Looking for TLKoB midis

Hakuna Mafarta? :lol: Was it Gary that you said signed the thing lots of himself? :lol:

Yeah, poor thing hahaha! Loved hakuna mafarta, that guy was sooo soo funny, but didn't get the chance to meet him properly cause he was off much at that time and I never seemed to be on the show when he was there...:(

I'll delete the lot now ;)

I think I might have to say that more often. :lol: I'm adding so many new phrases to my vocabulary these days. :lol:

Ooooo! I love that Hamburg lionesses one :D

Great pictures Zaya!!! :cheese:

And now I found something that you will enjoy seeing - this is probably my most prized TLKOB possession that I have in my collection - It's a custom framed poster signed by the Los Angeles Cast, from the 2000-2001 season at Pantages Theatre.

It's so pretty and being the Ebay bargain hunter that I am I got an UN-believable deal on this - I'm pretty sure it was originally sold at an auction for hundreds of dollars, I don't even want to say how much I paid for it but I got very lucky!

Oh, but that's not all!

Zaya, when I was admiring all the signatures on the poster I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw this:

OMG that is B! I seriously started freaking out when I saw this it is so cool. I had no idea he was even performing this far back, at this time he was probably just in the Ensemble or an understudy.

Can you ask him if he remembers signing the poster and maybe what it was for, like charity auction or something, and maybe what role he played at this time?

So that's my latest major addition to my TLKOB collection. Something that is extremely hard to find that I don't have is the TLKOB Tour truck, and also the TLKOB tote bag that was just released recently looks pretty cool, those are next on my list.

Wasn't Brian back then, in the ensamble?

*remembers something from Jay Leno where he was supposed to be on aswell*
+ that visuel recording from that 2000 show
I thought Zaya said he was on that too.

I think those posters were more than likely for an AIDS foundation. The Broadway and LA companies of a lot of shows usually give them as like incentives for donating so much to the foundation. They don't do it every performance though, it's on certain nights. I know that BC-EFA is one of the foundations.

I found some new pictures! :D

These two are from a site about the tickets for the South African production being available through December.

In the Diddl magazine of this month, and previous month, there are articles about the young German Simba and Nala, hehe.

Has anyone heard anything about plans for a French cast recording?

No, not yet :(

I have heard about the Korean show though, there still isn't a cast CD and there most likely won't be one :(

Figures. Silly Disney Theatricals.

Found another newish picture. :D

This is Carolina and the Hamburg Scar whose name escapes me at the moment.
