Who is Going to be in The Room Where it Happens??

Patti Hommes · May 21

I was soooo excited to read that Lesie Odom, Jr. was going to be the keynote speaker at bbcon this year. Who else out there is a Hamilton fan?? Who has never seen Hamilton and been in "The Room Where it Happened" with Aaron Burr, Sir??
My grandson was born in May 2016, less than a year after Hamilton opened on Broadway and the soundtrack was constantly streaming at their house (Broadway lovers, of course). When Nathan got fussy, we would start the soundtrack and on the first seven beats before the opening song started he would instantly stop fussing and listen, and ultimately fall asleep. This worked for months! And now, at 10, he is also a Broadway lover!

Hi @Patti Hommes I love everything about this! I'm going to move this over the bbcon community for some fun discussion about our Key Note!

I'm not sure that my org will pay for bbcon this year, but I think that I'm going to pay for it myself. I've seen Leslie Odom, Jr. in concert and he is fantastic. I've seen Hamilton on Boradway twice, but he was unfortunately not performing those days. I have listened to the soundtrack numerous time and have watched the taped performance of Hamilton that he's in. I'll be honest - this might be what motivates me to go to bbcon this year.
