Gadget Show Live! No….for real, its going to be on TV on the 5th May 2016 – check it out!
To kick off the GSL the the first audience demo was actually comparing Vinyl on a turn table to MP3 quality from a smartphone via a sound proof chamber…….lets just say the Vinyl out played the MP3 (of course!), maybe history will repeat itself with Vinyl becoming more of a trend? Who knows!2016420-33
2016420-34Here they invited a group of performers who used the hoverboards as a mode of transport for their dance moves….we tried a hover board and landed in the ditch! Lets say we shall keep out feet on the ‘old terracotta’ (Slang for ground ha!)
Here a lady was invited on the stage to demo some virtual reality gear, in completely different world (under the sea) the crew brought on a T-Rex and when she removed the glasses was scared! Poor lady!2016420-35
and so everything must come to an end, but the Gadget Show Live will be one to remember, watch out GSL, next year we will come for you!
