Broadway Awards Spam

norfolkboy writes "Spamalot the musical that is! The BBC is reporting that Spamalot has topped the nominations for Broadway's main awards, the Tonys. It is nominated for 14 awards. Of course, this has nothing to do with SPAM, but since the Musical was previously announced on Slashdot, I thought readers would be interested in this followup."

First use of the word spam on the internet - 1987

I have the dubious honor of first using the word "spam" on the interent to describe unwanted electronic communication. I certainly didn't intend anything at the time, indeed, my mention went largely unnoticed, the MUDers really deserve the credit, but I was first...

I saw the show opening weekend...

Thanks to an incredible gift. It was hilarious, it blended the old with much new material. I didn't stop laughing the entire time and they also incorporated parts from other Python movies that any Python fan will recognize. While the tickets ARE pricey I recommend anyone to check the show out with the cast as it is now (Azaria, Hyde-Pierce, Curry, etc). Well worth the money, hilarious and I'm glad it got a boat load of nominations. So yeah, Go, NOW, it's worth it and NY is always a decent weekend trip.
