OKAY - we are basically just a week away from the event we have been anticipating for so long!

I'm throwing it out there:

1) Will she have a new gown?

2) Will she unveil new repertoir?

3) Any special surprises?

4) Official video or sound recording?

5) What celebrities do we anticipate being there?

1. I sure hope so. I want this to be a special concert and hope we'll have at least one dress change.

2. Seems like she is already. Maybe not as much if she had recorded the album but I expect a couple of new songs.

3. Not sure

4. Probably not which SUCKS!

5. Those previous mentioned by Jean plus maybe Regis, Bob Mackie.

Pure, Unfounded Guesswork:

1) No

2) Probably a few new songs

3) No

4) No

5) Depends on how you define "celebrities," but Sondheim will be there.

Uh, yeah, Sondheim = God - I'd say that he's a celebrity. Noah and I saw him at Barbara Cook's concert so I'm sure he'll be at this one.

1) Will she have a new gown? YES!

2) Will she unveil new repertoir? SOME

3) Any special surprises? WE CAN HOPE

4) Official video or sound recording? ???

5) What celebrities do we anticipate being there? Sondheim, Regis & Joy, theatre people - it's a Monday night....

Martin Short is a possibility (if he isn't otherwise occupied with his upcoming show.)

Maybe Bliss will make an apperance. Not sure where she is these days.

LOL! I meant Sondheim: Celebrity/Genius/God will be there, AND in addition, other people who may or may not qualify as celebrities, depending on the looseness of your definition. Oh, now I'm getting very convoluted...

Well, his show is dark on Monday night and his Sunday show is a matinee. I know he's said he sees many of her shows. I'd like to see him attend.

I don't have a ticket yet but am looking forward to seeing his show as well.

Jean, I LOVE your new title by the way!

Let's see

1) I would think so (didn't the current concert gown debuted in Nov. 2001) but if the concert is 90 minutes or so probably only one.

2) I'm hoping for a good handful. A number from Bounce would be interesting. I don't think she publically performed many of the new Carnegie numbers before that concert. Being Alive at one of the Texas shows maybe

3) The new songs

4) I'd think we'd have heard

5) Who's been at the others -- Joel Grey, Sondheim, MTM, Laurents, Jonathan Schwartz, Andrea McArdle, Bob Mackie, Barbara Walters, Howard McGillan, Ann Hampton Calloway

I think Andrew Gans might be mistaken... she didn't sell out Radio City a few years ago, did she? I thought I remember reading that, while there were many many seats filled, that there were also many empty.

Yeah, but filled seats and being sold out are different. Those empty seats may have been purchased and the ticket holders did not show up for whatever reason.
Still, I agree because I remember at the time reading that it was *Almost* sold out. Which is still really great for the size of Radio City.

The overture is already playing in my mind...of course Noah is "singing" it so that helps!
