War of the Worlds Live Stage Show

Yay! Tickets for Jeff Waynes musical version of War of the Worlds go on sale today. The show is going to be at the Vector Arena and will feature a giant 30 foot Martian firing rays at the audience, a hologram of Richard Burton as the reporter, 100 foot screens showing cutting edge CGI animation, and featuring original players on the album.

The stellar cast, from England, includes “Moody Blues” Justin Hayward and Chris Thompson of “Manfred Mann”, both re-creating their roles from the original album and the recent sell-out UK tour.

If you've never heard the album then where have you been hiding? A friend of mine turned me onto it in high school at age 15. It's a really great album.
