The unsurpassed greatness of Spamalot

Monday... one more day...

Yesterday I went to see Spamalot, which is, quite simply, AMAZING. Though the trip there on the NY subways (which has a complicated system that apparently becomes very straightforward when you have lived in New York long enough to be able to laugh at newcomers' attempts to get places on the subway) was quite trying, the musical was a great reward. The songs are every bit as spectacular as I hoped, and it was great to finally see the scenes that link the songs. It was all I could do to keep from singing along... And can we talk about how great the cast is? Although unfortunately Hank Azaria is not longer playing Lancelot (and the newcomer hasn't got quite the wonderful voice) most of the cast is from the original show, and is spectacular. The most prominent cast member, playing King Arthur, is none other than Tim Curry. I love Tim Curry!!! It was completely amazing, sitting in the audience and seeing him on stage, live, the real Tim Curry...

Since then, however, I have done nothing short of eat and sleep. Oh, except for battle the damn internet connection, which HATES ME. For some reason I can't send e-mails via my mail application, but only through the internet. I only accepted that after spending forever trying to send the same e-mail over and over and over and over.... and over.... AAAAAH!!! Get me out of this hotel!!!!

So anyway, that's my exciting life... So for now, hello from New York!
