Take a look at this remarkable time-lapse video of the conversion of Shrewsbury Town’s Greenhous Meadow for an Elton John concert this month.

This footage, producing by Wayne Davies Photography, covers the preparation of the venue, the concert itself, and the conversion back to a football ground.

    Stunning photography – really interesting to see how a “pack flat” stage gets erected. And the floor and seating.
    And a brilliant concert as well – a super day out – we really enjoyed it.

    Fabulous Wayne, thanks so much for letting us see this. It’s like watching an animated Lowry paintng!

    I liked the climbers going up their fragile ladders just before the concert began then hauling them up once sitting in their very high perches. I did not take our camera so could not film it unfortunately.

    This was brilliant to watch! I love the Lowry analogy above! Perfectly described! I didn’t go to the concert but absolutely loved watching this video. Very very interesting and entertaining, thank you for sharing it.
