Would have loved to have been able for the acts to hear the laughter but was fabulous

Loved the evening and the difficulties were dealt with really well. Content was fantastic and loved the comedians, they dealt with everything with grace and would happily watch the same night with them all over again. Unfortunately I was constantly fiddling with the sound to the point I thought of applying for a job as a sound tech. I would definitely considering have some "smart hands" to control the video aspects so we can see who is talking and who is being spoken to, if possible within zoom. Another suggestion would be to nominate a small number of people who can turn their mic volume down for laughter and feedback and make them aware they would need to mute themselves to speak or if background noise got too much. So it's organic laughter but not distracting from the punchline. Everything else was superb and would jump ata second gig. Thank for doing this event to everyone involved and I appreciate there were some tough lessons learnt ready for round two. So definitely pat's on the back all around! Again mega thanks. Rob

I downloaded Zoom just for Happy Mondays, and it's completely worth it! Having MC Sion is what makes this work on any platform - truly immersive and welcoming to all.
