Hello ALL!! I've been on travel, mostly for business. Just got back and will try to catch up with everything here. The guest book is quiet ... not so much with email. Don't worry. I'll get to it all in time. Stay in the AC! It's deadly out there!

Be well my friends, Morgan

I have looked at Ranger Texas on Google earth, and I must say, what a quaint old western American town! It is interesting to imagine young Ted screaming rock and roll and dreaming of having his own band in that sleepy town. I would think it is an excellent place to grow dreams and be inspired by the isolation of the area. I would love to visit Ranger.

Aloha Y'all: Just back from a week in Hawaii - hubbie is parked in front of the TV because THE OPEN (say that with as much reverence as you would Ted's name ), so I have a few moments to catch up on e-mail and get my NOTR fix.

Ran into a bit of excitement while I was there. They were filming the new Hawaii Five-O - had a blessing ceremony and everything! So if you watch it and you see McGarrett and Dano drive up to the Hilton lobby - I was there!!!!

I have seen the stage version of JCS numerous times and enojyed it every time. I remember one time, right before the show, they announced Ted wasn't going to able to perform because he wasn't feeling well. There was an audible sigh over the whole theater. Anyway, I own the movie version as well which I love because it is done on locations in Israel.

Guy walks into the barber shop
Barber says, "What will it be today?"
Guy says, "Well, I want it going with my waves on top,
folded on one side,
plug the other
and just make it all out of shape and messed up."
Barber says, "Now why in the world
do you want your hair cut like that?"
Guy says, "That's how you cut it last time!"

Enquiring minds wanna know:
have you still got those lovely locks
or did you don a crew cut on a dare (HA!)
Just curious ...

Hi Ted so glad to see that you are still doing JCSS, when are you coming back to CA? are you going to come to the Orange County Performing arts Center again? would sure like to see you, did you finally move to CA and did your wife set up that dance studio hat you were talking about let me know ok Take care and God bless you and yours.

Hi Ted - Just realized Nigel Lytgoe's
foundation is Dizzy Feet Foundation --
but hope Rubicon will dance away on
July 31st for the National Dance Day!
Going back to AZ to cool off!! Jeepers,
I left there to go to cooler weather, and
our heat index has been 110 lately!
Hope you are taking some time to relax!!
HA!, yeah, right!! Ted relaxing?! Just take care of yourself -- please! My best
to your family and friends out there -- give Alan a call --
And Morgan, you take care, too!
As ever,
Ann

Hi Ted, Morgan, and Everyone -- just wanted to post to everyone how excited I am -- yesterday, I sold my first acrylic
painting!! (no, Ted, not one of the drawing of you -- those aren't for sale!! HA!) Our class is hoping to do a small
show on Sat, but waiting to see if there is
space for us!
Feels so good to be doing my artwork again - if I were closer to Rubicon, I could take the Stinky-Feet Workshop!! and
then my next step is to play tennis again - would meet all my main loves in
life (at least the none person types!! HA! )
Just wanted to share!
As ever,
Ann

Hello I just wanted to say that I am really enjoying Ulysses the concert on my MP3 player, and working out or just walking with it. What a great album. Ted's voice is amazing, and the music is addictive. Thank you for making it possible to enjoy it this way.

I hope you are all enjoying the summer!

SMILE (Uncle Kracker)

You´re better then the best
I´m lucky just to linger in your life
Cooler then the flip side of my pillow that´s right
Completely unaware
Nothing can compare to where you send me
Lets me know that it´s ok yeah it´s ok
And the moments when my good times start to fade

You make me smile like the sun
Fall out of bed
Sing like a bird
Dizzy in my head
Spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold
Buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Ohh you make me smile

Even when you´re gone
Somehow you come along
Just like a flower poking through the sidewalk crack and just like that
You steal away the rain and just like that

You make me smile like the sun
Fall out of
bed sing like bird
Dizzy in my head spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold
buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Ohh you make me smile

Don´t know how I lived without you
Cuz everytime that I get around you
I see the best of me inside your eyes
You make me smile
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold
buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild

You make me smile like the sun
Fall out of bed
sing like bird
Dizzy in my head
spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold
buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Ohh you make me smile
Ohh you make me smile
Ohh you make me smile

p.s.: Ted, i hope you won't find it weird that i keep posting songs here....love, Jill

I have seen JCS numerous times in the past month alone. It's timeless in my mind. I pray you and your family are having a wonderful summer. I wish I had gotten the opportunity to see JCS on stage....thanks for all you do to share HIS story.

