U2 @ The Sphere, Las Vegas
“WE are the luckiest men on Earth,” said Bono, before the curtain came down on the opening night of their U2:UV Achtung Baby residency in Las Vegas.
But without a doubt it is us, the 18,000 fans in the crowd, who hit the jackpot after the band transported us into their fantastical new home at The Sphere.
The gargantuan concert venue, built smack bang in the middle of Sin City, is quite frankly enormous and came with an equally huge £1.8billion price tag.
At 516ft wide and 366ft tall, it is the tallest spherical structure in the world and the LED screen is the largest, comprising 268,435,456 video pixels.
