Title: Stage design in 2002 and 2006 .... Post by: Chief on March 05, 2006, 02:48:52 PM What did you guys think of the stage setup in 2002?
Anyone know who designed it?? How do you think it will look in 06? Any ideas or suggestions? Any other comments are welcome.... Title: Re: Stage design in 2002 and 2006 .... Post by: nesquick on March 05, 2006, 02:54:47 PM I love the stage design in 02 with the electronic screens (Plasma?). It was modern and it kicked ass!
I hope the stage will be bigger this year. With even more lights, more screens, just big shows. :peace: Title: Re: Stage design in 2002 and 2006 .... Post by: Lucky on March 05, 2006, 03:04:01 PM I hope this time Axl will show up...
Title: Re: Stage design in 2002 and 2006 .... Post by: Thorazine Shuffle on March 05, 2006, 03:05:35 PM The design in 02 looked real similar to the stage design for NIN on The Fragile tour. I hope they do something just as good or better. Try to bring a "larger than life" atmosphere to the concerts.

Post by: Bono on March 05, 2006, 03:06:51 PM Axl should rip off U2 and go with some type of circular catwalk with fans in the middle. he likes to run around so it would be perfect. That type of set up ?brings the band so much closer to the crowd and makes the venues seem more intimate. It would be perfect for Axl.
Title: Re: Stage design in 2002 and 2006 .... Post by: nesquick on March 05, 2006, 03:13:37 PM yeah, the U2 stages are INCREDIBLE. It's huge, with huge lights, huge screens, plasma screens, everything is so modern, it's wonderfull.

Post by: dangnr on March 05, 2006, 03:31:41 PM U2's stage set up is incredible I seen them in Toronto.Something like that would fit for Axl imagine him runnin around doin laps. Maybe hhave a bunch of screens cool lights but most importantly NEW SONGS

WONDERFULL! :o Title: Re: Stage design in 2002 and 2006 .... Post by: oneway23 on March 05, 2006, 03:50:19 PM That design is wicked!

Cost reasons maybe. I agree dangnr watching Axl rip around a U2 style stage would be awesome! I kinda got off topic. This is about Gn'R's stage right :hihi: Title: Re: Stage design in 2002 and 2006 .... Post by: WhosGilby? on March 05, 2006, 05:20:05 PM The 2002 stage was cool but It kinda looked like a mass. I like the Illusion stage the best.
Title: Re: Stage design in 2002 and 2006 .... Post by: shaun on March 05, 2006, 05:26:44 PM They should stick with the ramp concept from the UYI tour and take it further:
(http://www.resenhagamers.blogger.com.br/sonic%20the%20hedgehog.jpg) Maybe with a set of magnetic boots it could be possible. Axl will just need to work on his leg muscles a little :hihi: Title: Re: Stage design in 2002 and 2006 .... Post by: the dirt on March 05, 2006, 05:28:46 PM That does look cool, Bono. But i'm not sure influencing axl with all that running room is in our best interest...

Could possibly have a pretty negative effect on the vocals. ;D Title: Re: Stage design in 2002 and 2006 .... Post by: ibelieveinaxl on March 05, 2006, 10:14:11 PM All I know is that I went to many the shows on 2002 and the lighting was total shit! Axl was in the dark when on the sides of the stage. You couldn't see him. Get a quality lighting guy!!! PLEASE
Title: Re: Stage design in 2002 and 2006 .... Post by: alexh0618 on March 05, 2006, 10:19:37 PM Isn't GNR just playin festivals for now? If so, I don't think they can have a very customized stage.
Title: Re: Stage design in 2002 and 2006 .... Post by: Layne Staley's Sunglasses on March 05, 2006, 10:32:35 PM How 'bout a Star shaped stage?
Title: Re: Stage design in 2002 and 2006 .... Post by: Chief on March 05, 2006, 11:21:15 PM yeah, that is true but i am just trying to get discussions going for their next stage setup for headlining shows. I'm sure the festival sets will be somewhat customized also.

already done...Rolling Stones 1975...actually opened up like a flower... I don't know how much customization is going to happen at a festival...it's basically a drum kit thing...didn't Axl just run off stage between guitar breaks anyway in 2002 ??? Title: Re: Stage design in 2002 and 2006 .... Post by: kaasupoltin on March 06, 2006, 04:18:46 PM I dont know about that 2002 stage.. it's too simple. But maybe it's just good for the audience. I prefer the UYI-stage.. a lot of different spots to play and so on.
Title: Re: Stage design in 2002 and 2006 .... Post by: nonlinear on March 06, 2006, 06:03:34 PM that stage you designed is pretty neat, but it would be tough for people in the center to see since the runway is elevated above the rest of the stage (so it would block out the stage.

Remember the Stones at halftime? Jack old pal, these fantasies have to stop! It's not healthy for someone to think about stuff like that as much as you do.

Back to topic.. I think GN'R's next stage should have a big ass poster like this (for garry) (http://www.fabricattic.com/rainbow%20play.jpg) Title: Re: Stage design in 2002 and 2006 .... Post by: Layne Staley's Sunglasses on March 06, 2006, 10:50:55 PM The colors, the colors! But yeah, the dying do have a keen appreciation for colors, so I'll let that one slide, I shouldn't tease the dying

Title: Re: Stage design in 2002 and 2006 .... Post by: alternativemonkey on March 07, 2006, 05:48:48 PM I was at Boston in 2002 and the Hard Rock in 2001. I thought the 2002 stage was embarassing: choreographed pyrotechnics . . giant chinese characters for . . . I would suggest that GNR strip to the basics . . . black stage, plug-in and play . . . Otherwise it seems to affected, unnatural, Broadway-esque . . . . plug-in and play no gimmicks. : ok: Title: Re: Stage design in 2002 and 2006 .... Post by: Layne Staley's Sunglasses on March 07, 2006, 05:51:12 PM Seriously, all those lights and the steam machine...I guess it was to hide the quality the band was, which wasn't very well most of the time. If you're good, you don't need all these bells and whistles, the music will do the talking.
