A stunning feat of architectural ambition four years in the making,, Las Vegas' record-shatteringly expensive new entertainment The Sphere The Sphere finally opened fall of 2023 aiming to revolutionize sensory possibilities blending digital immersion with live performance. The bulbous structure's unprecedented wrap-around interior video capabilities, cutting-edge spatial audio, and full spectrum physical effects purport to transport audiences into radically enhanced multi-dimensional environments no concert stage achieved before for $2.3 billion price making this spherical colossus the most expensive entertainment venue ever erected in Sin City.
Brought forth through a partnership between regional entertainment titans Madison Square Garden Company (or MSG) and former Las Vegas Sands backing, the aptly titled The Sphere complex measures a whopping 366 feet tall and 516 feet wide covered by 580,000 square feet of programmable LED panels coating its imposing exterior like the scale of mythological dragon. Within its high-tech skin lies seating for over 18,000 optimally positioned experiencing shows never possible previously.
Specifically, The Sphere's interior showcases spectacular 16 thousand-resolution wraparound screens engulfing attendees in what feels akin a live IMAX theater through triple limitations of conventional concert footage. Over 1,600 individual sonic emitters leverage advanced wave synthesis and beam-forming precision to bounce layered sounds everywhere imaginable even vibrating through floorboards. Then myriad 4D elements like perfumed scents, temperature shifts and tactile rumbles complement enormous displays dynamically responding performing artists move through custom choreography.
Altogether The Sphere’s sprawling production toolbox fosters unlimited possibilities storytellers dream up leveraging digital sleight of hand synchronizing CGI elements live performers interact. The creative combinations remain infinite if content creators fully harness The Sphere's capabilities by choreographing entirely new species showmanship. Already MSG announced runway style awards programming, long-form documentary debuts and fittingly U2 themselves christened the state-of-art stage across 40 dates with touring residency leveraging limitless possibility welcoming this uncharted new frontier for event entertainment. One expects many visionary artists to follow conceptualizing groundbreaking world-building hitherto impossible come to vivid life nightly when properly utilizing The Sphere’s futuristic production palette.
Now after years of tangled delays navigating supply chain logjams and runaway materials inflation blowing initial costs skyward, the $2 billion plus pricey spherical spectacle finally opened September 2023 shepherded by MSG subsidiary The Sphere Entertainment towards realizing profitability. Unfortunately, wider macro-economic woes hampering consumer discretionary spending coupled with operational costs tuning The Sphere’s bleeding edge systems produce projected near $100 million losses initially gave shareholders pause whether the ambitious gamble pays dividends long-term. With exorbitantly expensive overhead and consistent six-figure crowd draws essential to reaching even modest future profit break-even thresholds, the financial viability quest already claimed MSG CFO exiting weeks after doors opened.
The entertainment industry gazes upon The Sphere half with optimism about immersive potential but also weighted uncertainty about whether risky business execution amidst the recessionary climate jeopardizes MSG’s spherical Icarus melting wings flying too close creative sun. Beyond budgets, critical voices argue The Sphere’s lavish one percenter amenities contradict populist entertainment better served through dozens of grassroots venues reaching wider audiences. Could vanity alone collapse this awe-inspiring architectural marvel many critics charge resembles a gaudy billionaire’s Epcot bauble more than proving practical public good?
Time will tell whether The Sphere’s promise to usher live entertainment into expansive multi-dimensional realms through cutting-edge production or merely fleeting gimmickry dazzling initial crowds soon after fading forgetting faster than other Vegas spectacle ghosts. But give credit to MSG and partners' courage to dream so ambitiously by spending big believing interactive digital innovation must push boundaries reaching post-pandemic audiences evaluating theatrical experiences on radically shifting terms favoring heightened stimulation. Only broad sustained turnout and profitability measures if their shrewd bet pays forward dividends opening new frontier contemporary arena entertainment through consistently scaling creative possibilities matching billion-dollar plus investment built.

