Was also center at 400 level. Great point re the acoustics. It was truly a remarkable performance in every way.

And the CFO probably quit because thats what happens to everyone that has to work for James Dolan (Knicks and MSG owner)
Not familiar with the guy but when I read that he quit after get screamed at, I immediately thought "He quit because his boss was a [jerk] not for any financial reason." I used to have a boss that liked to yell and scream so I can relate.
Also, thats a man with FU money right there.

Our seats are in 300s. Can't wait!

As jaw-dropping as the visuals were, we were gob-smacked by the acoustics. We were in the 400 level and could hear them chatting on stage away from the mic.
Did they wish Johnny Drama a happy birthday?

Sorry ... lame "Entourage" joke.

You're just going to wait until DMB is playing there so you can see them for the 50th time.

The band seemed to genuinely have fun and mentioned they were still trying out some of the visuals as they said "not sure that one really works".

The set list of Achtung Baby with a few other hits was a dream come true for this U2 fan. Wild horses was a highlight for me.

We were in the center of the 400 level and the seats were great. We may go in the spring and I'd aim for lower rows in 300s center next time.


Not to worry, Joan Wilder!

My little Pepe is fire proof!

If DMB plays the Sphere, I'm there for sure. But there are plenty of other bands I would definitely like to see in that venue, including U2!

Boston is going on tour in 2024. The are amazing in concert and would be a "must see" event if they scheduled this venue.

Woof. Saw them at Red Rocks with the Doobie Brothers. Worst performance I've ever seen.

Doobie Brothers were ok and Red Rocks was awesome though!

It's not a "one-off" venue, it would have to be a residency situation.

If he can even just stand upright, put Roger Waters in that thing and watch greatness happen.

Not sure if I'd call four nights a "residency". More like - four concerts.

But I bet it will be great. I hope more bands do this!

Any Phish fan has a Sphere-like experience at every Phish concert, for whatever an LSD tab or mushroom baggie costs.

I would NOT advise it should they have seats in the 400 section. Could see some pretty crazy stuff should someone high as a kite be seated in Section 400. I would not want to be the insurer to insure that concert.

Heard Phish and Coldplay may be next.

Looks like quite the experience
Could definitely see this happening with Shapiro being involved and I'm sure they could get as creative with the thing as anybody out there, although my brain can't process what that would like with Kuroda in the mix.

I'd say the most visually stimulating bands/artists I have seen over the years are Tool, Roger Waters, and Depeche Mode. Give me any one of those and I'm all over it.

Rogwr Waters with animation from The Wall would be pretty mindblowing.
