actually liked this episode quite a bit I thought it was fun and it felt very long.   30 minutes in I was amazed that I still had another half hour to go. As far as Eddie and Michael being in the audience they've never done that many interviews if any, so them not getting on stage to talk doesn't surprise me at all. They said during the interview that Geoff always did most of the interviews for the band so I'm not sure why you are surprised that they didn't come up to talk, when  they never have before for the band. Dave was cool and I really did like the episode I think the season shaping up to be one of the better seasons at first I didn't like the new format and the new stage but I think it actually is pretty good and feels very professional and yet still fun and spontaneous.  I'd give the show a 3.5 out of 5. I definitely would watch it again.
