Starlight Express - Michael Quinn - Greaseball 2017

[@OceanbornAngel]

I seriously could see Tyler Hanes playing Greaseball in a Broadway revival of Starlight Express. His Rum Tum Tugger was extremely popular and basically Greaseball has that same energy.

[@bi_cycle]

I think Tugger is more like Electra

[@marcusblackwell2372]

​@@bi_cycle But more friendly and slightly mysterious

[@bethanygrishaw7159]

Except Greaseball’s female in the revival

Thinking back this song, german show, was the awakening of my romantic feelings. My dad: Who do you prefer as winner? Me: Diesel Dad: Why? Me: He dances like Elvis with skates on Dad: laughs, that's my daughter.

Great to read these memories! I saw it twice in Sydney in 1987 and these songs just stuck instantly. The lyrics, particularly in this one are ingenious. I still have “listen to the chatter of the diesel force/generating 2700 horse” right there at the top of my mind after almost 40 years lol. It’s pretty bizarre but I love it! Lucky you to see it at the Apollo. 👌

It’s hard to tell, but the actor playing Greaseball is wearing padding in the sleeves of his costume to simulate muscles!
