This is purely speculation, but does anyone imagine we'll be seeing graphics from the HTDAAB special edition book during the show?
On the ZooTV and POPMart tours the band borrowed images from some well known and lesser known artists to support the "themes" of the overall visual presentations. While the band has said this tour will be "bigger" than the last one, it would make sense that they would want it to remain grounded and personal. What better way to accomplish these two things than using the art they themselves created?
It would be nice to see the giant handprints of the band members up on the screen. You could do some nice backgrounds with Larry's paintings. And Bono's artwork, while primitive, is very striking and could serve to illustrate some of the more personal songs. In addition, the "data" that The Edge collected would be of great use during the political songs, like showing the missile/bomb schematic stuff or the list of phobias during Bullet or Love & Peace or Else. Adam's photographs would bring the audience into the "world" of the band, and could theoretically go with anything.
Does anyone else think this is a possibility?
