That sphere looks mental and they want to build one in London

They're a bit more down the road than that, given that plans are advancing through the development roster and could go ahead soon if the Mayor of London says yes after local area approval: London's MSG Sphere venue plans advance despite local objections (nme.com)

Feel like I'd rather have more smaller venues built given the rate they've been closing. Even if this one is planning to include a 1,500 venue as part of its plans.

Residency announcing

 

 

They must have found a new sticks player, given Larry Mullen Jr says he needs a few surgeries and will be sitting out planned 2023 tour shows.

As far as the sphere thing goes, I remember U2's Zoo TV tour in 1992/93 with a fuck-ton of screens as a satire of media overload, so quite funny that 30 years or so on, they're opening the literal overload arena.

No timetable given on larrys recovery so he is likely fine by the fall.

A brand new state-of-the-art performance arena in Las Vegas + Ticketmaster. Time to remortgage, everyone.

[moogster]

OK that's weird, the drummer is going to be someone who drums for a quite-known-but-not-groundbreaking Dutch pop rock band. How the hell did that happen...? (Front page Dutch news obvs).

Oh god fuck offff. They better at least get some decent, arena-sized genre music over on the Other stage against this. Give us Ghost or something.

Unsurprising given they had to drop out of 2022 but still great news

Live is pretty surprising i'd say given the very short gap and how we have about 5 other headliners

Prodigy / Chems / Fred are mental locks for me. QOTSA under AM or GNR. Huge parties on Other!

Would we really get prodigy and Chems ? I hope so but not sure I can see that hAppenning 

[nikkic]

Can’t see Chems back unless it’s a DJ set. 

They’ve literally released one song since their last set. 

(I know a new album is rumoured, but nothing has materialised thus far).

Yeah it’s surely gonna be the DJ set they cancelled last year. As you say, no real reason for them to be back so soon headlining Other - even next year feels a touch too soon, although is what I’m expecting.

Its very much coming, they were playing new songs all of last summer and they first dropped at dj sets over a year ago just haven't released anything yet.

not really sure what their plan is atm, this is their 3rd summer coming up touring before their album release in a row its just a bit strange.

They said re printworks last year that theres no more dj sets for a long time or something similar also
