THE SYMBOL STAGE WAS BETTER AT THE SUPERBOWL

at the superbowl they had neonlights that could change colors in form of the symbol the stage in london seems smaller and the the lights around the symbol are prefferated and not as brillant as the neon lights at the superbowl ...has anyone other than me noticed this with the 2 stages?

Wow, the stage looks awesome. Missed all of that in the floor seats!!! Glad I've got lower tier for the rest of the shows, it looks much better.

As for the stage, it definitely seems smaller than the Superbowl one. It's also quite new. Prince asked at one point if we liked his new stage and said that he just got it last week.
RIP sad

I was in upper-tier and felt like I was about to fall over a very high cliff, but I must say, the lighting effects of the symbol stage were spectacular throughout and could be seen very well from the upper-tier.

The colours and effects of the stage were constantly changing.

I have floor tickets for just one of my five nights with the rest all lower tier (at the side and at the front) so looking forward to seeing the stage/Prince etc from all angles.

Glad I have the floor experience once but suspect the A-H seats in the lowers tiers will be best in the house cool

P.S. Also glad I got my floor tickets for £31.21 as I would not be too happy had I gone for the VIP package - I feel bad for those guys actually (I made the decision to spend the same money but spread across more nights)

Exactly, teh VIP seats are no good at all. Far too low, far too near, to a stage thats far too high for those on the floor. Sorry VIP's, but you paid a lot for a boat cruise.

It was worth going VIP just for being in row b of block B2 (should have been in row d of D2, but that's another story)...He spent most of the time right in front of me. I could see every facial expression. The only bad thing is I have front row in B2 on another night via the auction and that cost half the price of the VIP package. I have row B in 111 tonight and row c in 102 tomorrow, so glad I'll get a mix of views. I'm not looking forward to Tuesday as I'll be in F2 row a and I'm guessing I'll just see Mr.Hayes playing all night. As cool as he is, I'd rather see the Master at work at all times.
I'm hot and I don't care who knows it...I got a job to do. cooked

It's not the same stage? I thought he bought the Superbowl one from the people who produced the segment.

nope if you have a clear picture from both stages you can see the Superbowl the outter stage stage is (High -Tech) Neon ( i like it way better the colors are just so funky)
and the London stage is prefferated round lites that are built in the floor and twinkle and can change colors as well ...but there is a differance...call me old fashioned ...i just like neon lights better


take a look..
