last few near strikes never came to fruition... my guess is this won't either. but the freaking out on the faceplam page should be fun!

So you can still gamble but can't get a clean room or food if they strike. Bring your sleeping bag!

the resorts would be crazy to let this happen leading into a fall/winter season that includes Sphere opening, the F1 race and concludes with the Super Bowl.
and the union knows this. they'll get it done.

apparently the september date is just the day to authorize a strike - then the union would have to give notice on a date.
i'm going to go out on a limb and say that the union picks a day right before the F1 races get started as their strike date...

U2songs just posted a rehearsal spoiler article - with no actual spoilers.

I appreciate their commitment to not spoiling... nothing
Their last 2 arena tours had excellent sound, thanks to a virtually identical build. But I can’t see them going back indoors when the general public of casual fans will be 6+ years removed from the last U2 tour.
Major market demand should support stadiums. And sound there usually sucks.

The Sphere is a one off sort of venue though - given the scale and technology, it sounds like anyone playing there will have to put on a very specific staging of their show to make it work. They can't just pitch up mid-tour and make the most of the venue (or maybe they can, who knows).
For a band like U2, their audio and visual live rigs are the best of the best, so I don't think it will make any difference to them. I'm really intrigued to see just how the sphere looks and sounds to be honest as nobody knows just now. Until every major city has one, I suspect it will be a "one off" experience for artists every once in a while?

Hope everyone saves enough time to get through the single door into this place
I'm doing laps right now hoping I'll lose enough to fit sideways through the door.

I'm seeing a few posts with other bands about tickets downloaded to someone's apple wallet being rejected because the name doesn't match the Ticketmaster account.
Not enough to confirm they definitely put a fix in, but if they did, woo boy there's gonna be some drama with a few people lol

I’m sure this is just journalistic ignorance, but did anyone else see the NME article has triggered a few other articles suggesting Larry is only missing some of the Vegas shows?

Yea that was such a horribly written click bait piece
He'll be there. In the audience. To glare at them all night.

It was such a lazy, weird article which recycled comments from other articles and then came up with a headline based on something that wasn't even said in their own article.
OP
OP
Seems like the dumb posts aren't only reserved for the U2 group...
It ain’t the band, but the screen is getting some testing in for the *other* Sphere show currently on sale…
Is this considered a SPOILER?
Well, don’t click it then.
As for the curious…
