I can see a sphere working in cities like Las Vegas or Dubai, but not a city like London. It would intergrade well in newer cities, though in historic cities like London or Paris would ruin the aesthetic that people pay for or appreciate the preservation of heritage.

I've had the pleasure of seeing this thing in person. When I booked my suite in the Venetian, I had NO idea I'd have a "Sphere view." I was being cheap, and not paying for a strip view. Wow, was that the right choice! My friends and I, ready for an adult weekend in Vegas, sat in our dark room, sipping drinks, and staring at the sphere. It was difficult to accept the thing is real. All of the strip was waiting for us. We had travelled very far to get there, and still we sat in our room and watched this thing for an hour. Outside, seeing it on the Horizon, feels like a science fiction movie. It's really, really trippy. Next time I hope to get inside!

I just read that the company is $100 million in the hole for 2023, but then with a price tag of $2.3 billion that's understandable. It might take awhile to make into a viable venue. As far as musical acts go, I can only think of a handful of bands which have music that's good enough for such a place, but I'm sure that won't stop Taylor Swift from playing there anyway.

I work at a hotel in Las Vegas and we can see the sphere from our lobby. It changes displays about every 15-20 minutes and the Emoji is when it wakes up in the morning at sunrise. From our view in the lobby, it looks like a massive sun is rising in the city. I haven't been inside yet, but I walked by it during the F-1 race and it was EXTREMELY large. Like, you need to be 3 blocks away or it's just too big to see.

I was in Vegas the week it opened and its very surreal to see. From far away you can see it and in one sense it seems small because its far away. Then you realize how clearly you can see this huge eye from that far away. It instantly clicks how big it actually must be. Needless to say I drove right up to it just to take it all in and it was crazy to see up close or in my rearview mirror. The emoji kept looking up at the sky. I can only imagine tourists flying into the airport looking out seeing this huge face staring up at them. Really cool.

I've been following the construction of this thing since the beginning. They were WAY over budget by the time they were done, but it has been nothing but a remarkable success. (Though I hate that creepy eyeball.) One little factoid you missed was that they even have a "quiet room" that's insulated from that incredible sound system for people that get overwhelmed by the experience. Also, the giant emoji face will occasionally troll the golfers at the Wynn golf course by reacting to their drives off the back tees. Quite funny.

My wife and I saw U2 at the Sphere, and it was incredible. If you like U2, i recommend seeing them there. If you don't like U2, if an artist you do like ends up doing a residency, go see them. It is one of the best concert exleriences I have ever had. A bit of advise, though. Do not get seats in the 200s section. The 300s and 400s overhang that section, meaning you can't see the whole dome. We were in the 300s and I honestly think that was the best possible section.

I have long said that Las Vegas is a massive pile of money in the Nevada desert. Apparently, they have piled $2.3 Billion more out there.

Saw a clip of U2 playing there. They looked like they were just providing a live soundtrack to the visuals on the screen.

Their claim that the outer screen ‘wouldn’t be obtrusive’ as a way to get around the planning rules in London didn’t survive the promo from Las Vegas.

They would've had to agree on basically no/v.few outer screen displays and that would take away so much marketing income and engagement that it wouldn't be viable.

Vegas resident as well. I actually attended opening night of U2/The Sphere… my wife is a huge U2 fan and was able to get the tickets. The venue is almost overwhelming. Very steep seating. The visuals are unreal and the acoustics are perfect. I personally can’t stand U2, and just went because my wife couldn’t find any one else to go, but I’m glad I did because of the venue and the historical significance of the night…

My parents saw U2 there for there anniversary and said it was a once in a lifetime experience. Not just because of the artist, whom they love, but the technical marvel of the sphere itself. It is certainly one of the modern wonders of the world right now. It'd be cool if Disney partnered with them to bring one to one of their parks, especially with Disney's special Fx department I bet they could do some amazing things with it.

Was front row at the first U2 concert. It’s the closest I’ve been to a sci-fi movie. It was amazing and surreal.
