I was just wondering if anyone saw Rock Apocalypse in Padbury which has just finished I think. I really wanted to go and see it but couldn't make it and wanted to know what it was like! Can someone put a review up of it? Thanks! Am

Oh yes. Bad was great but as someone else mentioned definetly on the loud side. They drowned out anyone on stage without a Mic (A problem given the previously mentioned slow kick-in of the Mic's). Memorably, the first musical number with the Dead Heads fixing a TV. Three of them on stage singing along and I couldn't make out a single note from them. It's a tricky one given that the venue is not a Tardis. Perhaps move them to the back, but then we wouldn't get to see them... Put them back stage would probably work best, but similar problem. Some kind of sheet creating a soft wall between them and the stage might of made people on stage more audible while leaving them visible to most of the audience. But yes, a tricky one. Just thought the band deserved some Props.
