[MewSumomo1]

[Rom3osToxic]

[pearlstex]

[doctorwhofan247]

[godgivendesire]

in 0.40, who were the coaches and CB "racing" with? was that rusty? i cant see it very well

[pearlstex]

yes it is rusty , diner , Buffy ,Ashly and CB

[AngusFreakMonia]

Was it the Uk Tour of the german essemble?

Who's Rusty there at this video... He looks like Jamie Golding, I think...

[DVDeMm]

No its a UK cast. I can't remember who Rusty was here (I saw it twice with 2 different Rusty's) but they were both British. I saw one of them in Rent in Westend in December.

[account4greg]

Rusty is played by Kristofer Harding

[AngusFreakMonia]

Thank you.

[PurpleTshirt]

It's Kristofer Harding. I saw and met this Rusty at Hull. He's an amazing guy!

[mattdandex]

i went to see it in Oxford. t was great!!!!!!!

[cheekyteazer13]

i went to see starlight express 27th

[jkemt5]

i think this was in oxford. was it?

[british1steph]

I went to see it in Oxford on Saturday.

[ads655]

is that at bournemouth

[Beltizia]

I saw the show in Stockholm and it was the best event I've ever been to! I hope I will be able to see the show it's in original form someday in my life :)

[ocean0explorer]

There is a permentally based production based in Germany in Bochum. Starlight unfortunately is showing no sign of revival in the west end.

[babysmudgeiloveu]

i saw it to and it was sooo good

[xbombixtugsyx]

WHAT TIME IS IT? IT'S RACETIME!! BEST SHOW EVEEER!!lovvvee Electra's solo bit! These guys ROOCKK!XX

[NewsiesTimeonMars]

I like "The Rap" from the Starlight Express Megamiz better (Are you ready for the big one starting any minute?) I feel like it fits better with the show, and it depressed me that I can still hear some of those lyrics and music in this mess

[chlodowgfreestyle]

i saw this in belfast FANTASTIC!

[Duomaxwe]

I just got home from seeing it in Belfast too :P

[Maestrojosh87]

You know what? I think David Yazbek wrote the best rap I've ever heard in StEX. The first rap ("Hey, You!") sounded like "Rock Island" from the Music Man, which wasn't so good. And the second ("Ready For The Big One") sounded like what is now PaRappa The Rapper. Now this one sounds a lot more like real rap music. I like this one the best.

[EmilyC93]

i went to se this tour when it was at The Alhambra, it was ace!

[billymcdafthead]

I have seen the original and now seen this in Canterbury...still amazing, not so much as the origninal (of course) but this was still an amazing night!

[superalexo]

I saw it at bradford and bought the original cast double CD, but half the songs on it were different.

[xmadcatcazx]

yeah there's the original and new where all the songs are the same as on the current one

[doggiefan605]

is that at the bristol hippadrome

[MandyFairfield]

I am truly saddened, what have they done? Ugh.

[Mungojerriestar]

I have to say I think I'll wait until I can see it in Bochum.... its just wrong to see Greaseball like a rapstar.

[mufasa2007]

i love the video but who played peal and electro ?

[xXxTaShDeLlxXx]

i worked backstage for this in bristol 4 work experience, so awesome! i love rusty n greaseball bt electra pushed me!!! lol

[xjadex15x]

TASSSSHHHHHHH!!!! sorry just saw u left a comment lol i remeber you saying about him pushing you! OMG i miss it! RUSTY <3 gawwdd! lol

xx

[Muzstriker]

my little sis loves this show she says that tom is the best greaseball.

[andreadoria]

I so badley Miss Kris i wish i could see all his shows

[LiftsUpYourLife]

WOW what a great show!!!!!!

[lydz94]

i went to go see this at bristol Hipp last night

it was amazing :)

[kazzyjbeanz]

Yes I did enjoy it very much , it surpised me a lot , and I want to go and see it again. We had Matthew Krzan playing Electra ,and he was amazing!! What a great show !

[harrizzy2310]

We saw this show in Bristol on tuesday...and we loved it. My 7 year old was completly amazed.

