After the knicks match I walked down to the legendary Chelsea Hotel.
It's a hotel where all these rockstar/artist lived (and died)

It's now a normal hotel. Where normal people stay (I think)
Night of 7/12/08
Saw the broadway musical, Spring Awakening at Eugene O'neil Theatre. Didn't know what to expect as I've never been to a musical. 't was very impressive.
Didn't know it was possible to sing and dance simultaneosly without sounding off-key (or worse yet, lip-synching) The cast can act too.. they were all great.
The storyline is a bit controversial (to some)
It's set in the late 1800s in Germany with all these ultra horny teenagers discovering everything, and they do pretty much everything onstage.
The music is very rock, featuring a rock band and small string section. Music was composed by Duncan Sheik, lyrics by Steven Sater.
Got to meet the cast outside the venue, the stage door was kinda next to the main entrance. They were what you expect, very friendly people who's having a blast at what they're doing.
Freezing (-3 degrees) with male lead, Hunter Parrish (who's also a tv star, apparently)
Would of loved a photo with the beautiful Alexandra Socha, but didn't get to meet her! :(
