[newsImage]042110_musical.jpg[/newsImage] Last night was opening night for the American Idiot Musical on Broadway. The New York Times has written a really great review for the show.


Read the full review.

J'net and I were lucky enough to attend opening night and the after party, my sincerest thanks to all the wonderful people who helped me be at this show. I wish I could have taken all of you with me. And i owe a major thanks to Beth, J'net and Cheryl - for convincing me to come in the first place, helping me get here, and giving me a place to stay. I owe each of you more than I could ever repay.

The musical itself was mind-blowing. I know a lot of fans have been sketchy about seeing a production like this, but you really need to see it to appreciate its greatness. We had a chance to talk to Billie Joe last night, and he said something along the lines of "if the people who aren't sure about it got a chance to see, it'd change their views on what Broadway could be". And it absolutely would.

If you're a Green Day fan, and more specifically a fan of the music and story shared in American Idiot, there's no way you could be more pleased seeing this show. The story, the performers, it's all incredible. J'net and I will work on a full review which we'll post up next week some time.
