I know of Phantom of the Opera, it’s not one of my favorites, but I got the joke right away! Also Viv and Richard are musical theater fanatics so I think that joke was for both of them.

I was a 1st year teacher when this song came out.
I remember my 2nd grade boys doing the basketball choreo in gym class.
The girls who were Vanessa Hudgens fanatics.
Still didn't have the sense to put the DVD in and see what it was all about. 😅

And I am surprised at the series& musical

I caught promoter & filmmaker Stuart Swezey's Desolation Center (2019) on Amazon Prime today, and it's an excellent look back at a special time in the early-to-mid '80s when promoters (and now filmmakers) like Swezey had really interesting ideas about putting on concerts like these. (more: alt text)
Redd Kross, the Minutemen, Meat Puppets, Sonic Youth and Savage Republic, plus some of their fans, are seen enjoying the night air out in the Mojave Desert ("Mojave Exodus"), or playing on on a boat in the harbor off San Pedro, or in downtown L.A. locales (I went to one of those where Mark Pauline of SRL had robots fighting each other). Here's some stuff written about the doc and the director by Richie Unterberger ("THE JOY OF DESOLATION: TAKING PUNK ROCK TO THE DESERT" - Please Kill Me blog, October 16, 2019): Putting on punk shows in Los Angeles in the early 1980s became near to impossible with the lack of venues and police harassment of those events that did manage to find one. So a young promoter, Stuart Swezey, took bands like Redd Kross, the Minutemen, Meat Puppets, Sonic Youth and their fans out to the Mojave Desert, where he created his own under-the-radar scene. Now, 35 years later, Swezey’s documentary film Desolation Center proves this magical musical interlude actually took place. Swezey talks to Richie Unterberger about the film, the time it documents and the future possibilities. In Werner Herzog’s film Fitzcarraldo, an early-twentieth century Irishman valiantly struggles to stage an opera in the Amazon with Enrico Caruso. In the early 1980s, a young Los Angeles promoter embarked on a quest almost as fanciful: to hold punk, post-punk, and industrial music shows in the Mojave Desert. And not in an officially sanctioned, gaudily marked site, but in remote outposts beyond the points where paved roads ended. (more) Especially great to see so many friendly faces and a few more acquaintances in the film, including Chris Morris, Janet Housden, ML Compton & Skip, Adam Wolf, Don Bolles and others being interviewed. I never went to the screenings for this doc in 2019 so this was a special treat for me to see this film in my living room today. More from Richie Unterberger: Even after getting picked up at Los Angeles airport with a driver specifically missioned to deliver the band, Redd Kross got lost on the way to their desert gig, barely making it to their spot on time. And unlike the fictional opera production that brings Fitzcarraldo to its finish, these ’80s avant-rock events actually happened. The setting was as unlike the dank downtown clubs in which these shows usually took place that you’d wonder if they really did happen, if not for the surviving evidence in photos and shaky video footage. The big inspirations were LA avant-rockers Savage Republic—not as big a name as the most celebrated acts who’d play the desert shows, perhaps, but a very respected and influential band on the local underground scene. About 35 years later, the desert shows—as well as an equally unlikely “Joy at Sea” aboard a boat in the San Pedro harbor, featuring the Meat Puppets and the Minutemen–are documented with more detail than anyone thought possible in the new film Desolation Center. Directed by the events’ original promoter, Stuart Swezey, it’s built around an abundance of vintage lo-fi film clips and audio, as well as recent interviews with many of the musicians and participants. Indeed, almost all of the surviving notable performers contribute recollections, including not only some Minutemen and Meat Puppets, but also key members of Sonic Youth (though not Kim Gordon), Einsturzende Neubauten, Savage Republic, Redd Kross, Perry Farrell (then part of his pre-Jane’s Addiction group Psi-Com), and industrial/performance art group Survival Research Laboratories. More from Richie Unterberger: Now well into middle age and veterans of hundreds if not thousands of shows, the musicians (and indeed the numerous audience members and organizers who also have screen time) often still speak of these happenings with a sense of awe. How were these sort of anti-Magical Mystery Tours pulled off, with loads of punks and edgy rock fanatics literally bused into the desert? With only the most basic of equipment and staging and without official permits, though it didn’t stop some of the acts from bringing explosive pyrotechnics? “There wouldn’t have been a discussion about getting permits and all that stuff,” admits Swezey today. The authorities “would have just said no. It was easier just to do it, and not ask permission. Because the other choice was not doing it.” (more) More from Richie Unterberger: Yet in some ways, they had no choice but to do it, considering the difficulty in putting on punk shows in L.A. in the early ‘80s, especially those that involved some combination of music, confrontational performance art, fire, and hazardous special effects. As the first part of Desolation Center makes clear, L.A.-area police were often eager to shut down punk shows and harass both the performers and the audience. Just finding a place to play and assemble could be hard, even if the relatively small crowds and way-underground acts posed no substantial public health threats. That’s part of what drove Swezey into putting on shows in his early twenties. “I think all of us have horror stories worse than anything that actually is in the film,” he observes. “Like some event where the police really cracked 14-year-olds’ heads with batons. If you’ve read the book City of Quartz by Mike Davis, there’s a whole chapter about how the LAPD was basically guys who learned counterinsurgency training in Vietnam. Even in the early ‘80s, I think they were applying a lot of that mentality, sort of a zero tolerance point of view, to punk rock. “I think people from other cities, it’s hard for them to wrap their head around. ‘Cause some of the bigger punk scenes like San Francisco, New York, it wasn’t something that people worried about as much. LA is a different place than it was then. It was pretty redneck. A lot of the kids growing up in places like the Inland Empire and Orange County, even in North Valley, attitudes were pretty intolerant of anything that was a little bit different, radical, or bohemian.” go here: https://pleasekillme.com/desolation-center/

Sarcasm and wit. He was one to expose the underbelly and ugly side of this nation. He loved poking at the hippie movement, hollywood, conservatives, religious fanatics, and anything that was shiny on the outside, but ugly on the inside. His was a profound musical and lyrical genius. Influenced me...

‘Back to the Future: The Musical,’ playing in San Francisco through March 9, knows its audience — unfortunately, it lets down both the Gen X nerds and the musical theater fanatics, though it slightly redeems itself in the second half. Our review:

At the Orpheum, this show knows its audience — and gives them exactly what they don’t want.

Condoms, "musicals" because they think ALL non-WASPs are Judy Garland Musical fanatics, and comic books, the last thing they read, aged 7

Wicked fans are furious after cinemas issued a ban on singing during film screenings of the musical.

Horror film fanatics are also calling for people to be allowed to kill teenagers while watching ‘slasher’ movies like ‘Friday 13th’.
