    Default War Of The Worlds 30th Anniversary Tour

    Saw this at the O2 last night, and wow, it was amazing! I'm still too blown away by it to write much coherent comment, so maybe later. Were any of you lot in the 14,000-strong audience?

    No, but I have the DVD and it's awesome - the synth bits sound immense in 5.1

    I think I'd like to go and see this sometime!

    I always thought the problem with War of The Worlds is you get the best song right at the start! After that it's a bit of a comedown, but I bet there's still loads of excitement in the stage production.
    Pity. I have no understanding of the word. It is not registered in my vocabulary bank. EXTERMINATE!

    I considered going to see it in Manchester but sadly it clashed with a wedding.

    Was Jennifer Ellison good value?
