But wouldn't a Greatest Hits CD expose the show more or would the show expose the Greatest Hits CD? If people can see that Jim is more than just Meat Loaf by a Greatest Hits CD, then perhaps they'll give the show a chance.

They should (in my opinion) get the Trans-Siberian Orchestra people to sort out TDE gigs. But I heard Rinkoff doesn't like them much.

When they have a specific songwriter week, no song is repeated.

Wasn't Kenwright thinking of taking the show to Broadway? If that happens then there'll be a US cast album.
