Fran Sancisco (Chase & Brian) are performing at Showgasm this Friday at 10pm at Ars Nova. Tickets are free. You can RSVP here (http://arsnovanyc.com/showgasm/rsvp/). The place is pretty small so if you wanna go, RSVP fast. And don't forgot Johnny has a gig on the 14th at Rockwood at 11pm.

plaid ducky Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS (BCEFA0 release its annual "Carols For A Cure" CD which can be purchased at most, if not all, Broadway theatres. It can also be ordered online at http://broadwaycares.stores.yahoo.net/caforcu20vo1.html. The CD has holiday-theme songs from the various Broadway shows of the 2009-2010 season as well as some others. The cast of "American Idiot" did the song "Do You Hear What I Hear?" BCEFA is an amazing charity and if you can, please purchase the CD. It's $20. Also, from now until the beginning of December, there will be a collection at Idiot and at other shows to raise money for BCEFA. I won't post the entire song, because that will defeat the purpose of this post, but I will post a sample to tease you a bit so that you'll order the CD. They do ship internationally. As Green Day fans, I think you'll find the arrangement interesting. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1641504/DYHWIH.mp3 And if $20 is too much, please feel free to donate as much (or little) as you want at https://www.broadwaycares.org/online_donation. Even $3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daughter.of.Rage.and.Love Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 omg it's September. <3 also, that is seriously pretty. I don't know the song, but that clip is pretty great. Pity they don't sell the tracks separately. Because I'm not paying nearly $30 for one song, haha. Good cause or not, I'm still a high school student with no job and not made out of money. Although it would probably only be sold in US iTunes anyway, like the Stand Up To Cancer thing (ohhh I'm still mad/sad about that. I want that track so badly ). Thanks for posting.

You've really never heard Do You Hear What I Hear before ...?! Wow, I've been hearing that song every Christmas since I was a baby, I'm quite certain! Different countries, different cultures, I love it. As for the song itself, OMG. Using Good Riddance as an acoustic backdrop is pure genius, holy shit. I might just buy this when I'm NYC next week!
