Is there any reason why they can't do it differently next year then? If they really want that concert, FIRST can something that integrates the stage and other elements that need to be in the dome (i.e. FTC or FLL fields, Einstein, Awards stage, etc.). If FIRST designed it, it could be used for both. If Will.I.Am is so supportive of FIRST, I think he can use a different stage. I mean, it can be the same dimensions and everything as the one used last week, but with easier integration with FIRST.
I don't know, maybe I'm sounding like a complete idiot (it's been known to happen with me, lol). I'm just throwing out random suggestions. It's just like kickoff day working on design and strategy - Stupid ideas are the best ones
