Will the globe lights and metal bird be back for 2016?

OceansMagnet · February 2016

Not that the staging matters too much because we're all there for the music but I can't help but wonder… What do you think? Will they have a new lighting/stage setup or will we see the guys playing dodgeball with those swinging balls again this time out? Personally, I found it to be a little gimmicky. It was all in good fun but most of us have seen it more than a couple of times.. Thoughts? Go!!

Globe lights...yes.

Metal bird...50/50.

I used to love the rugs on the floor and the candles up the back circa mid 90s.?? For what it's worth the globes and bird are good imho. Leave them.

I want to see that '98 stage back again

I miss the simplicity of the rugs and candles, but honestly, they can put ice sculptures and watersides on the stage as long as they keep rocking.

I vote for the rugs and candles again!

Once back then, I think it was the 96 tour, I saw a roadie with a bunch of incense burning before they came out...looked like he was blessing the stage or something?

Hopefully it's something new, but I'm not going to be heartbroken if they bring out the globe lights again.

New stage set-up.

I hate that stupid bird. I was back stage at Wrigley the first time and saw they bought it from some crappy sludge nu-metal band. I forget who, but the tape was still on the crates.

Art is subjective. Somebody created that and was proud of it.
It does obstruct the view for people in the upper sides and behind the stage though, so I guess it has that as a drawback.

I've always liked the sparse stage setups from the 1990s and earlier in the 2000s. When I first saw photos of the swinging "globe" lights and the more elaborate (by PJ's standards) setup of the last few years, I thought it was gimmicky. That said, I've never seen the latest stage design live. And I don't even know what the metal bird is.

Nothing fancy for me. A rug and a nice collection of Starting Lineups is fine.

the backdrop for GCF was pretty cool, but i am good with whatever they want to do.
do miss those candles and the Frog wings on Eddies amp, tho.
