It was the craziest concert experience I’ve ever had.
Obviously these shows are celebrating the anniversary of Achtung Baby so if you’re a fan of the album and excited to hear some of those back-half of album rarely played songs it’s a treat.
There is a middle section that they’re supposedly going to change frequently although the first/second nights they stayed the same.
Back-half of set iare the usual big songs for people who only know their hits. That was the only gripe I had with the setlist (aka I don’t ever need to hear Vertigo or Beautiful Day ever again).
I’m going back for a second round so excited to see it again.
If you sit in seats be mindful about not being under the overhang at the back of the 100 section or you won’t see the full screen. They note it on the Ticketmaster map
thanks - this clinched it for me - it wouldn't be a concert for me if I didn't hear Beautiful Day!
The 200 and 300 level seats in the center are fabulous.
It's the floor or nothing for me but the shots/videos from the seats that I have been inundated with look very cool. Down there the drones the Sphere have flying around almost took off my head a few times

In NoVa:
Collective
Leg Warmers
White Ford Bronco
Watch the Tarara Summer Concert series as summer approaches (or find last summer's listing). ALL the cover bands you could want and more play there -and across different genres.

Was supposed to see Aerosmith's farewell tour but looks like that's not happening now. Rescheduled for '24, if that even happens. I cannot imagine a "broken larynx" at his age is a good thing.
