I am so sad RENT is closing soon on Broadway. The music is so fabulous and I never tire of listening to the soundtrack. At the Tony's last night there was a tribute to RENT. There is one song from the current cast(I think one of them is Tamyra Gray-one of my favorites on her AI season) and the other song is by the original Broadway cast singing seasons of love-my very favorite song of the whole play. Jesse martin seems to be missing though. He was a great COllins. Idina Menzel and Taye Diggs are cute in the clip

I didn't know they were doing a tribute to RENT on the Tony Awards, or I would have watched. I have the DVD movie and have watched it a few times, but I sure wish I had seen it on Broadway. Oh well... (And I like Adam with longer hair, too! )

I watched the awards for the numbers. Since I don't have a chance to go to broadway shows, this was a real treat to see !!!!

I saw RENT Japan tour in 2004. 'No Day But Today' is my favorite, too. I wanted to see it again on Broadway at last. Too sad. This musical got not Tony award but the Pulitzer Prize too, right? That musical was sensational to me! Thanks mbucksfan for posting thoes vids. Love it!!

It is nice that there is a movie so that you can see most of the original characters and the soundtrack.. Even so, I liked the live version better. It was more raw and gritty and more energetic.
