First glimpse of rehearsal from inside the sphere

It’s definitely not Larry on the drums. You can hear the difference in both sound and playing.

I mean it’s not bad but not what I expect from a U2 show.
A dangerous idea that almost makes sense...

I agree.

The drums sound like he’s hitting nails into a piece of wood.

The stage is tiny. I can’t imagine most people will be watching the band performance. They’ll just stare at the screen.

The music sounds good. Bono sounds tired

Bono is surely saving his voice for the shows.

It almost sounds like pre programmed drum machine AND Bass playing there. sounds robotic. Not sure i see Adam or Bram or anyone on stage really
Anyone else spot the Trabant?
In the garden I was playing the tart
I kissed your lips and broke your heart

You were acting like it was the end of the world

I zoomed in on the clip. The band are not on stage. Looks like a few roadies standing around curtains or what not, hanging from above

Almost. But it doesn’t make much sense for the band to rehearse without Bram so close to the show premiere.

I think everyone will now get how much flow Larry truly has… by hearing the difference when he’s not there.

I think the sound is legit. They probably edited it with a view of the venue.

It could not look or sound more uninspired.

I couldn’t access the first clip, but this clip gave me a sore head after viewing.

Although, after saying that, weren’t the  graphics of the original tour meant to do just that; swamp and overload the brain with random images?

Maybe it’s intentional.

That is the studio version of The Fly playing with Bono singing over it.
Listen as Hope and Peace try to rhyme,
Listen over marching bands playing out their time.
