| Spamalot!
Just saw Spamalot last night - it was hysterical. I thought it was great, and even my wife (who isn't a Python fan) was cracking up. I hope it won't be considered sacriligous, but I think it was better than the movie.
I won't give anything away in the plot except to say that most of the funny bits from the film made it to the show, and there was a lot of new and funny material (including mocking Broadway).
Always look on the bright side of life!

| Sometimes - and this is one of them - it's real good being me. (Even in nosebleed altitude in the theatre). RebelFencer - if you're a fan, get tickets and schedule a trip to NY!
Weeeeee're Knights Of The Round Table! We dance whene'er we're able!

I so want to see it, but my chances of getting to NY anytime this century are slim to none.  Maybe it will have a traveling company...

You got to have a special trip once in a while. Go visit FoTL and Jeff while you're in the city and come home happy! | |

| New Jersey is not New York.
The Garden State sucks.

But the airport in Grand Rapids is still a metro airport with flights to New York! | |

| It has its benefits: if you live on W45th street, you get a wonderful view of the Weehawken skyline). If you live in NJ, you get a view of NYC's!

I lived in Ann Arbor for 11 years. Quite the unique place; I don't think there's anything quite like it this side of California. Be sure to wear your Birkenstocks. | |

See... Jeff... You're bragging that you can look at us...
A testament to the sadness that is New Jersey.

| Hey, I grew up in Brooklyn, went to school and worked in NY, and fenced at NYFC. At heart, I'm still a New Yorker!

Maybe they'll find a cure someday...
