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

Reason why Alice Coopers

Reason why Alice Coopers "Poison" was used... As shown in earlier scenes, Ash is beginning to give into the temptation of Tiffany, but begins to realise that Dawn is the one he loves. The symbolism of Poison is right there in the lyrics. I (Ash) want to love you (Tiff) but I'd better not touch I want to hold you but my senses tell me to stop i want to kiss you but I want it too much It's also implying that Tiffany is a "poison running through my veins", to his symbolic heart, therefore killing his love for Dawn in his heart. The reason we used a commercial song here is because the script called for music here, but we weren't given any score to use there (Same goes for the Rocky Fanfare) and yes, the company has a special licence, simmilar to that of a community radio station, allowing us to use whatever songs we wish. Thanks for all your feedback Nigel. It's greatly appreciated.
