Sign, please!
Wouldn't be wonderful if they make an especial show or dvd as they did with Les Miserables 10th anniversary?

Phantom sucks.

The first organ run is good then they put that 5 minutes on a tape loop for 3 hours and that's the show!

uchh so boring

Actually, Roger Waters nicked the bassline for Echoes from the title song of Phantom of the Opera. He cunningly got round Andrew Lloyd Webber's ploy of not writing 'Phantom' until several years after the release of Meddle by using a special time machine developed by scientists at Thorn - EMI to travel into the future so he could nick some ideas from West End musicals.

He also nicked most of The Wall and all of his solo albums from Lloyd Webber while he was at it. (OK, I was making it up about Echoes, but I think the theory explains the Final Cut and msot of what followed alarmingly well.)

Doesn't matter if it isn't prog, it is art, and it is an amazing musical!

You've got my signature!  (Even though I'm Canadian, and don't have a chance of going to see it!  The DVD idea is cool.)
