4 years ago today, I was as nervous as all get out for Carrie.I so wanted her to do well.She ended up doing more then just well,she did magnificently well

but seems so much longer ago

I couldn't even watch the 1st time with anyone I was so nervous for her. I had seen all the hate and wanted her to show them that she could do it well - and I agree, she did magnificently well!

It does seem a long time ago, but Carrie was totally awesome. I was bursting with pride & tears of joy & still do watching the DVD.

I rewatched the making of SOML special last night.:)
It was great seeing all the behind the scenes stuff again.I still marvel that 16 weeks from air date they were just casting the children!! Gosh they did not give themselves much time for rehearsals.I think the show they put on last year started full rehearsals in July, SOML started in mid October.What were they thinking.o_O

The fact that they had so little time makes it all the more impressive what they were able to do.

It is amazing how well Carrie did considering so little time to rehearse and the pressure of the show being primarily on her. Most people would have melt under those circumstances. Bravo Carrie.

*sigh* I was really looking forward to this.I love this musical, but Alice Cooper?
Brings to mind the casting of Christopher Walken in PP.What a disaster that was.

I know it seems like an odd choice, but Alice will be singing a song from the show, not his own material, and he won't be wearing his usual makeup. I saw the Broadway musical version a couple of years ago, and it was fantastic, so I'm really looking forward to the live TV version.

I found a recording of Alice Cooper singing Herod's song:

Four years ago today @NBCUniversal asked me to create a drawing for The Sound of Music Live on @nbc . To this day it's still one of my favorites. People often ask me where they can buy a print. Unfortunately only 75 were ever made so if you own one consider yourself very lucky!
