David Gilmour Explores Avatar Shows and Solo Performances at the Las Vegas Sphere
David Gilmour, the iconic musician from Pink Floyd, has expressed interest in the idea of a Pink Floyd avatar show at the Las Vegas Sphere. The concept of watching himself in digital form is something that intrigues him. The Las Vegas Sphere, known for hosting massive concerts with renowned artists like U2 and the Eagles, has not yet featured avatar performances. However, with the rise of virtual concerts, bands like ABBA and Kiss are exploring this new era.
Given the longstanding differences between David Gilmour and Roger Waters and the band's last live performance in 2005, an avatar show could be a way to bring Pink Floyd's music and classic lineup to a live setting, albeit in a digital format. Gilmour mentioned during a Q&A session at the UK premiere of his Live At The Circus Maximus concert film that he is keen on the idea of watching his avatar perform at the Sphere, allowing him to experience the show without physically being on stage.
In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, Gilmour hinted at the possibility of doing a solo performance at the Las Vegas Sphere. While he admitted to not fully understanding how the venue operates, he expressed openness to the idea of exploring opportunities there. The Sphere, which boasts the largest LED screen in the world, opened in 2023 and is renowned for its cutting-edge technology that delivers immersive soundscapes through wave-field synthesis.
