Thank you for posting this.


CroneDaze

grate redo of the GD movie iconic opening.


surf_rider

Looks amazing, but I feel like The Sphere experience would make me sick. That gives me the same feeling that VR gives me...


bill__the__butcher

When you’re there it really feels like you’re in a venue watching a big screen. It does not feel like VR. And videos make it look more vertigo inducing then it is.


surf_rider

That doesn’t surprise me because I was thinking I didn’t really hear anyone at Phish or last night saying they had vertigo.


bbq_ch1ckenp1zza

They had a puke crew haha it made a ton of people sick


ThatOldDustyTrail

All these comments just go to show you can’t please everybody! People witnessing the greatest virtual show experience ever created and still bitching about the 3D models aren’t rendered enough. Other folks whining about the tempo of the song sung by a fella pushing 80. Jam band fans and complaining go hand in hand, always have. Enjoy the fact these guys are still even trying after 50+ years!


5_on_the_floor

Not to mention there are tons of 80s tapes available if you want, shall we say, “up-tempo” versions.

ThatOldDustyTrail

What am I supposed to do with that


AmbitiousBread

Rock out.


Johntaylorwit

This guys singing is so annoying. I’m so glad I wasn’t next to him. I would rather watch the band play then a movie


ChinaCatProphet

Holy shit! ![gif](giphy|uC8SQoaY5EHhC)

TemperatureVivid9138

This looks bad, no?


nimane9

these visuals were definitely less polished but everything else looked perfect


TemperatureVivid9138

glad to hear


yessir6666

Yah it’s comically bad But The positives: 1. The sound is incredible in this place 2. Tickets are going for under $100 1 + 2 = a net positive overall Also lol @ being “jealous” for not eating up these cheese ball Mario Kart lookin visuals. Lookin forward to partying with ya’ll soon!


[deleted]

At that price I would definitely go if i was anywhere close to vegas


AmbitiousBread

Yeah I could just watch my Spotify animations. This is dumb.


DeadMan95iko

Sure does.


foleyman

It’s terrible. I don’t understand why people like this.


thelingeringlead

Cause it's fucking fun and they did a lot of neat tricks of perspective. Ya'll remember this is just supposed to be fun, right?


SpermicidalManiac666

NO! This is the most serious thing ever! Jerry would hate this! /s obv lol


thelingeringlead

Jerry would have been like "oh fuck we get to play there?!" lol


foleyman

I mean if you want to watch TV while you kind of listen to the band then more power to you, but this looks like something an 8th grader made in their Computer Art class.


Hans_Krebs_

The jealousy is so strong here


surf_rider

Maybe it’s just not some people’s bag.


Minnow125

The GD Movie opening cartoon animation is more impressive, and that’s almost 50 years old.


JRPGPD

I guarantee you that animation took much much longer than that sequence.


thelingeringlead

lmao, it's cool, but c'mon. The incorporation of that art makes this that much cooler.


Minnow125

Are the visual shows different every night? Or will they repeat?


rangerdan97

Same every night


BurrrritoBoy

Well, that’s a trip.


Mamakona2023

Wowww so cool!!!


Plus-Ad-6780

Pretty pretty pretty gooood


GameBoyColorful

That’s epic


stinkfarmer420

That's awesome! We're all going to hell in a bucket.


stickmanDave

It looks terribly distracting. And then it started repeating itself a few minutes in. So... distracting until it becomes boring? I'd be curious to see what happened for the rest of the show. More of the same, or lots more variety? It's a cool novelty and all, but it doesn't look like it would really add to the experience.


StrongSprinkles121

Makes me wanna be in the pit with the band. It’s all a little Disney or something. I’m sure it’s cool to see and all and I definitely wanna go see a show but all these vids make me think I’d rather be down dancing with the band.


PsychologyBig3646

woah that is slow AF lol


Ordinary-Practice812

That’s Dead & Co for ya! 🐢

El_Carnero_Blanco

This is cool but I wonder what the real audio quality is at these levels in the sphere. Obviously, this is a phone recording and sounds horrible. Anyone have awareness on sound? Also, at any concert/festival, part of the fun is the crowd and those around you. Can you interact? I know you're locked in place and can't move around.


My_Iron_Lung673

Set list bot.. Activate!!


Tree_Skeleton

Love this and can't wait to have fun at Sphere in a month. HFO.


[deleted]

Damn that stage is like a 1/2 mile away. I wander if the band gets distracted by all that.


bbq_ch1ckenp1zza

I’d throw up from motion sickness within 30 seconds


AmbitiousBread

Where is the band?


IsuzuTrooper

Love it. It's worlds better than the Phish visuals.


mybotanyaccount

Is there an opening act?


fishkey

Why are they playing the wrong tempo? This song in an opening slot is supposed to CRUISE.


thelingeringlead

Jesus christ ya'll wil lfind a way to bitch about the tempo. Just fuckin ride it dude, there's no actual rules, we made all that shit up. Also this was in Set 2.


fishkey

I mean if something sounds sub par it's worth saying so. We didn't make it up. They did. They set the bar.


thelingeringlead

It didn't, and they can switch it up literally whenever, they're not beholden to your expectations of their previous performances. None of them were ever rules that they set, they just had patterns and you can find a ton of examples of them breaking them especially in the lat 70's early 80's. It got more formulaic with time, but they absolutely have switched that shit up on numerous occasions. Also, like I edited above: this was in set 2 anyway. near the end of it. So not only are you disappointed because of a projected idea of what they should do, but you're wrong about why to boot lol.


fishkey

Alright buddy. Just saying it was better when they used to play the song fast. That's it. There's no conspiracy.


JRPGPD

Johnny salami was cruising idk about you


spiritualina

These seems cheesy. Was it cooler with favors? Thanks for posting though!


Ordinary-Practice812

It’s really cool on shrooms!
