it would not have to be perfect

it would just be cool to see

i am sure they would love to do it

They're already tired and sick from doing what they've been doing and it would be a BIT unprofessional. Besides....Esper!St. Jimmy? I can't picture it at all.

Stark's voice is all wrong for Johnny's songs. Johnny probably wouldn't want to fly. Tony could play Will, but I doubt Esper could handle St. Jimmy's songs. Plus Esper's not one to take his shirt off for this show. LOL. :whistle:

They get Wednesday off, but seriously, having to do the parade on Thanksgiving morning and a show Thanksgiving night is... how shall I say... sucky.

Moffie, they have Wednesday off. :)

Oh, let's not get started on how cute Esper is. His tweets crack me up. My friend and I got him tweeting about Light and the Sufferer last night. Heh.

Ohhh, didn't see that. But still, with the illnesses and the parade.... :unsure:

ESPER. :wub: I saw. A-FREAKIN'-DORABLE. I swear he just sits around during his off-time and thinks of hilarious tweets. :P /silliness

Well to be fair, it IS early in the morning and cold as fuck, but they don't actually sing. All of the performances are lipsynched... at least the time that I was right down there and watching the performers. Reason # 4,352 that I hate the parade! But it's just too cold for them to actually be singing.

I know they won't be singing, just getting up at the crack of dawn to do the parade and then a show on Thanksgiving night. Wednesday off is great, but that's not the holiday.

I don't know much about the parade but if their performance is lipsynched, do they usually just used the cast recording or a whole different recording? I mean, Johnny's uber sick and probably won't do the parade. If they used the cast recording and say, did "American Idiot", it would be weird to hear Johnny's voice come out of Van's (or Chase's) mouth. Heh...

I don't think anyone else except for someone who has seen the show a bunch of times would even know.

Wow, John is that sick, eh? He's still out?

Meh. I don't think having to get up at 6am for the parade and performing that night is that bad. You have the ENTIRE day to sleep and whatever.... and most likely eat, lol.

That could be kind of funny! Like you said, only anyone who had seen the show might notice. Maybe they should have the girls lipsynch the boy's parts and vice versa. :lol:

That's a rough week ahead for them.

I don't think it's great when you're tired, sickly and sore as fuck. Don't they have call time earlier than 6 for the parade?

I worked a Thanksgiving Parade once in Detroit. Our call was 4:30AM, but then again, I was handling a balloon.

I don't think the parade is all that bad, it's having a show that night that just sucks. I'm not sure how many B'way shows are opened on the holiday, but it still sucks, lol.

Yeah, he's still out, as of yesterday. Esper and Rebecca came back, though. However, from what I heard, they probably should have stayed at home. Alysha was also out but that's because of her ankle and not from sickness. =/

Someone mentioned that they should sing "Do You Hear What I Hear." That would be cool. :wub:

Considering they just made that announcement of "Fat Pig" (the blurb above Billie's return) on Thursday (11/18), I would say it came out on Thursday or Friday.

And also it says that Armstrong "makes his RETURN" to American Idiot... unless I'm mistaken, he's already been in the show, so now... uh... the rumor is that he's returning lol. :)

Thank you, I was just curious as to when it came out. :)

How did they get snubbed when they aren't able to perform for CBS when they're already performing for NBC? I don't think you can do both.
