5/10
Entertaining but could be better.

I'm a big music fan and this show really intrigued me. Just watched the first episode, and with the grand title of Battle of the Stadium rockers I had high hopes. U2, fair enough, although on the pop side. But Coldplay? No dissing the band, I really enjoy their music, but not a rock band, pop, AOR at best. I was thinking Kiss, Def Leppard, Iron Maiden, Metallica, Queen, Rolling Stones etc. Surely there must be some decent cover bands of these guys out there? Just a side note, at the beginning, when the host asked Adam Lambert what it takes to get to stadium status,, what the heck does he know!!? His answer should have been, "Wait for the driving force behind one of the greatest rock bands of all time to die, then camp it up at the audition to replace him." And PS, I haven't agreed with any of the winners they have chosen after 6 episodes. Feels like they're going for popularity over talent.