I am so sorry for not popping in sooner just to say "hi" I so miss everyone here and also Mr. Teds hugs that I just cant stand it. I do hope to see you again soon so I can tell you what the ENT doctor has said. Yes, I finally got enough guts to go see what the doctor says about my vocal chords and if there is anything that can be done...really nervous but anxious to hear the verdict......

Hi Ted -- I was looking at the shows for
Rubicon Theatre, and noticed the Stinky
Feet Workshops -- July 31st is National
Dance Day -- is your workshop part of
Niguel's organization of dance promoting
the 31st Day?
My best to you and your family -- gather
you are busy with whatever you have in the
works for Rubicon!!
As ever,
Ann

Ted,
Loved the performance this year. Was wondering if there will be a 2011 tour? I want to be ready to look for tickets!

Suddenly I realised to myself that I have not visited this site in months and have been communicating through facebook instead. So I figured it was well beyond time that I came back onto this page and said Hi to all my friends and Ted and Morgan and all my potential new friends. This page, and these people have helped carry me through difficult times and I want to say thank you to them all...I love you xxxxxx so here I am thinking I have to come back here and visit more often. Have a wonderful day....

I hope life is treating you kind. I had to laugh and share this with you. Molly was posting some of her artwork on her FB page, and her quote for this picture was....."Jesus......well Ted Neeley..same thing"....I have to tell her that you are just a rock and roll drummer from Texas....but see, see what kind an impact you made on her!! Enjoy your summer with your beautiful wife and family!!!! hugs

Hey Ted! Happy 4th of July! Miss you so terribly! I wish I could see you in JCSS, again. Maybe, someday! Have a wonderful holiday weekend, enjoy some bbq, light some fireworks, relax! Here is a picture of me leaning on your shoulder. Oh, to be there, again! LOL Take care, love you and your family! Thanks Neeley family for sharing Ted with all of us for so long!

Just found this website and think it is great. Been a fan of JCS since it first came out. Have a happy 4th

Ted, I have seen Jesus Christ Superstar numerous of times and I just wanted to say that you have a beautiful voice. Keep up the great work.

Greetings, Once again I have worn out another album, tape, and CD. Why I have waited so long to tell you of my greatest respect and thanks humbles me. My deepest appreciation for all your work especially JCS and please convey this to everyone involved. A shot of Jim Beam to salute you!

HAPPY 4th!! ENJOY the SUMMER! It'll be over in the blink of an eye. Be safe today, Morgan

Hi Ted, Morgan, and Friends!!
Wishing all of you a very Blessed, safe
4th of July Weekend!! In all our fun, let
us remember the true meaning of this day -
Blessings to our Troops, and all those who
daily help to give us our freedoms!!
Hopefully, most of you will be having some
quality family time - or a get-to-gether
with friends!!
Fly the Red, White, and Blue proudly - and keep it flying everyday!!
Enjoy all the events in your area, and
come away with a swollen heart of pride -
be grateful you are here in the USA!!
Blessings to All!!!
As ever,
Ann

Happy 4th of July!!!
Ted, Morgan
And everyone who visits here
(seen and unseen)
Have a great time!!

Ted, As promised, the next generation of JCS fans Alice Rose Born 6/26/10, I promised a picture and here u are, tried to send one on the facebook page, but I don't think it worked. Being a new grandma is wonderful, although strange, I am still mommy to my boys yet! lol! Enjoy your summer Ted and look forward to your next adventure! Love to you and your family! Aimee

Hello Ted: Here's hoping you have a fun filled Independence Day....I plan on seeing the local fireworks (that is if we don't get rained out again!) and a picnic at my little brother's house. Here's a little something I found in the Yahoo Images...hope you enjoy this fireworks display..... May God Bless and Keep you, Linda B.

