I think it will be slightly different. I'm wondering if the catwalks will be removed since I don't see where they could go in the amphitheatres? Also, I noticed how the June 21, Vancouver date is the last of the 'arena' shows, then they go back to Europe, and then back in the US for the 'outdoor' shows... So maybe that's why it's separated like that since the stage will change?

Bigger, thats it.

 

I went to an outdoor venue, and they did the exact same thing, B-Stage and they had their C-Stage as well. It was a festival, so I imagine they'll add the cat walks, Chris seemed trapped to me. But have no fear of losing the B and C-Stage. They feel passionate about those, Will saying they had to in Dubai in the pouring rain...

 

They did do butterflies, and they hadnt re-introduced the Yellow Ballons at that point.

Mmm, well I'm just wondering how logistically they are going to do it... I mean, outdoor shows like that in Abu Dhabi had removal seats and all, but most amphitheatres are not... But I did notice most of the pits are general admission, so maybe the pit is where the catwalk goes? I just don't see how they could extent into the general audience like at the arena shows... I've seen seats selling in rows A, B, etc. so they definately are keeping the general amphitheatre layout...

I imagine so. They may dismantle for the Amphitheater, what they did for Pemberton was the B-Stage off to the side, I mean side too.

 

But they'll still come out and play acoustic. Its easy to extend into the pit with a ramp though. Especially into GA, no seats, no problem. The one venue they are playing Im familiar with, The Gorge, has all stands then GA so maybe you are right.

 

I expect something cool none the less.

I think the concerts with GA pits in front will still have the catwalks... I mean, they're not as long as they look, it wouldn't be too hard to stick them in the pit, same as when there's floor seating at an indoor arena. And they won't get rid of the butterflies, Chris said that it's the best thing that they've ever done live ;)

I can tell you for Pemberton, I observed what to me seemed like giant fire extinguishers. I suspected they held the butterflies, and sure enough they did.

 

There were either 2 or 4, all maned by Rodies and they shot them right from the stage only. Have to say it was so freaking cool, with the blue sky, the colors of the butterflies and the pink lights.

 

Another cool thing about the outdoor shows, the Clocks laser, when Will said it seemed like it never ended, he was not lying. I was in awe! Trust me, the show is amazing outdoors.
