Actually, a friend of mine went to this and she said it was very
disappointing. For the most part she couldn't tell that a scanner was
being used live and could only distinguish pre-recorded bits that he had
taken from britain (you could tell as the rings were different). Added to
that the fact that the visuals were kind of lame (come on- what with
those long clips from videodrome?!) and leary was especially grating
that night made the whole evening a bust in her eyes. Perhaps somebody
here could offer a different point of view or share his/her experience.
