Summary
The Clock Beach concert, beginning at 9:00 p.m., a few minutes after sunset, has been sold out for several months, and the presence of 25,000 people is expected, according to the organization, in the one that is considered the largest urban sand in Europe. Before, in August 2006, there are records of another concert on the beach, a private show, in the garden of a villa, but it ended up open to hundreds of people who watched on the sand and on boats in Narragansett, Rhode Island, on the East Coast.
