Stage Set-Up
The stage setup for this tour was somewhat basic. An onstage lighting detail was provided by very tall columns with a single spotlight atop each one. There was also a large black rubber backdrop and gauzy fabric hung all around the overall stage structure. There was a three piece scrim at the front of the stage that would be pulled away during the first song.
