LIGHT PANEL THICKNESS... AM I SEEING THINGS?

Has anyone else noticed that the panels that hang above the band during their shows in Australia are considerably thinner then the ones used in the US and presumably Europe?

Check the thickness of the panels in these shots taken in Brisbane last night (especially the first photo) to the ones used in the US (last photo). I'm sure they were downsized for transport purposes to Australia/New Zealand - trying to minimize expenses. Doesn't appear to change the effect they have.  Just something I noticed.... Or am I seeing things?

FLEETWOOD MAC CONCERT HAD A PROFOUND INFLUENCE ON ALICIA KEYS

"I wanted melodies that really soared, like the ones I heard at
that (Mac) show."

About two months before recording The Element of Freedom, Alicia Keys witnessed an event that would have a profound influence on her creative process: a Fleetwood Mac concert.

"It was my sister's birthday, and she wanted to see them," says Keys, 29, referring to longtime best friend Erika Rose. The R&B singer/songwriter knew of the veteran band but wasn't entirely familiar with its catalog. "So everyone was like, 'What? You don't know these songs?' "

I believe it was one of the Madison Square Garden shows in NYC last spring where Stevie dedicated Landslide to Alicia Keyes that night.

Eagles, Fleetwood Team Up

Stadiums could be in for a treat in 2010 with a monster co-bill that’s gearing up to take flight.

Sources close to Eagles and Fleetwood Mac have confirmed exclusively to Pollstar that they are routing a tour, as was previously reported to be under consideration on livedaily.com.

The bands have apparently been looking into a trek through arenas, baseball and football stadiums coast to coast.
