I have viewed several events at Atlanta's Fox theatre and have always been pleased. However, handel's Messiah Rocks leaves much to be desired. It features thee main vocalists: mike eldred, Ramona Keller, and Marty thomas. All three were excellent vocalists. Together, they harmonized beautifully. But the showmanship and the production was sub par. Many times, the singers appeared awkward when interacting with the composer and/ or each other. Marty was funny and I was always pleased when it was his turn to perform. Mike Eldrid and the young lady were okay.
The show also featured two guitarists. I think Alex and chris were their names. Chris had the most solos and may have been very talented. However, when he was supposed to be revving up his guitar, I was straining to hear them as opposed to covering my ears. The guitar sounded more like a kitty than an electric guitar. An easy fix to this may have been to simply turn up the volume.
I am leaning more towards the fact that the Fox was too large of a concert hall for this event. I don't think their equipment could support the volume needed to fill a room this size.
Also, I did not go for a theological experience. But the words to some of the songs were less than biblical to say the least.
