I've seen clips and heard the official soundtrack album from the original (1968) Broadway production with James Rado, Diane Keaton, Melba Moore, etc...and, of course they are the original, so they OWNED it. But, after seeing the '09 revival with Gavin Creel & Will Swenson and the rest of that amazing cast - I can't imagine anyone - even the OBC - doing this show better. I think they were better. If there was just one Broadway musical to see in your life. "Hair" would be the one.
A friend of mine sent me this video via facebook, and all I can say is wow. Whoever the guy soloist was is amazing. And the blonde girl was simply fantastic. Definitly going to find more HAIR videos!
WOW ! So great ! The more you watch it, the more you realize how they build their passion for Hair from one anougher, and BELIEVE ME it's a win -- win situation ! I love it.
Hey is that the real "Will Milano" in the grey vest and jeans? Looks identical to him check out myspace. com/ thesinpage ! If that's him it's a big jump in music styles! Bravo

I saw this show in london not long ago with the broadway cast- I totally fell in love with it and was lucky enough to meet most of the cast after the show. I don't think the english cast will ever beat the broadway cast.
I am so grateful they are over here in London and feel like the most luckiest person in the world to have danced with and met them. They are all amazing, beautiful people.

A very evil play and Movie it was. No respect for God or Country. Foolish to not remember the USA had many enemies before, during and after vietnam. Johnson took a hard stand on communism and its spread. We as a nation may not be here if he had been like those in the movie or jane fonda... Letting our Military dwindle down to a few, no preparedness, no research into better weapons for defense. Dont think we cant be conquered as a people.

