RE: Haley and Casey - CityWalkLA - August 10th
June 2011: Quote:Universal CityWalk debuts its 5 Towers outdoor concert arena Friday night, with the hopes of making it the center of free music in Southern California - and maybe the free world.
Five 42-foot high, steel tower sculptures define the concert space in CityWalk's main plaza, between the movie multiplex and the Hard Rock Cafe. The 31-by-24-foot stage is permanent, and there's an upgraded, 26-by-14-foot LED monitor mounted above it.
"We've had live music at CityWalk, probably, for a good 10 years," said Pat Donahue, director of CityWalk Entertainment. "But the 5 Towers is a game-changer for us. There's nothing like it in Southern California, and I think it's going to redefine the way people experience free live music.
"You're immersed in the energy and the whole vibe, and you kind of feel like you're part of the show," he said. "The barriers between the artists and the fans are completely removed."
Motion capture devices will project some concertgoers' silhouettes on the wall behind the stage. Thousands of light fixtures around the stage and on the towers can be programmed to complement the music and - when nobody's playing - the music videos that have long been a ubiquitous presence on the CityWalk Jumbotron.
Underground weight sensors will enable guests to control the volume of lights on the towers. And for those who've had the happy experience of not being able to hear themselves think when a concert's going on in other sectors of CityWalk, custom-built acoustical panels were designed to keep sound waves in the arena and minimize echo elsewhere.
The purpose of all this razzmatazz, they say, is to focus attention on the music.

That sounds like a good guess. How do you know he's attending?
I was wondering who might accompany her on instruments.
