u2 downunder

“Part of the tour will finish in Australia and another part of the tour will finish in South America, where people could use a nice concert pavilion in a park, which has an ability to take 200 tonnes of kit hanging under it,” Mark Fisher [stage designer said).

The article talks about how U2 want to see their innovative “claw” concert stage used as a local park concert venue, as their tour ends.

So on behalf of U2, this blog is taking nominations for parks downunder. Please leave your reasons in the comments section.

  4. Hi Steve,
    A few suggestions….
    Newington Armoury Site at the back of Sydney Olympic Park… so they have a place to come and play on the main tour next time
    Next to Eastern Creek raceway western Sydney
    Floating on Newcastle Harbour
    South Wallsend Soccer Oval just down the street from my place
    Dubbo NSW so we could run our national youth event NCYC out there!!

    Cheers Steve,
    Bring it on…
