In odd and assorted locales... I know quite a number of the more "illustrious" characters who participate. Probably great fun to attend. Can't say the sound is guaranteed to be either good or bad... (like most audio shows) But it will LOOK GOOD!

That would exceed the rating of the tube by quite a bit, I would expect... fwiw, and imho.
