Fuck yeah, bitches! So, I was planning on going to Taiwan to see Rent in February (the stage version….but the movie, too), but the plane tickets were expensive, and the tickets to the show were literally like $200. Um, hello, Jeff doesn’t pay more than $20 usually. Anyway, so I decided to scrap that…and today I woke up to the announcement that it’s coming to Tokyo! Fuck yeah! I am not sure when, but I am guessing somewhere between February and April. Anyone in Gunma, you should be aware that I will be dragging you there. If you are currently asking yourself what Rent is, then you have no business reading this blog.
By the way, the show will be in English with an “all-star cast.” Some of that is debatable (the Mark sucks!) but many of them are kick-ass! Plus my cute Angel is in it, aww! I am not so sure how I feel about Karen Mok (Asian celebrity) being Mimi (and also singing the Seasons of Love solo?), but oh well. I could go on about the cast for like 10 more paragraphs, but I will refrain.
Anyway, theatre tix are expensive in Tokyo, too, but at least this way I don’t have to pay for airfare, as well. Plus they will have semi-cheap rush, so YAY. PLUS that means that they are going to be releasing the movie here, despite them not having a release date yet. RENT!
Also, I know I have good friends when I E-Mailed them the following message this morning:
Subject: Oh my god oh my god oh my god oh my god
RENT IS COMING TO TOKYO BITCHES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And received the following replies (and more) within no time:
“yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When are the dates? And how much are the tix?”
“Awesome! SO interested in going….”
“HOLLER, when and when do we buy our tickets?”
“Oh my god!!! When??? When??? That's awesome!!!! Screw Taiwan....Tokyo, here we come!!!!! Woohoo!!!!“
Awww, I love me some new and old Rentheads!
Yes, this is the dorkiest post ever, but fuck you, it’s my blog, bitches! Hmm, I am a hostile man.

Ooh sorry, should have replied to that... the only things I know about Rent are things you've told me, but that's enough to make me want to see it. I'm definitely up for it. Erm... holla!
Indeed.
YAY! However, I must warn you that for mysterious, unknown reasons, Adam Rickitt didn't make it into the all-star cast. I hope this doesn't affect your decision....
Just to make sure you don't get too excited, I will contribute the obligatory "meh."
