@U2 had to perform WHERE THE STREETS HAVE NO NAME! That guitar riff is so iconic! As soon as we heard it… ! This felt like a once-in-a-lifetime experience at @spherevegas!
We thought the ginormous screen at @spherevegas would give us VERTIGO, but it didn’t! @u2 did!!!
Lights! Camera! Bono!!! Taking us to a higher ELEVATION at @U2’s new residency at the @spherevegas!
I felt so much DESIRE and happiness at @U2’s new residency at @spherevegas!
We need to go see @u2 at @spherevegas ONE more time!!!
@U2 is the first act to perform at the just-opened @SphereVegas. Is their new residency worth seeing?
What a star! What a show!! @u2 @spherevegas
The opening night of the new Sphere Las Vegas event space was a star-studded affair!
We can’t wait to go back to @SphereVegas and take the kids to watch Darren Aronofsky’s new movie, Postcard From Earth, made JUST for this venue on specialty cameras that capture 270 degrees! That will be a totally different experience!
It looked like a typical U2 outdoor concert: Two helicopters zoomed through the starlit sky before producing spotlights over a Las Vegas desert and frontman Bono, who kneeled to the ground while singing the band’s 2004 hit “Vertigo”.
Sphere, the innovative new concert venue in Las Vegas, opened on Friday night (September 29) with a performance from U2 and we have incredible photos and videos from inside the dome.
The Sphere didn’t fall flat on opening night. The Las Vegas venue debuted Friday night with U2 as its resident artist, and drew foaming at the mouth raves from reviewers.
beloved Irish rock band officially christened Sphere — a 20,000 capacity, $2.2 billion state-of-the-art venue from the Madison Square Garden Company — Friday night in Las Vegas. For months now, it has snatched the world’s attention for its massive exterior that doubles as a video screen which quickly become a staple on the Sin City strip.The term immersive doesn’t give this production its due justice.
U2 kicked off their Las Vegas residency at the new MSG Sphere venue last night (September 29) – see clips from the show and the full setlist below.The Irish rock band’s residency is centred on a full play-through of their seventh album, ‘Achtung Baby’ (1991) but, as confirmed by reports, the setlist will be broken up by a secret segment focusing on a different U2 album.Variety reports that singer Bono revealed to the crowd the they plan to focus on a different album (or possibly other people’s albums, he added, teasingly), however, he didn’t clarify whether that would mean a setlist switch-up on each of the residency’s 25 shows.Last night U2 played the first eight songs of ‘Achtung Baby’ before breaking into a four-song secret segment of their a hybrid live/studio album ‘Rattle And Hum’.The band’s debut residency gig, which opened on the same day that they released their first new song in two years, ‘Atomic City’, was attended by a host of famous faces including Paul McCartney and Snoop Dogg. NME writer Damian Jones also confirmed that Dr Dre and Flavor Flav were at the concert.Ahead of performing ‘Angel Of Harlem’ from ‘Rattle And Hum’, Bono said: “The macca [McCartney] is in our prescience.
