[newsImage]050110_theonion.jpg[/newsImage]The Onion (a satirical news organization) recently published an article with some plot highlights from the American Idiot musical (don't worry, no spoiler alerts). Of course, these highlights were written in the famous Onion style and have been altered to be humorous. I find these "highlights" to be quite hilarious and hopefully some of you will get a kick out of them as well.

The article can be read by clicking here.

In other news, American Idiot cast members John Gallagher Jr., Michael Esper, an Stark Sands were on the morning show, Regis & Kelly last Monday. The trio performed 'Wake Me Up When September Ends.' The video can be watched below.



Thanks to Andrew C and MT for the news

And by the way, I know most people will say shit in the comments like "they cannot sing", "this is terrible to watch", blah blah blah. You know what? This musical thing is awesome. No, I haven't gotten a chance to see it yet but from what the reviews say, what people on the forum say, and what the staff here at GDA say, it sounds pretty fucking mind-blowing. So if you don't want to hear/read about it, then ignore it... don't comment. Nobody wants to read that stuff.
