This is going to be mindblowing. I think complaints over not being able to see the whole screen will cease when it becomes clear that your brain might not be able to fully process the entire thing at once.

U2:UV General Admission Policy
Starting at 8:00am on each show day, sequentially numbered wristbands will be issued on a first come, first served basis for priority entry. A GA ticket will need to be presented in order to obtain a wristband. The wristbands will be distributed at the main concierge located next to the Plaza Entry, which is on the east side of the building. After receiving a wristband, guests are asked to leave and return no earlier than 5:30pm. Please note, for opening weekend only – September 29-30 – guests with GA wristbands may return beginning at 5:00pm.
Overnight lines will not be permitted. Guests are not permitted to “hold” a place in line for other guests who are arriving later.
At 5:30pm (5:00pm on September 29-30), guests will present their sequentially numbered wristband at the East VIP Entry to enter, and have their tickets scanned. GA ticket holders will be admitted to the GA floor once doors open at 6:30pm (6:00pm on September 29-30). A numerical wristband is only required for priority entry. If you are a GA ticket holder and do not wish to participate in priority entry, you will get a standard GA wristband.
The wristband must remain on the guest’s wrist while in line. Any guest found with a tampered wristband will have their wristband confiscated and will lose their place in line.
Guests are permitted to have a reasonable amount of food and non-alcoholic beverages while in line. Soft-plastic, empty bottles are permitted.
Please be respectful of other guests – no running, pushing or line jumping; no alcohol, drugs or smoking; no glass or metal containers; no selling of tickets, wristbands, concessions or merchandise; no animals (except service animals).
All GA ticket holders must enter via the East VIP Entry. This is the only entrance you may access with a GA ticket.
All guests are required to abide by the following General Admission (“GA”) policy. Ticket holders found in violation of the following policy may be asked to surrender their tickets and leave Sphere property.

This seems fine? TBD if they’ll cut off the numbers at a certain point.
Mmmm, that’s the stuff. Offsite secret lines getting kicked out would be incredible.

they've updated some of the FAQs
i think there's a typo in there. the east side of the building is the side furthest away from the strip. the pedestrian bridge connects to the west side of the building.
thought maybe they'd make an exception considering it's vegas - but not overly surprising. most arenas are going this way. the reverse ATMs are pretty easy to use.
so yes, for the last time, you can bring in your cell phone.
confirming no haptics seats, which was mentioned by Dolan previously. also doesn't mention environmental effects, so bono's farts won't be blowing in your face.

Ugh, I’m glad I don’t have to deal with the GA shenanigans. Get there at 6:30 and just watch the place fill up.
Smart of them to (tentatively) schedule doors opening 30 minutes earlier on the first weekend. Gotta work out those kinks of fitting almost 20,000 people through one entrance.

I'll just be rocking up close to show time, cannot be bothered with any of that nonsense. I can only imagine what shenanigans will be getting organised just now by people who want to be on the rail for 12 nights straight.

Reverse atms? Perfect. At least I’ll have a way to launder my newly printed Benjamin’s. Been working feverishly on this last couple weeks. I can only do limited batches

We have them here - they're super easy to use.
Besides cashing your money in for chips at the casino is a much more efficient way to launder your funds.

Wouldn't you be laundering newly printed Robert Bordens?

I think the better question is whether or not the casinos will accept his Canadian moose dollars.
Oh, sure sweetheart. A loonie is valid currency. Sure thing.

Like the wristband GA thing. That's what they've done at the Garden in Boston for the last few tours.
Stroll over, get a band, grab some breakfast, proceed with the day.

He can get one pull on a quarter slot with a loonie, two with a twoonie.

I can’t even remember the last time I had a loonie - or a toonie - in my possession. Our world is cashless now pretty much.
Which led to a massive fail the other day at one of last remaining true coin only diy car washes.. had to slink on back to the gas station touchless [emoji23][emoji23]

Saw that Vibee VIPs have access to the "Zoo Cinema" or whatever schedule of movies they're doing at the pop up. Anyone have the full list?

Thanks, I checked U2songs earlier and they had nothing, guess I should have been more patient!
Maybe the surprise content is Sphere BTS stuff? Or perhaps just a rotating roster of other shows that aren’t a on the schedule.
Ultimately I think the idea is fun but don’t know if I’d pay money for any of these. Maybe $5 but $15? I’m sure the theater is not even that big.
