Hey peeps!
Ok thankfully Jarrod has blog posted of late which is dandy because this place would be stinking up and dying otherwise.
So what's new?
Well we're still in the season break of the show- I'm meant to be filming another piece of bonus footage for you all- but well, that hasn't happened yet.
Plans have begun for season 2, which is super duperly excited and that will be arriving soon.
Jarrod, Matt and I are currently revising one of our previous musicals- you can go to it's myspace www.myspace.com/boybannedthemusical - there it has all sorts of fun things like photos and music demos from the original version of the song. Dodgy yes, no versions and songs coming soon.
December is getting closer and we're super pumped. We where's Wally'd ourselves on Heidi's cartoon that she got for opening night- (see http://www.titleofshow.com/ and then go to their blog to find it) we're up in the top right hand corner, and it's so cool! [tos]tralians represent!
Anyway I have a big day of my course about to start, with a vocal class and a movement class this morning (time to get my dance on) and a business class this afternoon.
Have a good one peoples.
More wonderful funny videos coming soon, I promise.
Sean,
The Aussie Fan Of [title of show]
PS: Jarrod we need to get Matt to blog, and Steff onto this blog.

The Ode To Johnny - The E! True Hollywood Story
Hello fellow Johnny fans, fans of the YouTube show, or some random person thats entered the blog and is now dazed and confused.
Last night, my brilliant Ode To Johnny went on the air... On the internet...
And what an ode it was. Sprites references. Avenue Q references. Stalking references! How can you go wrong?
Well, we did go wrong.
See, this Ode was SUPPOSED to be in the episode entitled "Jarrod, The Aussie Fan Of John Tartaglia's Show" or "The Understudy" The scenes were filmed for it, the song was recorded. This wasn't my first time re-doing the Avenue Q song "I Wish I Could Go Back To College" As I mentioned in a previous blog I re-wrote the song, which we called "I Wish I Was Back In Year 7", and Sean and I performed it live at our final year 12 assembly last year. The song (and a film clip that's just as funny) is on the Lazy Creations Group YouTube page.
ANYWAY back to the story.
So as we imported the footage, Sean's computer goes all spaz-like and freezes. We shut down the computer and try again. By this stage, I've gone home. Sean messages me saying "We didn't save the Ode To Johnny and we lost it.
So the episode airs with no ode. Bugger.
I go around to Sean's place a couple of weeks later. We film and blah-blah-blah. I wasn't paying much attention. As long as I don't have to dress like Shakespeare again, I'm happy! Before I go, I decide to re-record the song. We make sure we save it, then listen to it back. I've actually forgotten what was wrong with it, but it wasn't quite right... Oh that's right I punched someone for mocking me halfway through. Good times...
So we record it again. Sound's wonderful! Except for the end. The ending sounds rushed. Ah well, off I go home... To stress out about the rushed ending. I continuously beg Sean not to put it on the internet like that! He didn't.
So fast forward about 3 weeks later. I'm at Sean's. We may have filmed the trailer, I can't remember. Man that was a weird day. So by this stage I've recorded the song three times - or thrice, as the olden day people say. Pretty friggen' pedantic of me, right? Wrong!
So finally the song was recorded and listen to a couple of times. It worked out great. Sean edited the video and we now have "The Ode To Johnny" in all it's glory. Sean's going to pass it on to Jeff Bowen who will hopefully pass it on to mr Johnny Tartaglia himself. Soon we'll know what Johnny thinks of it. But for now, here are the lyrics:
CHEERS!

I wish I could go and meet Johnny
My life would be so complete then
What would I give?
To go out and live
Right near him in Hell’s Kitchen…
I wish I could go and meet Johnny
With Johnny I’d know who I am
Even though I’m not gay
I’d love him anyway
As much as a hetero can!
How do I go and meet Johnny
I don’t know what to do anymore
I wanna go to New York
Find his studios
And tell him it’s he I adore
In a straight way!
I wish I could just meet the sprites
Get to him through them
Though they aren’t real
Am I condemned?
Let me just remind you that I’m straight again
I could be
On the set of his great show
Watching the scenes that he does
Praising the lord for the chance that he gave me
But I’m not, and I’m sad because…
I wish I could go and meet Johnny
How do I go and meet Johnny?
Oh
I wish he were still playing Princeton
But if I were to go and meet Johnny
Think what I loser I’d be
He might see this vid
And think, “Who’s that kid?
He’s virtually on the brink of stalking
Me”CHEERS!
