Title: The Sphere- new concert venue in Vegas Post by: Black Diamond Vol on October 01, 2023, 10:57:30 EDT just opened this weekend with U2. Check out this video. Pretty incredible. After seeing a show here, I don?t know if I could see one anywhere else. :wow:

Title: Re: The Sphere- new concert venue in Vegas Post by: BanditVol on October 02, 2023, 07:31:08 EDT I heard about that from one of the friends I went to the game with Saturday. I got the impression it had been there a while, but now I understand it's brand new.
I will likely try to go at some point, so long as it's not the cost of 3 house payments. :biggrin: Title: Re: The Sphere- new concert venue in Vegas Post by: Black Diamond Vol on October 02, 2023, 08:01:20 EDT I heard about that from one of the friends I went to the game with Saturday.

It was standing there unfinished when I went to LV in 2021. Title: Re: The Sphere- new concert venue in Vegas Post by: Black Diamond Vol on October 02, 2023, 08:29:10 EDT I just checked Ticketmaster. They?re only selling the tickets with two night hotel packages (at the Venetian), and those start at $1065 per person. Which honestly, isn?t as bad as I expected. Still more than I?m willing to spend though, especially since Bono has clearly lost about 15 mph off his fastball. :frown:

It was standing there unfinished when I went to LV in 2021. I saw it like that as well.

Now show me KISS. :naughty: Title: Re: The Sphere- new concert venue in Vegas Post by: BanditVol on October 03, 2023, 10:17:47 EDT I saw them in Atlanta in 1991 during the Zooropa tour...that was their last great album, coming at a time when everyone thought they were finished. That had to wait till the next album :laugh:
It was a great concert, one of the best I have been to. I did have to listen to some of the people standing nearby say they were their for the opening act (The Pixies) and not U2. I still haven't stopped laughing at that one. :dance: |
