This might not be the biggest news, but an interesting tid-bit nontheless :)

The stage from the Staples Center was supposed to be flown to London and used in the 02 for the concerts, but now it has found a new home in Telenor Arena in Norway. It was used for the first time yesterday for the Norwegian X-factor finale and, for the occasion, Dirty Diana was played as the host entered the stage. :)

I thought they were gonna do something with the TII stage show concept :( I guess it won't happen now...

BTW I'd love to see the props and the stage in their original, untouched form.
 
awww i also wished they were saving it to do the shows or something to show the vision michael had for these concerts - o well guess it wasnt "cost effective" to have the stay stored up and unused for ages "booo"
 
Ok, can we think 'real world' here for a second? Thats one seriously expensive stage, did you expect it to be locked away somewhere and never used again!? Michael is so much more than just a 'stage', I am sure he would be pleased to see it being used again to help fresh, new musical talent get a chance to share music with the world!

I have to say I agree, painful as it may sound that it won't be used for the concerts...
 
Oh come on people that's good news I was already afraid that they would just trash the whole stage and all the love and passion it was created with...Now as Chris said new talents can proof themselves on it:)
 
Very intresting :) Glad its being reused, better than it being locked away in a warehouse somwhere i guess :)
 
Thats cool! What an honor it would be for those guys to perform on that stage! Im glad its being used.
 
It looks like its just the stage and not that fantastic 30 feet by 100 feet LED-HD-3D screen!!!!!!!!!!!!

That screen is currently the only one in the world (I believe)!!!!!!
