I've never seen the show hair, but I saw the movie, and spent most of it muttering "damn hippies."

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Hair!
Craptastic sound for the Tonys, but the last song was fun.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
My parents made me watch the movie in high school (as part of my cultural education), and I COULD NOT DEAL with the dirty hippies and lack of plot. I think I'd probably like it on Broadway now, as long as I didn't have an aisle seat.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I have resolved that the next time I hear some redneck grouse about hippies, I'm going to pipe up with "Yeah, who would ever want to listen to a long haired sandal-wearing anti-establishment peacenik yammer about love and tolerance? People like that ought to be strung up or something."
"Oh, wait..."

My big issue with Hair was several scenes where people got high while taking care of kids.

Also, I can not hear Oh What A Night without being taken back to my sorority days. Was that other places, or just for me? I'm literally chanting Greek letters in my head while I'm hearing it.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Ah, Pacific Coast time, how I hate you.
Man, the sound for the first big number was CRAP. And speaking of crap, Shrek the Musical looks really bad.

I was disappointed that they picked Mambo rather than America for the song to perform from West Side Story. I was really interested to hear how that one sounded in Spanish.
