I agree, Ellen. The guy did his homework and I thought he very intelligently backed his opinions.

A website called LA Splash added this review to Sunday's Opening Night:

Does anyone else think Tommy Batchelor (seen here on opening night) just might be a Corey Snide or a Colin Bates in the making? I'm referring to his hat.

I love that hat and noticed in one of the videos of the boys walking into the theater. Tommy has a way of making fashion statements, ie: sun glasses, bright colored sneakers, and now the red plaid hat.

That hat style seems more in the domain of Frank Dolce to me.

Tommy's wardrobe stylin' appears to go back at least to his Tony Awards attire from last June (check out the black sneakers with the sports coat over one shoulder) http://www.billyelliottheforum.me.uk/ga ... =42&pos=25

Another review from the Southtown Star (wherever that is).
