This is not much less than the Hershey Park Stadium. The city of Moncton has already planned for the use of the facility by concert goers. For example, the field can be covered to protect the turf from the staging and from the fans.

U2 is a possibility. One of the reasons why they are unlikely to play Magnetic Hill is that their current stage is a "theatre in the round", which makes no sense in a (natural) amphitheatre. This type of stage however would be perfect for a stadium.

If U2 can play Hershey, they can certainly play at the Moncton Stadium.
My thoughts exactly....Bring it on.....
