    As ‘22/‘23 had the dullest stage setup from them in years, even a tiny bit of imagination would go a long way. Doesn’t have to be much, but _something_ brightens things up a bit.
    Disagree. The 2023 stage setup was the best in a while IMO. Old school PJ. Better than a recycled piece of garbage hanging from the top or those giant hanging light bulbs. 
    They’re gonna have something for Dark Matter but I really hope it allows for seats behind the stage. They could have a screen that comes up to Matt’s head so it doesn’t block behind. 
    Those hanging lightbulbs were ridiculous/hilarious. 
    Jeff smashed a hole in one of I remember correctly at Worcester. His reaction was pretty funny. 
    It was so goofy watching the guys knock them around while jamming on Porch. 

    Even goofier when Eddie would try to climb up on one to swing around, but then couldn't manage it, and he'd flail around for a while trying to find a foot hold. :lol: All happening underneath a trash pile suspended from the ceiling. That stage was indeed absolutely ridiculous/hilarious!

    I hope they really think about the stage setup in Berlin also...

    Yea. It didn’t not quite hit the mark of climbing up microphone wires and hanging above the stage!
    you couldn't swing if you were hangin' from a palm tree in a hurricane

    They released a bunch of side stage seats for Sacramento that are labelled limited view.  Wonder if this suggests there’s something to the video thing.

    I always thought the light bulbs hanging over their heads meant they had ideas.

    Same. But my favourite movie is the crow so maybe that’s why? Either way I thought it was cool.

    I thought the nest thing above the stage was cool.  As far as the hanging lights, I was fine with or without them.

    Funny. I like when ev flew over my head. Last show of tour MM karate chopped one in half. I guess he didn't like them either. It had a cool effect watching them dodge them during porch jam. Yes, kind of silly.

    The U2 Vertigo 2005 tour called.  It wants its namesake inducing image back.

    Yeah, I'll be happy to see them, whatever they've decided on, but I'd rather it not be this.

    Maybe those limited view side seats will be for the better.

    I was agreeing with you, that I wouldn't want that backdrop!
    Oh, I get it, with limited side view, you wouldn't see it. Took me a second.
    (But limited view is never for the better, lol.)

    They could still sell seats behind the stage with that set up. Looks as high as the backspacer backsrop

    I’m thinking they will have pyro 🧨 with this tour - very dark and heavy feel to this album/tour
