Today's NY Countdown photo is of the legend called Trent Kowalik. I was fortunate to be at Trent's last show in London. When he walked down the aisle at the end Shaun Malone (Michael) came out on his bike and shouted "Oi, Broadway boy". They then closed with "See ya Shaun" "Yeh, see ya Trento". The place erupted and I don't think there was a dry eye in the house.

If I'd heard that story, I've forgotten it. LOVE!!! =) Trent was an amazing Billy and I'm so happy he's got a photo with my favorite number (37). =)

Thats cute.
At the final Toronto show, they ended it similarily. Michael came out and said "See ya, Marcus"
and then Billy said "yea, see ya Dillon"
and everyone kindof errupted. And Marcus's family was right behind us, and they were pretty touched at the response.

I was sitting next to Billy Whiz that night. When Shaun said "Oi, Broadway Boy" we turned and looked at each other with expressions of surprise and delight. :D

If you go to Tessa's Tumblr page, she had a mini-reunion with the OBC. Lots of pictures with her fellow ballet girls, Mitchell, and Trevor!

Anyway, great great countdown! I only started following Billy in April this year so seeing all these from when it first started is great. :)

I'm guessing OBC means the Original Broadway Cast . . . or maybe Our Billy Comrades ? ;)

Just a note here: Everyone, please try to avoid using textspeak when possible. As the last post shows, although you may know what you are talking about, textspeak is often confusing to others, so please spell out your words.

Thanks. :D
