Anyone on the East Coast see this on Friday night?

Isn't this how War of the Worlds started?

OMG - we're all doomed!
That was just Chris Hadfield, Canadian extraodinaire, throwing his Friday Night Empty Beercans off the Space Station.

That last one was pretty big. Must have been a keg.
Supercan.
I'll head on down to Horsell Common tonight and let you know what I see.

^Great album, often hard to find at a good price. I have a version on CD that's 'abridged'. Gotta love Richard Burton as the narrator. :)
One of my favorite all time things ever in the universe is Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds. Before I die by getting hit in the head with a meteor I'd like to catch the tour.
He's touring? I did not know that. Is Justin Hayward preforming the vocals?
The tours have been going on for a long time. At some shows Richard Burton's narration is featured with a recording, and at others Liam Neeson does that narration:

No new dates for the remainder of 2013 but I'm sure more will come eventually.
I'm sure if humanity would just give up the combustion engine, energy production, and our industrial capacity; the meteorites would just leave us alone.
Gus, thanks for the Jeff Wayne info. Bookmarked for future enjoyment.
^Sure. I didn't know about the tours until recently, now I want to get and see one if they ever come to the US.
