"The Dark Side of The Mun" Concert Extravaganza

[TinMissileMan]

Ever since a small, black disk floated into Kerbin's orbit, Kerbals all over the planet have been listening to "The Dark Side of The Mun" (Mun was misspelled as "moon" when found originally).

Kerbals wanted it live, but not on Kerbin. Concerts on Kerbin are boring and have gravity. Kerbal Engineers got right to work on the new "Munar Concert Stage" shown below.

The only problem was how this would make it. It was (thought at the time before launch) unbalanced. Here's the journey.

At the pad. I decided for a direct descent to the Mun to save fuel (if it does).

Liftoff! Much more stable than I thought it would be.

After separation of the SRBs, they hit the main lifter (oops).

After gravity turn.

Main lifter stage is gone!

Munar trajectory.

Silly game, I have an encounter...

Much better.

In orbit. I had wasted precious fuel about 30 seconds before orbital insertion due to the fact I had no idea my Navball was upside down. I was burning prograde instead of retrograde.

Low on fuel...hope I can pull this off.

Lol, floating strut connectors.

Almost out of fuel...Please last the less than 9000 meters to go!

You were supposed to separate booster!

Not good. The mission is over...

...and engine to the rescue!

It just rolled along for the next few pictures.

I attempt to flip it over by firing into the ground and skidding across the Munar surface.

Oh...

Well then...no more lights...

Almost got it...

And it's down! But not useful for the show...

Remainder of the lights on at night.

Stay tuned for the next variant of the Munar Concert Stage in the great attempt to old a concert on the Dark Side of the Mun...

That's pretty cool. Somehow the Disaster Area concert in The Restaurant at the End of the Universe springs to mind

[Tw1]

This is cool. That would be an expensive, (but awesome) concert.
