He did sing them but the rude words were quieter

He is 9 {nearly 10}

It was the actions as he was singing that surprised me

He is so excited

He has seen chitty, joseph, in west end

{and oliver in touring company local theatre}

I'm so glad that you all had such a great time. I feel almost responsible. Actually the thing that's making me happy is the fact that I posted a suggestion/tip and it was taken up.

RTKangaMummy · 25/02/2005 11:42

Oh we don't go til saturday

But Thanks

RTKangaMummy you must have the 10 year anniversary cast on cd then.. I have that among others.. but I think it's the best. This is the once where the actress playing 'The Master In The House's wife (can't remember the French surname off the top of my head) sings the rude words quietly.. and they have much more of an impact and the crowd are roaring with laughter!

I hope have a great time tomorrow. Please feed back! I am insanely jealous!

DVD 10th Anniversary one from RAH

CD is the one HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE COMPLETE SYMPHONIC INTERNATIONAL RECORDING

So is there a CD of the concert?

If so from where?

Do you have code number please?

SleepyJess · 25/02/2005 16:42

That's the one! Doesn't really roll off the tongue does it!(Unless you are French I guess!) That lady (as mentioned below) is great! I love thast case.. but I may be biased as it's the only one I have 'seen' because have only seen the vid!

That should have said 'i love that cast' can't type today..

And further blushing... .. I have to admit, DH downloaded it for me off the net.. I wouldn't have it otherwise! I only know it's the same cast as on the video because I have several versions downloaded and the '10th anniversary' one is easily recognisable. I think Ruthie Hensall is by far the best Fantine.. and the girl who plays Eponine with this cast is fanastic too. AND I have always found Michael Ball to be 'more my mum's taste' type singer/actor.. ..but I love him as Marius!

RTKangaMummy · 25/02/2005 17:12

i have looked and the RAH recording is dicontinued

Do you know where he downloaded it from?

So is yours the live recording of the RAH concert?

I have never downloaded music

How do you do it?

OP posts:
RTKangaMummy · 25/02/2005 17:14

Yes Michael Ball is a difficult one

Saw him In CHITTY BANG BANG which was brill

Love him too as Marius

I love Javert's voice the best.

SleepyJess · 25/02/2005 17:18

DH got it from a site called DC++ but downloading from there is not really straightforward - you have to have 'stuff to exchange'.. (it's all a bit complicated.. I leave it all to DH!)

Dh said he will download itand stick it on a CD for anyone who wants it, if you CAT/email me your addresses (no charge obv!).

RTKangaMummy · 25/02/2005 17:25

OH WOW that would be so brill

I can send you a blank CD with 650MB but it is only 74 minutes long so don't think that will be long enough will it?

Wow you are so kind

Will send you a CAT

OP posts:
SleepyJess · 25/02/2005 17:26

Don't worry about the blank CD! We have loads.. Will await CAT

Anyone else want it?

MunchedTooManyMarsLady · 25/02/2005 17:26

shows where my brain is. I was convinced that today was Monday and that we'd just had Saturday. Ah well... the upside is that it's the weekend. Have fun tomorrow!

SleepyJess · 25/02/2005 17:28

Just to warn you though.. it's not 'perfect', as it's from other people's MP3s so some of the songs finish a little abruptly etc.. and they are not all in correct order.. is this ok?

RTKangaMummy · 25/02/2005 17:32

MTMMMBR that is ok

Am sure will have brill fun.

As I was banging on about earlier in the thread, I have wanted to see this for over 10 years!! And have had the video for 10 years..and known all the songs since longer ago than that! Just recently I have been having a real Les Mis phase again.. and been playing the cds in the car.. and the kids have learnt all the songs.. and .. and..

...calm my best friend has just rang me and tols me she has booked two fourth row tickets for us to go to London on Wednesday and see it!!!! I cannot believe it! What a friend!I have been a bit down and stressed just lately.. so she goes and does this!!!

I can't wait... I will be able to discuss it properly with the rest of you!

RTKangaMummy · 26/02/2005 20:44

OMG It was brill

DS loved it and so did we

He got told to Shhhh and be quiet from grumpy woman if front He just whispered a question to me.

Anyway I told him he better just sing in his head

But for the last song I told him he could sing

They got standing ovation

DSs Trumpet teacher told him he knew the trombone player so at the end we went done to say hello but the conductor said he would be "on the way to the pub" so he would say hello to him for DS

Javert was very good, my fav character I think.

SJ you will have fantastic time on Wed.

Is it the matinee or evening?

Thanks for telling us about the tickets MunchedTooManyMarsLady

ha, I wonder if you sat next to the same grumpy woman as we did - perhaps she has a seat at every performance.

Glad you enjoyed it!

MunchedTooManyMarsLady · 27/02/2005 09:35

I'm so glad that you and your DS enjoyed it! You'll need to start thinking about what you want to book at the end of the summer.

SleepyJess · 27/02/2005 12:03

Hi RTKM. It's the matinee. Have just come online to order myself something to wear off my catalogue,, and get it express delivered.. needs must and all that!

Glad you had a great time! Cripes I am probably going to be told to shhhhh then! There is no way I amnot going to be able to prevent myself from singing along.. surely we should be able to! .. I have been waiting for this for years (and don't have the best voice I have to say!) Just because it's called 'Les Miserables', it doesn't have to attract all the miserable sods in London who don't allow any audiience participation!!!
