The “damp” blog by Lucas Lindholm offers some interesting insight to the preparation of Roxette’s new stage equipment for the upcoming European leg of the Charm School World Tour. The more-or-less locally rented stages of the previous tour legs seem to get replaced by more dedicated touring equipment. Per hinted at stage upgrades in an interview early August:
The successes of the first half of the tour means that Roxette will be travelling with a larger stage and more equipment. We need to improve it a bit for the autumn tour.
The photo galleries so far picture the work on September 26, 27 and probably 28. So who’s able to describe the visible technical upgrades, any experts out there?

maybe they mean Hippotizer, than it can be this: http://www.green-hippo.com/products/hippotizer-hd take a look at!
Yes, I think so. Still don’t know if it’s just a light beamer application or maybe feat. video.
Maybe the Hippotizer will drive an LED curtain/wall replacing the current backgrounds. As I saw this media server can mix multiple layers of pre-recorded material, graphics and live camera picture with special effects, and can be programmed for different 3D surfaces. Anyway, it sounds interesting.
