Oh lord, it is finally happening. After many promises and failed attempts to get a SINGLE COPY of this massive musical, I have discovered a method wherein we can do a liveblog of A Very Potter Musical. And so, we shall do it.
Welcome, my fellow StarKid and Harry Potter fans. I feel as though I’ve already seen half of this musical through the sheer force of the GIF-age alone, so it’s now time for me to TRULY watch it.
This liveblog will take place on SUNDAY, JANUARY 16, AT 11:OOAM PST. In order to sync up our viewing experience, PLEASE USE THIS WORLD CLOCK TO MAKE SURE WE ARE ALL ON THE SAME TIME.
Since this is not on a DVD or single viewing source, below you will find our viewing schedule for each part of this musical, located on YouTube. We will watch each part and then have TWO minutes in between parts, so that ads/videos can load and you can take a pee break if necessary. We will have a 15 minute intermission between Acts I and II. This way, at any given time, you will know EXACTLY what video we are watching if you have to join in later.
If you have the time to do the entire thing, please not that due to the breaks/pauses between videos, this will take us over three and a half hours to accomplish. And yes, we will do A Very Potter Sequel soon as well.
Sound good? You are welcome to test out the links below to make sure they are correct. I cannot wait to give this a shot!
Please, if you can, send this out to people on Twitter, Tumblr, Facebook, etc. I know a lot of people from my MRHP days wanted me to do this and I couldn’t find the time or method to do it. It’ll be an awesome reunion of sorts, YES?????

FIN!
I love this song so much!
Dear Youtube, I know about the Harry Potter theme park… but I am trying to watch AVPM right now kthax.
I think the upcoming song might just be my favourite. Great performance.
Very, very closely followed by all the other songs. Those guys are just taht good!
STARKID THEME SONG.
(Or it should be.)
*Sways with lighter*
Awww I love this song <3
baby, you're not alone.
Not Alone is my favorite song from both AVPM and AVPS.
It's just so damn perfect.
Also, seeing Darren sing it live made me about pee my pants.
DAMN BOY CAN SING/PLAY.
Honestly he is the reason I am still watching Glee on a regular basis…
I love how Darren sings this song live so often 🙂 It's a really nice song
One of my favourite songs. Even though I like it better when Darren sings it.
But Jamie does a great job too!
Harry angst! Ginny too!
She has the best voice.
WHY DID NOBODY IN THE AUDIENCE LAUGH WHEN HE SAID PREPARE MY FLYING MACHINE?!
I love Ginny's voice
I just had an irrepressible urge to watch Darren's performance of 'Hey Soul Sister' on Glee. It's one of the few parts of Glee that I've seen and Darren makes it awesome.
NOTHING can make that song good.
No its amazing!! I hate that song so much. And I love Darren's version of it.
He does! I also loved what he did with Teenage Dream in his very first scene.
Mark, you know that Darren is on Glee, right?
WE ARE ALL SO PROUD OF HIM.
God I love this song. Thank you for this Darren Criss! So perfect.
Is it wrong I love these musicals more than the official films?
I love how this song both embraces this kind of song and pokes fun at it!
That's the whole musical in a nutshell I think!
It is a shame the sound just seems to die when Jamie is singing. Such a great voice.
And Darren's, of course :).
I really love the version of this that Darren does for the very starkid album. so perfect…
"Not Alone" will be played at my wedding. My hypothetical groom can just deal with it.
You can just marry Darren. Then you know that he'll be fine with it.
I voted you down because DARREN IS MY BOYFRIEND.
That was my plan…
Damn, I guess I'm not alone in thinking that (pun intended ;))
I can't marry Darren–one of my best friends is in love with him, and I can't do that to her.
However, I would be more than happy to marry Joe Walker/Joey Richter/Brian Holden/Nick or Matt Lang/any other StarKid guy, and then Darren could perform the song live at the reception.
This is how I feel about a lot of things relating to my future hypothetical wedding. Im having a live band with guitars and drums and I dont care what anybody says!
Awwwwwww Harry and Ginny *squees*
I love that Darren Criss sang this song before Teenage Dream at the Trevor Project Event. So appropriate.
