Just watched/listened to the OnDemand of this past Sunday's live presentation. Overall, I think they did a good job. There were a few places where mics weren't quite loud enough when they were brought up for certain parts, but they adjust fairly quickly. Instrument mix suffered more than the vocal mix. John Legend did very well in the lead, certainly has a vocal range. The guy doing Judas' range was really too high, think they key-changed some of his songs. Alice Cooper - best he could do for a 70-year-old. Wonder how he makes it through his current shows. Certainly doesn't have a lot of strength left in his voice.
I was a big fan of the original recording, but not the movie version.
Saw the 1971 traveling rock show version, then a 'theater in the round' version in 75 with Mark Volman ('Flo' of Flo & Eddie) as King Herod.
