thanks hoops. When i logged on and saw your post, I raced in with me car, and was blown away. They had every panel lit up, doing special patterns. It was in a pink, red, yellow sequence, and looked far better than I ever expected. Everyone seemed to be walking past, staring with disbelief. I was amazed of how well it stood out.

How faaaaaaaarrrrrrrrkin cool is this :P :P :P :P :P :P :P

After coming home from the soccer really pumped because we won 3-0 I noticed that Rundle Convergence was being tested.

As I have written in previous posts I haven't been all that impressed with what I've seen so far from the testing that has been done. Tonight was different though they were testing the whole thing, all panels were lit up and as you can see from my photo's it looks really amazing when the whole thing is going !!! It was mind blowing.

The photos below are quite big so make sure you maximise the window to see the whole
pictures.

What a night !!!

Unfortunately they turned it off a couple of minutes after I started taking photo's so I was only able to take 2 pictures. It turned off just after 10:00pm. I don't know what time it started because I was watching Adelaide United kicking ass at hindmarsh !!!

Did anyone else see the testing and can give an estimate on when it started ?

Now this is what makes Sensational Adelaide!
How bloody fucking cool is it? When I saw the testing at first , I couldn't quite fathom the scale of impressiveness this would turn out to be, and its even better than I even fathomed it to be! Definetly a conversation-starter this one!

And I really like the angle of the first pic, which I think would make for a good picture replacement to the Sensational Adelaide banner. (Just for now at least, because the Currie St Tower looks to be a while off, and we might as well pride ourselves on this before we pride ourselves with the Wave Tower.)

That looks fantastic.
If anyone is in the area tonight, would love some HQ pics and video?

Looks really good on the webcam - and that's with just the 5 second refresh too!
