It is the sound of silence from the 'This stadium is a White Elephant' brigade - isn't it beautiful?

Still, its not as quiet as 'World Cup will be a disaster' brigade!

ROCK ON CAPE TOWN!

Not every event is going to attract 40 000 people - but they are adding up, getting a roll on, concerts coming up etc - looking to have a bright future.

BMW 6 Series in SA





Gallery shows new BMW 6 Series in Cape Town ahead of its imminent international launch function there. New 6 has a more elegant, less bloated look to it. Due here in March this year, our market gets two twin-scroll turbo options in the form of a 235kW six-cylinder 640i and a 300kW V8 650i. The yet-to-be-unveiled Coupe version should be here by September.

Stadium is booked for 5 Feb 2011, which I assume is Ajax vs. Supersport United as per Stadium Events Calendar.

Pitch to be replaced from 19 Feb to 1 March 2010.

yes it is.

Also, Kings of Leon Delay Tour Due to Nathan Followill's Injury- Moved to November

Apparently the last PSL match which took place only had an attendance of 10 000 but the atmosphere was still great, and attendance still higher then other matches at other venues, e.g. MMS.

Steers has a new ad about their ice cream, a part of it has been shot in the stadium.

Apparently they are ripping up the grass today to make space for "the claw" from U2.
