Alleluia | Darren Lynn Bousman

"Working With Idols."

For as long as I can remember, I have loved music... When I was a child, my parents thought due to my fondness of song they should put me in music classes... Quickly did we all learn that loving music, and being good at music, are two totally different things.
 
When I was in high school, theater saved me.  As a sophomore I was cast in "Jesus Christ Superstar"... I know this will sound lame, especially now, saying it as an adult, but that musical transformed me.  Looking back on it now, I realize it was a lot of factors... the friendships I made, the growing up, the freedom I was finding, etc... but my coming of age was set against that soundtrack... That, and of course "Rocky Horror Picture Show." Those two musicals defined me.  
 
As I grew older, I dropped a lot of the love affairs I had as a teenager, but never my undying love for Rock Operas.
 
When Terrance and I decided to journey back into Hell we knew we had to up the stakes... 
 
Also, there was a lot more riding on this one... We had a fandom now.  
 
Jokingly we made a list of our #1 choices we wanted to get.  #1.  Ted Neeley (Jesus Christ), #2. Barry Bostwick (Brad Majors), #3. Adam Pascal (Roger).  We would have been lucky to get one of them... We ended up with a trifecta...
 
Making ALLELUIA was such a dream come true.  Well, that was until the Road Show began...
 
But that is another story for another time... 
Alleluia!
