My feet are wet

come with me and bless the night, let the darkness be your salvation :eyebrows:

...you're not using that line on girls are you hon?!

What a line though, eh?

Can't disagree there...Seize The Night...

Much prefer the shorter snappier verison, think it would have more success ...

that line would explain what happened to nora though

who´s nora?

.net is awful sore on the eyes

Never mind the brain...

*innocent face*

Manchester won't klnow what has hit it!!

thats not an innocent face kid lol

:cheer:
nice evening

:twisted: How the hell do you get an Italian vampire with a name like VON Krolock?????? :evil:


Crawford is a complete git for pulling that one :angry:


Although he sounds much better than Crawf*ckup, not even Steve Barton is pleasant to listen to faking in an Italian accent when he talks.

Thankfully the daft voice is completly absent when he sings.

crawford faked an italian accent?:nuts:

Crawford played it as Frank Spencer ... enough to make anyone cringe.

:twisted: Michael Crawf*ck insisted that the character of Graf Von Krolock was made into an Italian character :wtf:

Apparently it allowed to use a "funnier accent" :roll:


When someone playing the lead in a gothic horror starts telling you that he wants to use a "funnier accent" then it is time to show that actor the door and to tell him not to let the door hit him on the ass on the way out.


The demo i'm listening to was recorded by Steve after Crawf*ck had been cast in the roll and had started to make the changes that killed that musical deader than Der Graf.
That being the case, he is obliged to play the character as dictated.Bad accent and all.
But at least he doesn't use it when he sings.

He also changed half the script, and the story, the characters, are mere shadows of the original.



I sincerely beg to differ.






It was more like the bloke using the artistic licence (which BTW folks, was 100% on this deal :doh: ) and is making all the changes is Frank Spencer.


I don't know WTF he's playing the character as :wtf: :nuts:

u watching the whole show??? with mr crawfords adaptions???

:twisted: I don't think I could bare too :shock:

I'm just listening to a demo of Steve I downloaded before.

ahhh the steve demos.... amazing, brilliant stunning and fantastic

:twisted: And a tantalising teasing look into a future that could have been :sad:

don't get me started... or points will be heading my way lol

:twisted: Well, Von Krolock (the Italian one :wtf: ) loses his temper while he'strying to seduce the woman he loves and shouts............

"YOU PATHETIC LITTLE PEASANT, DO YOU THINK I HAVE TIME FOR A MISSERABLE NOTHING LIKE YOU?"


FFS :nuts:


Tanz is a very romantic play, especially the character of Von Krolock.

This is not the kind of thing he would come out with.

Trust me .. on stage it WAS Frank!

yeah, but i enjoyed frank spencer

some mothers do ave em was funny, but i dont want to see frank on stage doing a masterpiece like dotv

did u see the vienna shows with steve mr king?

Sadly no.

which show did u get to see?

One of the final previews in NYC of DOTV. Not seen the real show live yet.

:twisted: God, I would have loved to seen the original production live in Vienna.

previews??? nice one... whats was your opinion of what you saw??

Unrepeatable on a public forum :twisted:

Will try and dig out what I wrote at the time, although it was some 4 &1/2 yrs ago so it might take me a while. Did get to meet Steven Rinkoff and Barry Keating that night though which made up for the show :lmao:

you meet all the greats (apart from me)
where do i know barry keating from, was it batman?

:twisted: Funny how i've never heard anything bad said about Tanz, and nothing good said about Dance :roll:

No, that's Michael Keaton. Barry Keating was in the workshops production of Neverland, right? And Das Rheingold?

excuse my ignorance from the above

Yep spot on that's Barry! Great guy, made up for the fact that Jim didn't show up at that nights preview ... then again with 40+ Steinman fans there I'd have hidden if I were him to!

end of another birthday

:twisted: Steve Barton once recorded a song with Mother Theresa? :shock:

yes she read a prayer while he sang or something.. he considered it his best achievment or something. i think i read he wrote part of it aswell, but i could be completely wrong

must learn a new magic trick

Why the chuff have I done that?

:shock: Done what?

From the youtube clips, I think that reviews of so-called Dance are quite obvious...argh...

From Tanz to Dance...truly memorable...go straight from heaven to hell...do not pass go...do not go to jail, etc...

Signed up for an induction session at the local gym and agreed to join the village beginners running/jogging club in April.

And to make it even worse, said i will consider agreeing to the local paper doing a 12 month feature following me on a get fit campaign. With weekly updates column and everthing!!!

My sincere condolences...:(

:shock: OMG!! and you agreed to it... well you'll have to keep us upto date too then;)

didnt know that there were youtube clips of the broadway production...

There were...maybe those are still there...

soooo happy!!!
even though it´s raining like hell here!!!! lol

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Didnt find any :(

:twisted: DUMB, Chris.

Very very dumb :nope:

A gym? I've barely moved for years,and if spending 3 years with a rugby playing, body building personal trainer can't motivate me then nothing will!

The difference is you are the size of a well fed hairpin whereas i resemble the Michilin Man before he joined Slimfast!!!

What are you talking about??? You're gorgeous!

My thoughts...

EVERYBODY...please stick your fingers in your eyes...

YIIIIIIIIIIIPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok...done for now...

She didn't pass :(

Still, the roads are safe for a while longer.... :lmao:

I can't shift this bloody cold!

Oh lord I´m so tired, but still happy :D

Bike needs a clean, wish the weather would let me

Well that was fun ... NOT! :evil:

boredom is a terrible thing

:( Feeling blue over the passing of Australia's rock legend, Billy Thorpe. He was our "Meat Loaf" in that he never let tradition get in the way of a good idea, a true pioneer in the industry, and he was LOUD. 60 is way too young to die. Vale Billy Thorpe. :roll:
