Show: Rock of Ages
Date: 8/8/09
Type: Audio
Cast: Constantine Maroulis (Drew), Savannah Wise (Sherrie), Adam Dannheisser (Dennis), Mitchell Jarvis (Lonny), Michelle Mais (Justice), Lauren Molina (Regina), Paul Schoeffler (Hertz), James Carpinello (Stacey Jaxx), Wesley Taylor (Franz), Ericka Hunter (Waitress Number One), Katherine Tokarz (Ensemble), Andre Ward (Ensemble), Jeremy Woodard (Ensemble), Angel Reed (Ensemble)

I'm sort of torn on this show. The plot's average and predictable, but the music is worked in really well and it's pretty funny. I like Savannah's voice more than Amy's it sounds a little younger and naive. I really don't like Constantine's acting or singing, ick. Mitch Jarvis is so funny..."stars are undeniable, like herpes"
I don't know if I can make words for how great Lauren and Wesley are. Lauren sounds awesome and is totally fierce. and Wesley is just great, so cute and his voice is awesome. Even when I don't understand what he's saying his voice is so cute!
I had seen a video, but I stopped in the middle of Hit Me With Your Best Shot. Everything after that point was new to me, and some of it I didn't quite get. I thought the "I'm not gay, I'm german" or whatever was pretty funny, especially seeing as I had just seen Legally Blonde with "is he gay or European?" but a lot of the show after Every Rose Has Its Thorn sort of had me confused. And there was screaming during Wesley's part of Don't Stop Believin. Major bummer.

See you tomorrow with Addams Family or American Idiot!

Interesting. I totes agree with your opinion on Constantine. Well, I think everyone does. Whatever. Mitch, Lauren, and Wesley are obviously the the greatest part of ROA. Mostly Wesley. Too bad that's not how Franz is "supposed to be played" lol

Wesley rocks. Nobody cares about TL obviously because no one has even made a recording of him.
