I agree DTM.

Oh....my friend Patrick Agan said that when he visited Tony Randall years ago to interview about his experience working with Jayne Mansfield...Patrick was smoking....eventually Tony (this was before his fanatic phase) offered Pat an ugly ceramic ashtray....Pat said it was hideous.

"Use this," said Tony, "Kim Novak made it for me when we doing 'Boys Night Out' ...."

Not Tony Award anecdote...but funny...I thought.

Was that WONDERFUL TOWN number supposed to show off Donna Murphy? I would rather hear lyrics and see a number than what I just heard and saw. Wouldn't convince me to buy a ticket...in fact, might do the opposite.

I thought the set-up for the number was kind of cute, with the "villiage types" at the cafe table.

Thirty minutes.

My housemate checked his e-mail at Comcast.net. When he logged out, he didn't close the browser and I saw who/what show won best score & book. Darn, no suspence in those categories for me.

Anne Heche wins ugliest dress of the night - so far! From me, that is.

True DTM...but you don't see that in the theatre...and even then....

Thirty minutes.

And counting! They're showing more and more commercials for the Tony© Awards during "60 Minutes" as it gets closer to 8:00 PDT.

Give me Priscilla Lopez any day as Mary J. Blinge interprets "What I Did for Love." Ugh!

You want to know what I don't like?

...

Okay, I'll tell you anyway. I don't like it when winners mention all the other nominees in their acceptance speech. I guess that they feel it's being gracious, but to me it just comes off as disingenuous.

Better they should mention their lawyers? Oh that's sincere.

Not unless it's pro bono.

They were gonna get Jennifer Lopez but she's on her honeymoon.

Again.

Nicole Kidman is presenting Best Actor in a Musical. Coinicidence?. . . . . I don't think so.

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #223 on:** June 06, 2004, 07:38:45 PM »

Hmm... I'm guessing there's a new songbook (folio) out called the "Tony Awards Songbook" (probably a Hal Leonard publication) and/or maybe a new compilation CD... Time to check out Amazon.com

bk · « **Reply #224 on:** June 06, 2004, 07:42:32 PM »

Fifteen minutes.

The CBS promos are hilarious - trying to make it look like some MTV show.

Matt H. · « **Reply #226 on:** June 06, 2004, 07:50:08 PM »

I could not be happier about the winners for Best Actor and Actress in a Musical.

bk · « **Reply #227 on:** June 06, 2004, 07:51:08 PM »

Ten minutes.

With the screamers up in the balconies, it's more like the American Music Awards.

Of course all the errant and truant will show up tomorrow with the usual excuses - I was here, I was there, I was this, I was that, and we shall laugh and laugh and then we shall laugh some more. Last year at this time, no one was errant and truant, there were no excuses, and, if memory serves, we had over six hundred posts.

It sucks to be me.....LOL. Nice puppet make out with Hugh.

It's early yet.

BK did you eat?

Matt H. · « **Reply #233 on:** June 06, 2004, 07:54:15 PM »

You have five minutes before the show begins. I have five minutes left.

Jrand73 · « **Reply #234 on:** June 06, 2004, 07:54:37 PM »

Oh and Marissa's black dress with feather trim.....beee---yooo--tee-full!

Well, an interesting Tonys to be sure. Not exactly sure what to make of it, but the fallout will be very, very interesting.

Question: Will I avoid reading HHW until I get to see the Tony Awards?
It should be finished and taped for me in a few minutes. Can I wait until tomorrow to collect the tape?
Decisions decisions.
If I avoid HHW, shall I be slapped fromm here to eternity?
Our morning paper (not mourning paper) headlines this morning:
"From Hollywood To Eternity". "World Mourns Soviet Buster"
Another rewrite of history.
