Staged in the round, the eXPERIENCE + iNNOCENCE Tour is a development of the unique and innovative staging of 2015, featuring multiple performance areas, a state-of-the-art sound system, plus an all new super high-res LED screen nine-times the resolution of the 2015 screen.

Will it just be an 8k screen?
4k was still in it's relative infancy when I&E came around. 8k obviously is too, but it was an 8K screen on TJT 30.

I wonder if they have just chopped up sections of the JT30 screen and reworked it into the structure of the I&E screen.

Apparently the I&E screen was NOT water resistant. Obviously they played outside and in the rain, during TJT 30 so that would make sense if they've reworked the screen.

Pathetic ppl discussing what the screen will look like I'm going to hear U2 play the songs not watch TV.Sad state of affairs when ppl are preoccupied with the stage setup the focus should be on the performance of the band.Id much prefer to see U2 on a completely stripped down stage with no frills that's where they excel sadly since Zoo tv they have chosen to depend too much on technology which can distract too much from what's going on musically,Slane in 2001 was stripped down as much as possible in the modern stage shows and it worked amazingly well the band were on fire as were the crowd with minimal distractions.

Ummm. The band make more of the production than we do. And all we are discussing is what variation we are going to see compared to 2015 as the band have never toured the same production twice. Calm your tits Mr Purist.
We’d all love to see the band play on a flat bed truck but they aren’t that band. We can judge the performance when we see it.