[xjadex15x]

this song is amazing! kazzyjbeanz did you enjoy it???

i was backstage helping! on work experiance there!

kris is the best!

x

[ocean0explorer]

You lucky thinG!

your right Kris is the best! Has such a beautiful voice. Amazing tenor.

Matt Krzan is very good as Electra too.

I would kill to see this show again!

[kazzyjbeanz]

Im going to see this tomorro here in Bristol,u.k.I am still not too sure what to think of it so far,and whether I will actually like it that much ,I hope I do though.

[shadyem]

Bet you loved it. It's a fun night out!

[lovelyharajuku]

wtf lol

[kttheduk]

the tour is still very good though i really enjoyed it, and some songs are even better!

[OofusTwillip]

They just couldn't leave this show alone. In its original version, it was sweet and real, but it got mixed reviews, so they panicked and kept changing it to try to make it more current. And they ripped out its heart and soul and killed it. Now it's just noise and flash.

[shadyem]

They have changed it around too much but I enjoyed myself and it was a good night out. It'll never go back to the West End anyway :(

[Galileo1988]

The first Rap i like much better!!!

In Germany and on the "The New Starlight Express" CD

[Mungojerriestar]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOO that was a buff song!!!!! Ok, any vids of Lotta Locomotion? And please not the weird rap version thats on here?

[sampmiller]

There is the TINIEST bit of 'No Comeback' still in the tour.....it takes place during the song 'Laughing Stock'...Electra sings like one line and then Pearl joins in with her "Clear my track...." part...

[Mungojerriestar]

andandand do you have any more vids from the tour like Rolling Stock, Pumping Iron or No Come Back?

[flyingrainbowpigs]

No Come Back was cut many years ago.

[playgoalie]

why did they put this rap crap in the new one? i don't remember it being in the old one

[ocean0explorer]

Kris must have got sick after you saw it!

Shame you didn't get more but it is hard to hide a camera's display in a pitch black theare. Love this though!

[Mungojerriestar]

Call me traditional, but I prefered "Hey you, Who me? Yes you Race you!" Then again, I'm used to that.

[shadyem]

No, it was Kris playing Rusty in Southampton and Oliver Thornton played him in November (Rusty in the tour programme is still Oliver I believe). I'm sure Caboose was the same both times.

The only other clip was AC/DC. I wanted to take more but my camera gives off a bright display and I eventually got caught and told to put it away!

[ocean0explorer]

Shadyem when you saw it in Southampton it was probably Cameron Nielson who usually plays Caboose playing Rusty and someone else playing Caboose.

Did you get any other clips????

[xTheLastSunrisex]

Having seen Cameron as Rusty a few times now, that's definitely not him as Rusty, so it must be Kris. Obviously, I haven't seen him as Caboose, but that sounds pretty like him to me, so I'd say it's probably Kris as Rusty and Cameron as Caboose.

[nina951]

I love this song.. i just love to dance to it.....now im shakin my bootay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!! oohhwwaa oohhwwaaa

[ocean0explorer]

Mykal Rand is so unique in the way he moves n Kris harding is so fit!!!!!!!!!

[krd]

i saw it at the mayflower opening night and 5th april

i got rusty altogragh he soooooooooooooooo good looking !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[shadyem]

The guy who plays Rusty was different at Southampton and I also noticed The Prince of Wales was different lol.

Great both times though!

I also saw it at the Apollo back in 98-99. Gaw, i love this show!

[discoell]

yer i saw it at da pav 2 was a reli gd show missed it in southampton

[shadyem]

No problem. Really wish I was able to get more songs but it was difficult hiding my camera and eventually I was caught lol.

I can't wait to see it again sometime

[vulpintissentiality]

Thank you sooooo much for uploading this! :D I adore StEx, and seeing this again is amazing! I have to see it again live soon, I miss it so much!

[LadyDragonbane]

Greaseball! Tom did such a great as him.. *le sigh*

[discoell]

[shadyem]

Yep this was in Southampton. I also saw it in Bournmouth in November but didn't have my camera.

[jakilynjalin]
