Rock Apocalypse - Perth
Mon, 11 Feb 2008, 05:03 pmI 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!

The Band
Fri, 15 Feb 2008, 02:01 pmWell, at least we enjoyed playing the music. I played the keys in the band, and there was a song called 'Broadcasting Live' which was my favorite song to perform in the show. And 'Bad Girl' (the opening song of act two) was a fantastic jazz number even if the singing was a little off.
There's been a lot of passionate writing in THIS forum. I just want to say that if they'd been given another month I thought the show would have been more successful. It would probably have been cooler too with lots of people commenting on the heat! Tighter performances as well.
I want to congradulate two people actually - I though Belinda (who played the dominatrix doctor) acted incredibly well throughout the entire duration of the play, and Tim for taking up the reigns of Ricky after I left the show.
That's right! I was the original Ricky! Dah-dah DAH! I had to leave the show just before christmas because I had to write two musicals of my own before Janurary, and after being thrown into the role of Ricky after the first guy left I didn't have the time to commit to rehearsals or learning lines - and there was A LOT of dialogue.
With two weeks before the performance all the music finally arrived and I was given a call by an old friend to play in the band, and since it didn't require as much attention as acting I was able to hop back on the bandwagon.. although the cast wasn't too happy with me when I was back... bit of a 'fopar' (spelling!?) if you ask me...
But I thought that Tim did a good job with what he was able to do realistically. But, then, yes, in the end it was for the audience who didn't seem to enjoy it as much as we did.
Oh, and I'm not your troll if that's what you were insinuating in your post before Tim. Shame!