@somethingswicked This play and JC Superstar were evil, they do not Honor God nor care about their own fallen sin nature. They do care to destroy whats good in the eyes of God for there version of righteousness.
In essence throwing out all that is good to put in place that which satan has put in their hearts as "good."
Calling evil good and good evil. When they get in place what they want then Servants of Christ will be persecuted even to death. It has always been this way.
@BlueJeanBaby012 This world isnt about equality. Its about God reconciling a fallen world unto himself by his Blessed and only Begotten Son Jesus. Thats it. His Mercy and Love is Greater than the payment God demands for sin. Its really like that.
e-sword . com has a Free Bible download. Free e-books too. Check it out.
oye vey... people like you ruin the magic and beauty of shows like this... I bet you hate Spring Awakening.
and yes. the world IS about equality and love. not just love from God, but love for people as they are. learn to be more accepting of others and stop trying to preach your religion onto others. thanks!
there is a girl on here who actually puts down gavin as claude and says he is the worst one. sheeeeeeesh. some people. anyway, i am going end of Jan and front row...i am so excitedd
Oh and on the Kacie/Caissie duet... I believe Caissie is taking the higher part that SHasha usually sings while Kacie is taking the part Caissie usually sings as Sheila. Sheila's verse is lower than Dionne's.
@eponinesyndrome-- oh, I knew that :) it's just that in this performance, it's only kacie and caissie with microphones, so it's kind of obvious that caissie take her lower part while kacie sings the higher harmony, which I know she doesn't usually do. hence my comment.
nah, you can clearly hear kacie doing the lower part and caissie for once actually sings the high part. they've changed around who sings it since they were doing it in the park.
18 is older than some and you can tell and 11 year old how wise you are and what you've experienced but don't claim to be too wise beyond your years with not many years to back you up. You have the right to your opinion, but I must say in my opinion its the wrong one Silvergirl
silver. i saw the show about 3 days ago and this show rocks. this version is not the best but i want you to go see the show. if you cant afford to go see it on broadway wait untill it tours. this show rocks. gavin creel is an amazing singer. you listen to any recording from hair he sings its not even close to how he sounds live.
Jarm- in my last comment to Silvergirl i didn't mean your recording was horrible...just doesn't capture how amazing it really is live. that's all. thanks so much for posting! :)
Oh I understand. I've seen it live at the Hirschfeld and it's AMAZING. This performance was also the first time they performed in public (i think) so it was exciting to tape it and i was so close and excited! lol.
and to top it off i shortened your name to Jarm and not Jam...lol!!!
I can imagine how you would have felt (well, i can't because i wasn't there) but what an experience!!! i have even watched the movie again just to see the differences and watched as many clips of this cast as well as i can. i hope it runs a long time. how long to revivals stay around? i am really wanting to come to this one. <3
I just wanna how old you are... and when I can expect to see on Broadway.... and I guess I'd like to know how long you've been studying voice... because i get the feeling that you lack actual knowledge in the subject area. This isn't a soapbox for people who wish they could be great.... so sit it on down, and hush.
Dearie i'm only 18 years old-younger than y!I haven't studied voice but i have studied Rock and this perfomance doesn't rock no matter what-may be a great dramatic play, or a good vocal performance but is Politically Correect and doesn't rock no way!!!!!!!and since i'm a dancer too, don't tell me that this is a lively choreography...(i don't how it is in the original show) because it is suposed to be a musical-meaning not only singing required but dancing & moving as well. Yours sincerely...
My Dear...if you knew the premise of this musical at all, and if knew ANYTHING about the '60s and the "drug culture," you'd know that this is a very distinct genre of musical. It's not about "choreography"...no jazz hands, no Michael Bennett, Bob Fosse or "so you think you can dance" routines. But, as you said, you're only 18. Everything you know about "rock" today began with musicals such as this one. 18-year-olds should be seen and not heard.
FUCK YOU!!!y ain't got no idea about what i know about rock. in fact my kind of rock is the 60's rock and the fact that i'm only 18 and also greek should only be a factor of amazement considering that i knowof 60's culture and hair so well.just because i wasn't there at the time doesn't meanthat i'm not aware.i bet you're someone about to push up daises, who looks down on anyone who has different ideas. and my onl objection about the current hair is that it has differences from the original
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
what are YOU listening to???have you heard james rado or mark seibert in this part...and in fact i bet anyone who thinks this performance is good doesn't know history at all...it's about people dying in war but this cast is already dead to protest...
i encourage you to watch seth rudetsky's deconstruction on going down.. just look up gavin creel going down on youtube and then come back and talk about Gavin.
before you pass those judgments you really need to see them in the show...and not (sorry) a bad youtube recording) seriously....
yeah ok i heard it.i think what i don't like about him is that he's more like a pop artist in a rock part and what i don't like about the revival is that is turned most songs to pop intead of the folk rock whick was initially the genre of the musical.also i think that (at least some) and members of the tribe are a little too old to play the young rebels(in the particular performance noone seems much of a rebel-let's accept that hippies were rebels!)
yes, i understand and i was a little rude in another thread when i preach about people having a right to their own opinion. naughty me!!! sorry.
just have a peak at Hair the tony's,,(search) maybe you have seen it. i thought that performance was phenominal . Allison Case is age appropriate and others. they are in their 20s and look very young. i am a dancer and the HAIR number at the Tony's showed the coreography to be excellent for me. can't compare a concert to the actual show for rocking.
it's ok, i'm rude most of the times (...).i love all the performances of "hair"song i've seen (in youtube), its exactly what i expected; choreography and performance.but the flesh failures still disapoint me.probably because i love the song too much or because i'm a little jealous of sheila(.......!), but i certainly prefer the german independent production with seibert-he's just got it in the eyes & i do prefer him a thousant times over creer, even though the latter is not that bad after all...
shut the hell up! this cast rocks... you are just a total wanna be drama club graduate who aint gonna smell the stage dream on. your name say's it all you will never be a gold performer!!!
oh yeah?& what does your name mean??if you're a psychologist hear that Yeah i'm total wanna be drama club graduate,but aint gonna smell the stage only because i'm greek & not that rich to pay for vocal classes or for tickets to america.but you know what?i'm glad i can't because i at least have the moral value of not judjing peole i know nothing about just because i disagree with them& if you knew rock so well you'd know what my name is really about.careful cause what shines isn' always gold
This performance of this particular song is not about choreo. at all. They are simply performing the song for equality at a benefit...out of context!!!!! Watch the performance on youtube of the actual show if you care to know what the show is about and the incredible message it has. Don't be ignorant and know that you always have something to learn no matter how old you get.
If you see the actual show on stage they do have a lot more depth to their performance. This performance was for the Marriage=Equality Rally and they did it for free.
wow. I was in my school's performance of HAIR this year as Sheila and I had thought we did a pretty good job of entering the character but wow...this is just fantastic. Makes me wanna step up my game a little haha :)
the guy that played as burger (long brown hair on left) kept showing his ass and ding dong to the crowd in the first 5 mins 2weeks ago when i went...same actor..yes thats cassie levy....
What an amazing job these guys have !!! I mean you can tell by their expressions how much fun they're having when they're performing, I guess that's what makes it so incredible and gives everybody in the audience goosebumps !!!
Yeah i agree. There facial expressions are amazing but you have to remember that you really should get into the lyrics to this song and meanings behind it. You will be amazed
the only thing is, each time it's done now , be it Broadway or civic theatre, it has a distinctly different feel and look than when it 1st opened. mostly because it was about and of a time And that only happens once. this concert or the show though are a good representation or interpretation.
I've seen the show twice (2009 and about three weeks ago) and it is fabulous. I dare you not to get choked up at the end.