Finally, tonight I ordered my Ted's t-shirt. I await in excitement for the delivery.
What about you all Ted's heads outthere?? Did you all already order your tee

Please someone!! Tell me which project Ted will embrace next!! I'd like to go and see him live on stage.
Devoted fan Ornella

Dear Ted,
I'm a big fan of your performance of Jesus.
You did a tour in America. When will you be coming to Europe (or better: the Netherlands) to let us enjoy seeing you perform?!
Regards,
Eelke

<------- Your picture

Sir Teddy,

Hi! Hope you are fine by now, this is another picture of yours which I took a snap from our Television set. At last it is a little better from those others which I took recently, so hope you like this one. By the way, some promoters here like Ovation Productions here in Manila and Steve O Neal Productions can bring lots of Foreign Performer here, maybe you can try to call them, but I will look for their telephone number first and I will write a message to you again. For now just enjoy your time okay God bless!!!

hey teddy i saw you in 2007 and in 2009 at the lyric here in baltimore cant wait till u drop in again i wiill definetly be at the show. hope all is well with u and i will be awaiting further tour updates untill than enjoy your summer. ur #1 fan amanda

.......so the day after i poured my heart out here, my mum said sorry about what she said and we made up i half-jokingly told her that i'll just sing JCS when she's not around and the day after that, when my mum went to her choir practice, as soon as the door closed behind her, i popped my JCS dvd in our Blu-Ray player - sneaky little bugger! - and got my JCS fix, and i was like "see how happy it makes me?" yeah...so we still have pretty much a forbudden love story here. but nothing in the world can keep Ted Neeley and me apart!

howdy Ted!

i don't know if it's right to bring this out in the open but i don't actually have anyone to talk to about this and besides i think my fellow Tedheads here would understand....

so, i was just a bit upset with my mom because she just told me that she's getting tired of hearing me singing Jesus Christ Superstar songs and watching the movie. she said that it seems to take so long for my JCS obsession to wane. i know that she could tell me anything but i couldn't help feeling hurt by that. my mom's not really a fan, you know. she doesn't really like the song "Superstar" for some reasons....sorry

anyway, i'm not gonna bore you further but i just gotta say, that no matter what anyone says, i'm still a true-blue JCS fan and a Tedhead as well not that im disobeying my mom, or something...it's just that i can't explain how ecstatic JCS makes me feel. well, i can always sneak up behind her back, right? and i only want to say, thanks heaps, mate let's just hope my mom changes her heart 'cos she doesn't know what she's missing....

Hi Ted, Morgan -- Just wanted to let
people know we have NOTR friends in the
recent tornado in Eagle & Muskegee, WI -
no injuries or deaths, but lost of power,
and a lot of damage - good to hear from
Lori that they are okay, even tho their
yard a mess - luckier than the houses around them that had heavy damage!
Keeping you all in my prayers!
As ever,
Ann

What a great family Father's Day! Looking forward to the next new Rubicon project. I sincerely hope everyone is well and happy. Thanks for all the generous Father's Day wishes.

a little song for you, Ted:

#Teddie's like a melody in my head that i can't keep out, got me singin' like nananana everyday. It's like my ipod's stuck on replay# ^^

Dear All - This is too good not to pass on. The following is a bumper sticker my husband saw on his way to work this morning (he e-mailed it to me).

"Honk if you (heart) Jesus. Text while driving if you want to meet him."

hi Ted!

wishing you a happy Father's Day, first off. you'll be getting another one in September,by the way, because that's when they celebrate Father's Day here September??? hey, your birthday also falls on that month, doesn't it?

having a good break, i assume? hey, i heard you're releasing another solo album soon. i kept thinking what would it sound like. but im pretty sure it would sound terrific because it's from Ted Neeley

well, God bless to you, Leeyann, Tessa and Zack. 'til next time! lots of love

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY TED! I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR NEXT THEATRICAL PROJECT!! I FIRST SAW YOU IN JCS IN 1973 AND NOW RECENTELY IN DALLAS TEXAS @ THE MAJESTIC THEATER. YOU WERE AWESOME! I MISS YOU, LET ME KNOW SOON WHERE YOU ARE GOING TO PERFORM NEXT AND IN WHAT PROJECT!!
YOUR DEVOTED FRIEND ORNELLA

I am so glad I was able to see the show last January when you were at the Arlington Theatre in Santa Barbara. I hope you got the tin of fresh cookies I made for you. I had hoped to give them to you personally, but you didn't stay to greet the audience that night. I gave the cookies to a lady named Brenda, who said she was (I think) your wardrobe person. She promised to give you the cookies the following morning. I hope she did.
Now that you live just down the road, I hope to bump into you now and then at the Rubicon. Or maybe up here.
I am glad for you though that you get to spend some time with the family. And that you can have a well-deserved vacation. You have enriched my life over the years, all of us who love you will miss seeing you in the show, and we all wish you well.
