Memphis did win BEST MUSICAL among other awards...but did not win all 8 that it was nominated for. I'm sure someone else will post all the wins here at some point, but I did see David get his Tony for Best Musical....hated that he didn't get to give a thank you speech.

Congrats!!! I scared my cat when they won. He jumped a mile when I screamed. ;D
Did you see Jon give a "shout out" from London O2? That was cool. David did talk earlier, not for winning Best Musical, but for another award (can't remember right now) off air. He was funny.
