The End(?)

It hit me today. The tour is really over. I mean, I realized it last night. I knew that there were no more shows after last night's show. I even had flashbacks during Turn Back to when we first started practicing (it being the first song we learned choreography to and all), but today when I was home eating lunch with my family, I felt a little odd. Of all the people I had gotten used to seeing day in and day out during the tour, not one of them was there. It was just weird. I'll see most of them in a couple of weeks or less, but it won't be in the same setting. I'll be in the radio studio doing what I do, watching them through the window there doing what they do (which is running up and down that hallway like mad people all hours of the day and night). The only people I won't really see anymore are Kristen and Josh, who I wish the best of luck to in everything. I'll miss you guys.

The tour had its ups and downs, but it was amazing. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad it is over. Theatre is a hobby for me, not a passion. I'm glad to get back to what I am passionate about, but I'll miss everyone I spent the summer with. It was a second family to me.

So Godspell ends for the third (and final?) time. I am glad I was able to take part in it.

Thanks to everyone who let me stay in there homes, to everyone who prepared meals for all of us, and to (In no special order) Matthias (I'm glad I made a Joss fan of you), Phil(even though you always tried to take inches from me in our seat :-)), Alicia (Good seed... GOOD SEED!!!), Nate (You are never going to watch that last episode are you? Your still a good guy.), Bethany (Remember when you were basically one of the guys? Good times), Andrew (I'm glad I got to serenade you before every show), Patrick H. (We both love EWJ. Nuff said), Lindsay (sooooo weird:-)), Pat I. (Might as... well ;-)), Kristen (Thank you so much for introducing me to the no voice), Peter (Your face when playing Betrayal at House on the Hill was priceless... EVERY TIME), Rebekah (Is it even possible for you to be negative? I doubt it), Reuter (Watch out for veloci-reuter), Ted (next time you climb to the summit of knowledge or drink from the well of the moon, take me along), and Josh (Someday you might be as good as me in Mario Kart. Maybe).

Thanks for the great summer everyone.
God Bless,
Eric
