[WorryRock02]

but after this...will Tony come back as St.Jimmy??

[Moffie]

but after this...will Tony come back as St.Jimmy??

Yes. He's taking time off right now but he will be back later on in October. Actors take time off for personal things and for vacation so they can rest up and don't burn out.

[Laura!]

I'm so excited for him tonight. I can't wait to hear how he did.

I wonder will Mike and Tré show up for this to see Billie's broadway debut?

I bet they will.

[Undómiel]

At least Billie's hair is back to black for this...

[HoneyDo666]

It would be kind of douche-y if Mike and Tre weren't there.

This is going to be so incredible!

[Smbcf]

I'M SO EXCITED! And I'm not even going I can't wait to hear about it all! Omg, this is actually happening.

[†...HAUSHINKA...†]

I'm curious just about how his hair will be...XD

[veroPasalacqua]

Im scared about his hair... XD

[unexplainedbacon]

Oh, I really hope there will be videos of the performance posted.xD I'm soo excited to see what He'll be like dancing round the stage with all those moves. :eyebrow:

[HoneyDo666]

As an eternal teenie, I am super-excited to see pictures of the Jimmy haircut on Billie! Lots and lots of pictures!

[pasalaska]

I'm stupidly excited for this I cant even describe it

I need photos D:

[bollard_11]

Dying to see photos of this!!!

I hope they'll invent another hair-cut 'cause I think BJ wouldn't be good with the tony vincent one...

[veroPasalacqua]

lmao imagine billie with tony v's hair that would be awful.

But I think he wont shave his head like this.

I think he dyes his hair black and do sth. crazy with them ;D

but not shave.. XD

[jetsrule128]

Is Aspen Vincent in the show this week or is she on vacation also?

[lawrahday]

its only 10am in nyc right now, when is the earliest performance? i'm dying to see this? wonder if he's a bag of nerves...its so different for him

[sept1idiot]

i'm sure this has been answered here already but does anyone know if his run includes the saturday 2 pm show? I assume so, but my friend just got cheapo tickets through her school for the Saturday matinee and i just want to make sure i'll be seeing billie! Thanks guys!

also... wonder if he's gonna go for the half shaved look.... ?

[SuzieCreamCheese]

So when are you going?

I'm going to the Saturday matinee - if anyone wants to catch a snack or sight see or hang out, let me know

Dawn, which airport are you flying into? cause if you stay at one of the hotels near the airport they may have a shuttle you can take to a subway station.la guardia would be preferable. its a nicer area than JFK

Good to know.

AH! IT'S FUCK TIME tonight like NEVER before! I'm so proud & nervous for him!!!

I'm looking forward to whatever may come forth from American Idiot on Broadway's fb page & twitter!

This is gonna be so amazingly historic!! I would expect Tre & Mike & Billie's family there to support him!

Oh man, this is gonna be EPICally Awesome as Fuck! (Best phrase ever Abbey!)

Heard there is going to be some "Broke as Fuck" signs somewhere at the shows.

Break a leg St. Billie!

[Tripe]

Is Aspen Vincent in the show this week or is she on vacation also?

Pretty sure she is out with Tony for the same "personal" reasons followed by vacation. I think I saw on her twitter that she was packing to leave within the last day or so.

its only 10am in nyc right now, when is the earliest performance? i'm dying to see this? wonder if he's a bag of nerves...its so different for him

I'll bet he is a bag of nerves! Only one performance tonight, at 7:00pm. Call is probably at 5pm or so? Eeek, wishing him all the best for tonight!

[Daughter.of.Rage.and.Love]

Billie must be pretty nervous by now, haha.

Well, break a couple of legs.

[lizziebix]

Why do I have butterflies in my stomach? I'm not performing on Broadway for the very first time like he is? Yet, I'm a nervous wreck.

Break a leg, Billie. I (well, we all) know you'll be spectacular!

Haha, I'm nervous as well. x)

funny how that works.

[warding_off_regrets]

Does anyone want to make a list of who is going on what days and where they are sitting?

I know this has been done for other events where lots of GDCers will be attending, and I think it's a good way to coordinate and all that. I'm totally willing to make and maintain this list if you guys start throwing dates and seat numbers at me. I'll either edit this post or just do a new one.

[Sheehan Rysa]

I so wanna go
