totaleefree Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 (edited) This is 10 days to build, 5 days take down, I have no idea why people think it can't be taken down and a stadium returfed in 46 days. Gen COn is also the week before DCI and they plan to be in Lucas Oil The Indianapolis Colts’ home dome will have its turf replaced starting in March 2024, per Monica Brase, a public information and marketing manager for Lucas Oil Stadium and the Indiana Convention Center. The project is estimated to cost $1.2 million and be completed by July 2024. The old turf will be removed in March because Lucas Oil Stadium is slated to host the USA Swimming’s Olympic team trials from June 15-23. It says completed by July in the Press release.

Crazy echo in that dome with the round design & lack of sound dampening materials. ✅ During the show the first time we turned backfield I totally lost the beat. Had to stop playing and look at peoples feet. Would love to hear a recording to know how bad the sound was. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always thought renting out stadium seats would be profitable for event organizers. not connected, i just have bought seats so many years i get the notification for the early purchase option Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that it is unlikely (& unwise) to comment about ongoing litigation. But closing cost / revenue gap is key to long term success - I would think that this could get a mention, esp considering there were no rules proposals to distract us this year.

People would have their horns down and you’d still hear them playing. I have heard horror stories of marching at The Metrodome. My directors are like “however bad you think the echo at US Bank is, the Met was even worse”. Considering the RCA dome was very similar to the Met, I can imagine how bad it would be lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
