The Daily Something

So this is another sort of different post for me and it's something I'd kind of like to delve into a little more... but I'm going to take one particular pop culture phenomenon- whether it's having it's moment now or if it already had its moment... I feel like a bunch of things become popular at the same time that are kind of connected in some way or another... whether they're loosely related or closely related... I just wanted to kind of mention it... I'll do as much research as I can on the subjects and I'll kind of explain a little more about them. Hamilton (in Production since 2013)  So while the first official performance of the Broadway Musical Hamilton which we all know and love today... but before that there was a workshop and an off broadway run... some of these songs are a little different... there are versions in the Hamilton Mixtape of the original songs... the production you can see today is absolutely perfect the way it is... but I do lo...

I really like Tags now apparently. I saw this tag over  here  and decided to do the tag!  1) How did you find out about Hamilton? I heard about it when it was first out... maybe before it was on broadway? On a radio station they said it was an amazing rap musical about Alexander Hamilton and the owner of Jouer, Christina, mentioned it in one of her snapchats and I took note of that. I'm a fan of musicals, but I had seen In The Heights and sometimes hip hop and rap are a little harder to understand on stage so I was like "Well... I'll just listen to the soundtrack and see if I like it." And I listened to it in like January or February while cleaning my room during a snow storm... and then I listened to it again and again and again... and I've been obsessed ever since then and now I would LOVE to see it live. I don't think I will anytime soon... but I'd LOVE too!  Also I didn't realize Lin Manuel Miranda did both In The Heights and Hamilton... ...

So of all the award shows... the Tony's is my favorite. Usually the hosts are really good, its not boring. And I love all the performances! I especially love Hamilton and James Corden... so I'm really excited for this year! I think this will be my version of "live tweeting" and I'll watch the show live and write about it here... or watch it tivoed and write about it here. Whatever works! The show opened with a message from James Cordon on the recent tragedy... and many winners and presenters respectfully stated their sadness and thoughts on the tragedy. Its a terrible thing that happened and I think everyone took time to reflect the tragedy very nicely. And that's all I'm going to say about that. I didn't end up live tweeting because I was too into the show lol. But here are some thoughts in snippet form. - I love James Corden. I thought he was really funny. Typically, I like the hosts of The Tonys because I like theatrical actors. I thought he w...
