This may sound like a stupid question but I don't pay much attention to popular culture (well, almost any culture, for that matter),  is it a biographical musical?  

Yes. It's based on/inspired by a biography of Alexander Hamilton.

That's what they want you to think! It's is really a subliminal advertisement for Hamilton Beach Kitchen appliances.

Ive seen the play a couple of times. My wife works in theatre and worked this show for the rogers theatre last season. Ive hung out with most of the original cast at some point over the last couple of years. All really nice people. Javier Munoz, The new Alexander hamilton is acutally miles better in the role than Lin was, and he even admits as much :-$

The soundtrack is indeed super catchy. The kind of stuff that just gets stuck in your head.

Finally saw it and it was phenomenal.  Paid several pretty pennies for the tickets and it was worth every one of them and more.

Most people go to Broadway shows not knowing any of the music beforehand, at least for the first runs. I'm guessing Hamilton is one of the exceptions. Imho, it's a vastly richer experience when you go in knowing the music, as we all know, we don't "get" a song on first listen many times. There are the obvious crowdpleasers that are catchy immediately, but those songs you get after 3-4 listens, they're the ones that really grab you.

I hope Hamilton helps to change the negative disposition towards Broadway shows. Operas can be too stiff. This is an art form that the US is a master of. It is hard enough to be talented enough to sing, dance or act. To be able to do all three competently is really something. I have a feeling La La Land is going to be really big, at least I hope.

Yes, totally agree.  Part of me worried when I first started listening to this soundtrack many months ago that I would "spoil" the show for myself - in fact, the complete opposite was the case.  It goes by so fast and throws so much at you that I fear anybody going in blind would miss 75% of what is happening.  For anybody on the fence about immersing themselves ahead of time, I'd most definitely say go for it.

When we get a chance, we'll be seeing the la show as well, and bringing the kids. :)

      Day 314 - Putting some things together. Better grip/setup, fuller backswing, better finishing position. Filmed some swings, happy with the progress.

      Day 206 (24 Nov 24)  - An easy session with the 54deg wedge and hard foam balls / one simple goal - distance control thru backswing length while not decelerating.  Had a playing partner comment they noticed me decelerating on a couple short wedge shots in last round.  Hit from distances from close to 40yds down to 20.

      Best Shot of the Week

      Musgrove Mill hole #15 was converted to a par 3 after Hurricane Helene. Today, I had 145 from the tee which is a perfect 9-iron for me. I aimed just right of the hole and pulled it a few feet. Clanked off the stick down into the hole and ricocheted out of the hole 13’ away. Drained the putt for a birdie after repairing the hole which was damaged . Not sure if it would have counted as a HIO, but I was pretty excited!

      Day 55 - 2024-11-24 Did five levels of Operation 36 on GSPro (different courses). 🙂 Was -4 from 200 yards (32) intentionally laying up on each hole (i.e. not hitting a 5I or something). Shot… 22, 24, 26 from 25, 50, and 100 yards. I forget my 150-yard score, but obviously it was < 36. Putting was odd… (and I did it with the wedge or a 7I or whatever was in my hand).
