Hamburg 07.09.17 - Soundcheck & photos of the stadium, which is built only for this concert in the city park.
Soundcheck "Gimme Shelter" - Live footage
Hello fellow steemians,
Today, i took a walk to the city park of Hamburg, Germany. I wanted to check out the area, where "The Rolling Stones" will play their opening concert to the european "No Filter" Tour, starting at 09.09.17. Upon arriving, The Stones started some soundchecking & rehearsals, which was a pleasant surprise. As the area is surrounded by 11km of fence, it was hard to get a good view. Sorry for the bad quality of the handy footage. Im quite a newbie when it comes down to photos & filming. The last time a concert took place at the city park was Pink Floyd and David Bowie in the 80s. The Stones chose this area because of the sound quality it can provide.
This is how the stage building looked like on 05.09.17 (concert 09.09.17)
