AC DC Concert Stage (Montreal) – Colorful Lights by Anirudh Koul on Flickr.

A través de Flickr:
ACDC Concert Stage in Montreal (Olympic Stadium) on 8th August, 2009 (Black Ice Tour). This definitely was one of the most colorful concert stage lighting I have seen. Nearing the color of this stage would have to be Genesis (with Phil Collins) and Bon Jovi.

Apart from the music (which I don’t even need to mention), ACDC introduced quiet a bit of technical lead over other concerts. CGI animations at the starting, crashing a whole steam locomotive on the concert stage and then a 6 story long giant inflatable doll riding that locomotive, firing artillery canons, giant bells, speakers with giant glowing red horns. To get the scale of audience, there were 46 giant speakers alone for the audience seated in the balcony. After all, that’s what happens when a classic band like AC/DC performs – pulling a crowd of around 53,000 people to the venue. No wonder they had to rent the Olympic Stadium.

I was barely able to see AC DC from my location initially, all I could see was hands of thousands and thousands of hands making the ‘Sign of the horns’ and blocking my view. The crowd in my section then stood up on their seats, so the situation became a much better. Later, I folded some paper and put it under the seat legs, giving some extra visibility. As they say, necessity is the mother of invention.
