Not from a concert within the stadium, but from the actual wall. Then, you see that wall light up, and realize there are people in those bays, drumming on the beams like they’re instruments. A huge crowd is gathered under the night sky, looking up in amazement as images synced to the sounds are projected onto the Monster, bringing the legendary creature to life.