LOL i hope you mean earworm. an earwig is a bug. xD
The first time I heard Darren Criss sing the bridge of "Not Alone," I knew he had some serious star power. I hope StarKid and Glee are just the beginning of a wonderful career for him.
THIS IS THE BEST SONG YET
THIS SONG MAKES ME CRY.
THERE ARE NO WORDS.
Darren, Darren, just please be my best friend forever and sing me songs and hang out with me for all eternity *hugs*
I love that Darren and Jaime's chemistry is wayy better than Dan and Bonnie…
Dan???
Darren is so unbelievable adorable in that scene!
Well the medallion says that's dumb, so we're not gonna do that.
It is lovely to see how they are so obviously pleased how well the harmony at the end worked out :D.
BEST.SONG.EVER.CLAPS.HANDS.
GOLDEN TRIO HEARTWARMING MOMENT +Ginny
Also Ron makes my life.
Or I would blast it into space with a monkey who knew nothing about Horcruxes.
Favorite line!
I love Hermione's awkward pose at the end of the song.
"Well, the medallion says that's dumb, so we're not gonna do that…"
Now that we've got that four-part harmony out of the way…
"Well, the Medallion says that's dumb."
Or i would blast it in to space with a monkey that knew nothing about Horcruxes
That's awesome, I love Hogwarts!
I am LOVING these harmonies! This song is the best!!
"It says it's in Dumbledore's office."
"Oh, bitchin"
A monkey who knew nothing about horcruxes. . .
Appalause! Appalause!
Well the medallion says that's dumb…
Raise your hand if you want Darren to sing this song to Kurt on Glee?
No matter how many times I watch this scene, it makes me smile 🙂
'Well the medallion says that's dumb, so we're not gonna do that!'
"Well, the medallion says that that's dumb, so I'm gonna go with that."
i find draco so attractive…. and i'm a girl… but technically draco is played by a girl so technically a girl but she's playing a boy… CONFUSSIIIIIOOOOON.
Yeah, I think that's basically the reaction of all female Starkid fans.
*AM DETERMINED TO MARRY LAUREN ONE DAY, EVEN THOUGH I'M STRAIGHT*
Nuh-uh, I'M marrying Lauren!
Oh Hermione XD XD Sadly, you can barely hear her best line.
I love how Ron is on the floor showing off.
Ah, it's in Dumbledore's office. Bitchin'.
It's in Dumbledore's office
Aw bitchin
Malfoy wants his harmony
As Ginny said, I'm really nice now!
I find Joey's crooked jaw ridiculously adorable. Like it's totally endearing, LOVE HIM.
FAVORITE MALFOY PART IN AVPM.
"Well, I guess if you're giving me the option, I'll kick my own ass."
I thought maybe I could, maybe I could chime in but you wrapped it up before I could chime in there, so.. maybe if you do a reprise I could have a little go at it…
"I'll kick my own ass"
Oh god. Here comes the most awkward thing in the history of ever…
"Oh…well I guess if you're giving me the option I will…kick my own ass."
"Hey Hermione, c'mon downstage."
'Ah. Well, I guess if you're giving me the options, I'll… I'll kick my own ass.'
lol Come downstage… listen… ah shit…
I love this whole scene. All the breaking of the 4th wall/meta stuff.
Plus Joey forgetting his lines and saying "awww, shit."
I thought that was just Ron being "CRAP WHAT DO I SAY TO HER"
No, he actually forgot his lines there. In fact, Joey's known for screwing up his lines a lot. It's adorable.
well it worked there. made sense! lol
BEST PART coming up! So incredibly amazingawkward
OH GOD HERE IT COMES~~~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well, I guess if you're giving me the option, I'll kick my own ass.
lol jerkass. Must put that in my regular rotational vocabulary
Oh god, this part. This part.
"Wrapped it up before I could chime in there…"
Ron and Hermione, awww!
"HEY HEY HERMIONE. Come here. Come downstage."
Oh, THIS next scene has to be seen to be believed :D!
Im cringing in anticipation
