Here's the proposed new design (from channel 6)



I like the new design.  Looks pretty cool..

sgrizzle, do you know if that's Shelby Navarro's rendering?  I'd heard he was donating his design services to the project?

The look of the new design is ok,,, but my very first thought was "that inside part is going to seriously catch some wind and put some major stress on the structure and the screen panels."

Well, I doubt any engineering has been done on it yet to determine if the design is feasible.

Okay, It thought I was pretty good with math, but..

Organizers said they had raised $30,000 before the concert, the concert raised $17,000 so now they have $33,000.

Spent $ 14,000 on expenses, so far.

I don't share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently.  I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.

I'm glad it will be made of steel. This one will last forever. I am worried that there will not be enough money for it. I thought they had over $60,000 turns out they only have around $35,000 even after the two concerts. BTW I could hear that Oct. 16th concert at my front door, they were that loud. I live just two blocks away from the Admiral twin - I kicked in another $10.00. I bought a "T" shirt last month from "Big Foot" at the south gate. I really hope they can get that screen built. I liked the design of the orgional screen with those 4  "Chimney" like things on top. They still have to raise alot more money. ???

Yeah, that's what got me. I was figuring they had around $60,000, now I find out it's still $35,000 something, Plus, Alot of stuff is being donated I even heard the arch. will donate his design and Home Depot made a donation. If that kind of math keeps up the Admiral will not be back. The more they raise the less they get.. >:(

Very nice, looks just like old one, I don't think the side will be open - they are just showing what it will be like inside with a steel frame, -That is my guess or maybe it will be open- they can also build the frame  the way  a electrical transmisstion tower is built but that may cost more.

Prove to me then that you live here.  You still haven't done so since you 'allegedly' moved here.

Yep, that speaks volumes to me.

How's Omaha this time of year?

Oh, many of the posters on here have met me, so they actually know I've physically been in Tulsa within the last 20 years.  How about yourself?

Omaha is cooling off at this time of year according to the weather report. I met posters from other forums I post at and I met 'em all in Tulsa, none from this forum that I know of. Let's keep this topic on the Admiral Twin & not about Sauerkraut. ::)
