I went to my sons house today for bbq. He had Hamilton on the tv. I started watching it. Now I’ll have to get Disney + so I can finish it.

I just finished watching it for the first time. Brilliant in every way. I am just stunned at how brilliant, I mean I shouldn't be, because I haven't been living under a rock. But truly blown away. I love reading this. Made me smile.

Ok, starting the second half now. Thomas Jefferson is making me so happy. I have a hard time caring about what's going on with the wife and the sister.

We are not because we are the only family in America without Disney plus. 🤣🤣
Every single person on my FB feed has posted some oct ire related to Hamilton this weekend. My favorite was my friend who had some The Federalist Dueling Pistols wine by Dry Creek Valley. She really kept with the theme! 😄💖👏

I just finished watching it for the first time. Brilliant in every way. I am just stunned at how brilliant, I mean I shouldn't be, because I haven't been living under a rock. But truly blown away. My kids TRIED so hard to get me interested when it first came out. Even though I love musicals and have seen several I just didn’t think I’d like this one and I resisted. Then, over a year later, I heard a song from it (I can’t remember which one) and I thought “that’s really clever and catchy”. So I started listening to a couple more. Then I listened to the whole cast recording and was crying by the end. I remember thinking THIS IS BRILLIANT. I started just looking up everything Hamilton and became somewhat obsessed. So yeah, I also entered my Hamilton phase a bit later than the rest .

Did anyone listen to Terry Gross interview Lin Manuel this past week on "Fresh Air"? He talked about how tired he was when they filmed this and it did seem obvious, poor guy. The interview wasn't entirely about Hamilton, but it's worth a listen if you're a fan.
