Friday night's performance of 'U2:UV Achtung Baby Live At Sphere' marked the debut of the $2.3 billion bleeding-edge entertainment venue.
Before an audience of an estimated 18,000, Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton and Bram van den Berg used these capabilities to debut their new residency,, an experience that includes all of the tracks from the Irish band’s 1991 album, such as “One” and “Mysterious Ways,” as well as classic hits such as “Where the Streets Have No Name” and “With or Without You.” U2 also used the occasion to debut its new song, “Atomic City.
“I think the medium fits the concept,” he adds of the segment, which also creates a sense of movement in the venue as the image scrolls down Sphere .“Even Better Than the Real Thing” was followed by “Mysterious Ways” before shifting the pace effectively for Bono’s moving rendition of “One.” Late in the show, there’s a striking segment created by Lucasfilm-owned VFX house Industrial Light & Magic that uses the LED display to create a view of Las Vegas from the point of view of an audience member standing in the Sphere but as if the walls had disappeared, making visible the famous skyline.
