[Sicy]

[Headache in a Suitcase]

penetration and crabs are not a good combo

I think the last photos/vids were taken when the structure was being dismantled. I expect the next photos will be from Barcelona.

i found this image online while doing a search on current stage developments

I like how most of the artist's conceptions, to this point, have misrepresented how thick the supports really are.

The supports are, in reality, box trusses:

Good luck seeing around those.

i believe the prevailing thought from those who actually have some sort of knowledge of this issue is that those box trusses are being used as lifts to hold parts of the stage in place as the construction occurs, and that they will be taken down when the actuall show occurs.

we won't really find out for sure who is right until the first show in barcelona

finally, now we can really get an idea of the scale of this thing..

My thoughts exactly, and from past images, it actually looks smaller in overall perimeter than I would have thought...

 

[Shawn Bonneau]

Getting a bit of a head start? Thought the build wouldn't start till the 15th. Guess Willie wants it built so they can do all the lighting stuff. The stadium has no other events this month??? I don't wanna know how much the venue is charging them

very cool. that means the band will probably start rehearsing in a week or two.

 

[ouizy]

I am really curious what this is going to look like with the four towers down and just the claw left standing (I have not seen any images of that and I am not sure anyone else has.)

I am also curious how much of that mess on the floor will actually be disassembeled for the GA also.

I still think they should hand out 360 Hardhats to everyone in GA on their way in...

lol, if that thing collapses I don't think a hard hat is going to make much of a difference.

 

[DontExpect]

judging by the space between those four steel supports they've placed on the turf it doesn't look like the top of the Claw will rise much higher than the top of the blue seat section.

also...that stadium is friggin hugeee

Yes, that's what I heard/read as well. I'm pretty sure they will be taken down.

So it's starting!

 

[Super Yo]

I think that we will see the complete stage in 10 days.

I'm so anxious !

 

[TheEdge1987]

Cool that someone could get inside the stadium now & take pictures like that. U2eastlink is usually pretty gud for info, looking forward to the regular updates!

No, it will be higher than that...

mark my words.

 

[Shane Madden]

Ive just been lukn at the plan of the stage in the nou camp and i tink it will...if not nearly...be as tall as the stadium. The base of the legs take up half a soccer pitch....2 legs at the corner flags and two a at the halfway mark of the pitch where the sheet on the field is...dis tings HUGE!!!!!

 

[Shane Madden]

FAIRLY BIG!!!

The claw will easily cover half the pitch... This thing is going to be absolutely amazing...
