Hi guys,
Just wanted to say, if any of you are into Jeff Wayne's war of the worlds then you MUST go and see it live, its bloody awesome. The quality of sound was brilliant, the stage craft was clever and the show was epic.There was a full orchestra and full band ( 6 guitarist,1 hot percussionist, and several drummers and electronic organists ) I love old school music, especially the progressive albums from the 70's. I was watching this and thought, soon, all these type of things will be gone. The guys who did them will be to old to perform. And then I realised, there's no music like this being produced anymore. I guess record labels want fast hits and sellable albums that are easy to promote. Big shame. Im a massive fan of epic, big sound, long instrumentals. Love pink Floyd too. Ive seen the Australian pink Floyd and im going to see them again next month, dudes they are really good and the show they put on is very visual. They are huge now and perform in full arena's, crazy!
Sound quality is poor, but just look at the tripod, cooooooool! This is the show I saw.
Heres an album clip on youtube, better sound.This is the intro to the whole story. Give it a go....