Forrest Richard "Dickey" Betts, the legendary guitarist, songwriter, and founding member of the Allman Brothers Band, passed away on Thursday, August 24, 2023, in Osprey, Florida, at the age of 80. Betts' innovative guitar work and country-influenced songwriting played a crucial role in shaping the Southern rock genre during the 1960s and 1970s.
Born on December 12, 1943, in West Palm Beach, Florida, Betts grew up in a musical family. His father, Forrest Betts, was a carpenter and a talented mandolin player, while his mother, Hattie, played the piano. Exposed to music from a young age, Betts quickly developed a passion for the guitar and began honing his skills as a teenager.
In the early 1960s, Betts formed a band called the Second Coming with bassist Berry Oakley. The group gained a strong local following and eventually caught the attention of Duane Allman, a talented slide guitarist. In 1969, Betts, Allman, Oakley, and Duane's brother, Gregg Allman, along with drummers Butch Trucks and Jai Johanny "Jaimoe" Johanson, formed the Allman Brothers Band.
The Allman Brothers Band quickly established themselves as one of the most influential and innovative acts in the burgeoning Southern rock scene. Betts and Duane Allman's dual lead guitar work became the band's signature sound, with their intricate, improvisational interplay setting a new standard for rock guitar. Betts' country-inflected songwriting, which drew from his love of artists like Bob Wills and Merle Haggard, added a distinctive flavor to the band's blues-based rock.
Betts wrote and sang lead on several of the Allman Brothers Band's most iconic songs, including "Revival," "Blue Sky," and the instrumental tour de force "In Memory of Elizabeth Reed." His songwriting contributions helped to define the band's sound and earned them a dedicated following.
Tragedy struck the Allman Brothers Band in 1971 when Duane Allman died in a motorcycle accident. The loss of his guitar partner and friend deeply affected Betts, but he stepped up to fill the void left by Duane's absence. Betts' guitar work became even more prominent in the band's sound, and he continued to write and sing lead on many of their most popular songs.
In 1972, the Allman Brothers Band released their double live album "Eat a Peach," which featured Betts' extended guitar solo on the epic "Les Brers in A Minor." The album was a commercial and critical success, cementing the band's status as one of the most important acts in rock music.
Throughout the 1970s, the Allman Brothers Band continued to record and tour extensively, with Betts serving as a key creative force. He wrote and sang lead on hits like "Ramblin' Man" and "Jessica," the latter of which showcased his virtuosic guitar work and earned the band a Grammy Award in 1996.
Despite the band's success, internal tensions and personal struggles led to the Allman Brothers Band's breakup in 1976. Betts formed his own group, Great Southern, and released several solo albums throughout the late '70s and early '80s.
In 1989, the Allman Brothers Band reunited and embarked on a successful comeback tour. Betts remained a vital part of the group, contributing his signature guitar work and songwriting to albums like "Seven Turns" (1990) and "Where It All Begins" (1994). The band's live performances during this era were celebrated for their improvisational prowess and the chemistry between Betts and fellow guitarist Warren Haynes.
Betts' personal life was marked by struggles with alcohol and substance abuse, which sometimes led to tensions within the band. In 2000, he was fired from the Allman Brothers Band due to his erratic behavior and declining musical contributions. The split was acrimonious, and Betts later sued the band for wrongful termination.
In the years following his departure from the Allman Brothers Band, Betts continued to perform and record with his own group, Dickey Betts & Great Southern. He also made occasional guest appearances with other artists and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of the Allman Brothers Band in 1995.
Betts' influence on rock guitar cannot be overstated. His fluid, melodic style and seamless integration of country, blues, and jazz elements inspired countless guitarists and helped to define the sound of Southern rock. His songwriting, which often celebrated the beauty and romance of the American South, added a poetic depth to the Allman Brothers Band's music and earned him a place among the great American songwriters.
Dickey Betts' passing marks the end of an era for the Allman Brothers Band and Southern rock music. His contributions to the genre, both as a guitarist and a songwriter, will forever be remembered as some of the most significant and influential in the history of rock music. Betts' legacy will live on through the countless musicians he inspired and the timeless music he created with the Allman Brothers Band. Thanks for listening to Quiet Please.
