God! No! Not a Johnny Cash musical!

[paudie]

The number of musical cash-ins seem not be abating in any way, and news that there is to be a Johnny Cash musical may sicken some of you.

Yes, Cash is to be "immortalised" on Broadway at the end of 2006 in 'Ring Of Fire', set on the latter part of his life, and directed by Richard Maltby Jr, according to US mag Variety.

The show will apparently feature 49 of his songs. 49!

Their releasing an American V as well. JC's last recordings.

Don't really see the problem with this once they do his music justice.
