Go YT Las Vegas Sphere and you'll see a few short TV segments... they talked about how many (THOUSANDS) speakers were installed. Some chairs even have haptic feedback (not that specifically pertains to audio).

I bet the audio is as good as the visuals.

Beck had a surprisingly visual set and might be good there. Second the Flaming Lips for bands still touring. Let's face it, it will continue to be popular trash like U2 in the future. It's $300 a seat but look at all the pretty lights!

Any band that has a concept album which could be played in full with awesome accompanying video to music


I would like to see a couple of Mastodon albums done this way. But they've never been super creative with their shows in the ones I've seen.

Would be interesting to see a Trans-Siberian Orchestra show there.

My first thought (after recently seeing a Pink Floyd tribute band who uses the old video projected on the round screen) was that they would kill it in a place like that. It would melt some peoples brains.

Then maybe The Killers
they are from Vegas and would still pull out of state fans


The Killers are also one of those bands that play a lot of different covers....So you could see multiple shows and it could never be stale or the same thing.

That joint is going to break some brains if they allow Tool and/or any jam band.

I am watching Dream Theater live videos right now.

They would jam and it would be awesome.
