Seeing that "thank you" video they posted on facebook makes me even sadder, I can't believe it ends tonight!

I've changed my mind and I've decided to go. Not sure if I'm seeing the show. I'm going to try for lotto if they do it but I wont win anyway. I just feel bad if I'm not there it will be Feb 26th all over again

GO if you have a chance! :runaround: What would we all give to be there tonight...

Oh.my.god. Thanks for posting, I haven't seen it before...

I was like okay, okay this is so nice of them but then Rebecca started talking and I was like :cry: :cry: Then Billie appeared and I had a mini heart attack xD

Lights out Broadway... Hello national tour.

:cry:

PM me your address and i'll post you some :D

Rage and Love

Awesome! Thanks so much! :D :D

PM is on its way.

Yeah, I saw it. I laughed my head off when they grabbed Billie and he's like "Hi fans!" :lol:

but besides that... nooooo it's closing :( :(

Such a weird idea. After a year of non-stop shows, and an even longer time of the American Idiot musical existing (when did it start in Berkeley? Like September 09 or something?), and now it's gone after tonight.

There's still the tour, but that's kind of different, with different actors and it only playing for a couple of weeks max. at eacht place and stuff...

Even though I've never seen it, I'm still gonna miss it. Miss the threads for the musical, people's stories, the occasional recording of part of a song...

But regardless of the sad feelings it caused, I did love the video :wub:

I wonder if they know about the quite large amount of fans outside of the New York area who love the musical as well but can't see it..

(since in the video they only address the fans who've seen it. Like everything on the AI Musical facebook...)

So I just saw the video on facebook...and yeah... :cry: I'm so proud of them, I hope them all the best after this amazing journey!! Even if I'm not there, I still have chills haha definitely one remarkable Broadway show that I've ever seen and I will never forget it. I can't wait to see it again once it goes on tour! :happy:

That thank you video on facebook is so nice. I didn't expect to see Billie in it too, haha.

Oh my god. I just can't believe it's closing. The last show will be tonight! Wow. It feels like the end of an era, such an amazing time. It makes me sad just thinking about it.

I didn't get a chance to see the show, but I've been reading all about it from the start. Watching videos, reading stories, everything, makes me feel included for some reason. I can't imagine how it must've been like to actually see the show myself! It's sad tonight's the last show on Broadway, but I'm so excited right now at the same time! :D Excited about what's going to happen at the show, all the shenanigans after it, and of course (hopefully) Green Day playing songs after it's over. All this makes me realize why I am a fan of this band.

Can't wait to read about the last show and all the great things that will happen. Stories, and especially videos.. yeah, can't wait!

I tried soo hard not to cry today, but when I saw the video.. I failed. And today is Easter so I've got family over and I had to awkwardly go upstairs to weep. :lol:

uhhh.. today is going to be a challenging day for all of us..

<3 Yeah, I wanted to stay up on GDC as well, like with the tour threads, but I'm tired already. Instead I will listen to the cast record on repeat from now on, and when I'm off to bed. I can't stop thinking about the show, so with listening to music I can at least pretend I'm at the show :lol:

I think I'm gonna try and stay up for a while as I don't have work tomorrow.

I feel sad that it is finishing as I never had a chance to see it in person but the kind of sadness is weird. It's like when someone you work with leaves or a friend you have moves away somewhere else. You know they still exist but they just aren't there anymore. =/ The thank you video was nice. I could hear Billie in the background throughout it and I knew he would pop up at some point! :lol:

BTW, I was told GD will be playing from 9 to 11 tonight. So, yeah... :lol: That's pretty long if true.

Gahhhh, I think I'm going to have to go in my room and cry today just to relieve all this tension! Happy Easter. :lol: That video made me tear up. So beautiful. And I know the boys are going to give everything they can to the last day of Idiot on Broadway. What an event.

Why am I thinking that, if they actually end up playing a two-hour set tonight, this thread is going to become this year's version of the tour threads? Everyone is going to be on the lookout for twitter updates and pictures :lol:
