Stadium ready to rock Robbie

PROMOTER Michael Chugg is adamant there will be no massive queues, food and beverage shortages or transportation woes when Robbie Williams hits Suncorp Stadium this week.

 

He said the venue was close to the city and was used to handling huge football crowds, with the public transport system primed and raring to go.

"ANZ Stadium (which hosted the Irish supergroup) was always a hassle because of where it is and the limitations of transport," Chugg said.

 

He said while Williams might be Suncorp's first concert since its Lang Park days, he had no doubt about its ability to cope with the demands of 52,499 screaming fans.

 

"There's a lot of work going into it but it's not really a trial for us," Mr Chugg said.

 

"I would hope we'll be able to do more shows here because I'm tipping Brisbane will be the show of the tour."

 

Mr Chugg said the best management and production team had been employed to bring everything up to scratch at the stadium before Williams's arrival.

 

He said the star's travelling set, which was three years in the making, took 200 crew, 360 tonnes of equipment and a fleet of trucks and buses almost a week to assemble.

 

It includes two giant scorpion tails measuring 66m by 26m, eight giant tusks made from 6800 LED blocks and a 125m video wall.

 

Suncorp Stadium general manager Alan Graham said Williams's crew had begun transforming the venue yesterday, ahead of the singer's performances on Wednesday and Thursday nights.

 

"That will ramp up tomorrow and obviously over the next couple of days," he said.

 

"What we need to do is make the venue user-friendly for them so that their specific needs and requirements are met."

 

Mr Graham said stadium staff had been sent to several of Williams's other Australian performances to get a feel for the act, to make sure everything ran smoothly on the night.

 

He said Queensland law required Williams's show not exceed a 100-decibel limit inside the stadium and 70 decibels outside, with a Government-hired contractor sitting with the sound crew at all times to ensure those restrictions were not breached. :unsure:

 

Mr Graham said extra staff had also been employed at the stadium's call centre to deal with all public complaints including noise.

 

Mr Chugg said, due to a rearrangement of the stadium setup, there were still good seats available in Gold and Silver Reserve.

 

Contact Ticketek on 132 849 or www.ticketek.com.au for more details.

 

 

 

Still tickets available :unsure: off to book my flight! :yahoo:

 

 

Lets hope everyone at the back of the stadium can hear Robbie ;)
