U2 is coming to Montreal next July. Normally this isn't a problem, and I'm sure their fans are very excited for it. But this time, instead of playing at the Bell Centre, they're playing at the Hippodrome De Montreal. The seating there isn't enough to fit all of the people who'd come to the concert, so they're going to be building seating and a stage for them to perform at.
The cost of the seating and stage: $3,000,000!
The amount of time that the stage will be put to use: A few hours!
Isn't Bono a humanitarian? Isn't there somewhere else that the 3 million should be going to? Possibly to the starving children?
Seriously. Building a $3,000,000 stage set, using it for one day, then destroying it and building condos and/or offices in its place. This is ridiculous.