FUCK YOU!!!y ain't got no idea about what i know about rock. in fact my kind of rock is the 60's rock and the fact that i'm only 18 and also greek should only be a factor of amazement considering that i knowof 60's culture and hair so well.just because i wasn't there at the time doesn't meanthat i'm not aware.i bet you're someone about to push up daises, who looks down on anyone who has different ideas. and my onl objection about the current hair is that it has differences from the original

@mmutzu well i don't think necessarily being 18 has anything to do with it, maturity and wisdom arrive at many ages, and for some...never...

what are you listening too? this cast is great. Gavin Creel has anything but a weak voice.

This comment has received too many negative votes show
what are YOU listening to???have you heard james rado or mark seibert in this part...and in fact i bet anyone who thinks this performance is good doesn't know history at all...it's about people dying in war but this cast is already dead to protest...
Silvergirl678 2 years ago
i encourage you to watch seth rudetsky's deconstruction on going down.. just look up gavin creel going down on youtube and then come back and talk about Gavin.
before you pass those judgments you really need to see them in the show...and not (sorry) a bad youtube recording) seriously....

yeah ok i heard it.i think what i don't like about him is that he's more like a pop artist in a rock part and what i don't like about the revival is that is turned most songs to pop intead of the folk rock whick was initially the genre of the musical.also i think that (at least some) and members of the tribe are a little too old to play the young rebels(in the particular performance noone seems much of a rebel-let's accept that hippies were rebels!)
Silvergirl678 2 years ago
yes, i understand and i was a little rude in another thread when i preach about people having a right to their own opinion. naughty me!!! sorry.
just have a peak at Hair the tony's,,(search) maybe you have seen it. i thought that performance was phenominal . Allison Case is age appropriate and others. they are in their 20s and look very young. i am a dancer and the HAIR number at the Tony's showed the coreography to be excellent for me. can't compare a concert to the actual show for rocking.
bcrocker33 2 years ago
it's ok, i'm rude most of the times (...).i love all the performances of "hair"song i've seen (in youtube), its exactly what i expected; choreography and performance.but the flesh failures still disapoint me.probably because i love the song too much or because i'm a little jealous of sheila(.......!), but i certainly prefer the german independent production with seibert-he's just got it in the eyes & i do prefer him a thousant times over creer, even though the latter is not that bad after all...

shut the hell up! this cast rocks... you are just a total wanna be drama club graduate who aint gonna smell the stage dream on. your name say's it all you will never be a gold performer!!!

oh yeah?& what does your name mean??if you're a psychologist hear that Yeah i'm total wanna be drama club graduate,but aint gonna smell the stage only because i'm greek & not that rich to pay for vocal classes or for tickets to america.but you know what?i'm glad i can't because i at least have the moral value of not judjing peole i know nothing about just because i disagree with them& if you knew rock so well you'd know what my name is really about.careful cause what shines isn' always gold

This performance of this particular song is not about choreo. at all. They are simply performing the song for equality at a benefit...out of context!!!!! Watch the performance on youtube of the actual show if you care to know what the show is about and the incredible message it has. Don't be ignorant and know that you always have something to learn no matter how old you get.

If you see the actual show on stage they do have a lot more depth to their performance. This performance was for the Marriage=Equality Rally and they did it for free.

the only thing is, each time it's done now , be it Broadway or civic theatre, it has a distinctly different feel and look than when it 1st opened. mostly because it was about and of a time And that only happens once. this concert or the show though are a good representation or interpretation.
it meant something different then than now.
