New Everton Stadium - Hill Dickinson Stadium

[Preki]

Never seen Rick Astley have you mate? Or Boyzone in their prime?

 

[Blue peter]

Well, let's follow the boutique nonsense that pervades these days...

The Everton Stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock

sounds rather chic.

ESBMD sounds like a lingerie range at Anne Summers though

Need to fix the leaky roof first

Anyone got any idea what the capacity of both stadiums is when set up for concerts.
There's likely more money made from hosting at anfield just from a capacity POV
but I'd imagine promoters would much rather deal with BMD which would be plug and play so to speak.

I believe for Taylor Swift they had the stage at the Anny Rd End so any benefit from that capacity was lost. If they had the stage at the North End of BM then concert capacity for both stadiums would be pretty similar IMO.

Wash your mouth out mate Springsteen is a legend. He's still the best live act in the world.

Tell us you’ve never seen Iron Maiden without saying you’ve never seen Iron Maiden

Be hundreds of thousands on this festering Isle alone young fella. You stick to Ed Sheeran.

I've got 3 rs season ticket holders primed and ready to go with alerts on there phones for the pre sales

Not everyone who listens to music is a social media using pre pubescent schoolgirl like you. They make up a tiny percentage of concert going fans.
You'll understand when youre older

Btw, this old fart would still bum you to death.
Twice on a Sunday.

You wish, you can't match my youthful* energy, old man x

Anyway I listen to the same old crap you do, that wasn't my point, but you got your knickers in a twist over people not fawning over a 75 year old musician ffs

It's what will bring infinitely more attention overall, not who's the better musician or who goes on social media more. If both concerts happen even on the same day, you know which one will be more talked about everywhere (social or normal media), stop being so catty x

Springsteen at Anfield will be sold out in half an hour

Probably.

Still not the point if he's a good or famous musician for gods sake - he is, we know, he's just ancient. Think of marketing in 2024, not of how good he is. In the 80s he'd probably fill the entire city of Liverpool, but it's not the 80s anymore and other people can do that, and you need to spin conversation if you want to make it a famous venue.


Anyway, this is tiring at this point. Springsteen is not getting younger, we'll have a new stadium, new places to bum, all the rest.


* I am not very youthful at all sadly

As I’ve said to someone else, doesn’t matter if you like them or not, others do and in massive numbers. They’d both make this club a lot of money next summer.

There's not gonna be any concerts there next summer. From what I've been told, I believe it would ruin the pitch. 2026 is the earliest expected concert at BMD.

Quite.

Bit heavy for me but fair play.

 

[Davideeyore]

In all honestly, I think the Everton Stadium is a branding opportunity for the club that shouldn't be missed. Therefore, if there is a naming rights deal, I hope it is something like The Toyota Everton Stadium. Of course, The Everton Stadium with Toyota would be hilaruously pretentious.

Agree. Naming rights too go an opportunity to miss. If it was Toyota for example it should just be Toyota stadium or arena. Daft having 'Everton' shoehorned in.

Such an opportunity would be a game changer.

 

[thirdmantackle]

When's the first concert? Cannot wait

 

[aglee]

Bit heavy for me but fair play.

Ahhh. Check this out though. It’s like a lesson in musicianship and crowd engagement. Now here’s something we could hope to get in the new ground. Ok they’re playing West Ham’s stadium next year but would be great to get stuff like this at BMD!

 

[Dixieslaces]

Be hundreds of thousands on this festering Isle alone young fella. You stick to Ed Sheeran.

Is right

 

[Blue Smoke]

Love to see metallica there. Hopefully that would inspire the club to have players run out to 'the ecstacy of gold' for our matches
