Tesla autopilot now has the opportunity to do the funniest thing of all time
The original Sphere, which cost about $2.3bn to construct, is home to the word’s highest-resolution LED screen and has seating capacity for up to 20,000 people. But the venue demands a significant investment from performers, who must create customised visual content tailored to the wraparound LED display, which cannot be used elsewhere. While this has been been feasible for its high-profile residencies such as U2, the Eagles, Dead & Company and Anyma, smaller venues could attract a broader range of artists who might not have the budget or demand to fill the flagship Las Vegas location. The possibility of 5,000-capacity mini-Spheres follows news that a full-scale venue will open in the UAE
Start walking down the stairs some evening for an uptown No. 1 train at 28th Street and Seventh Avenue, and be on the lookout for a small, hidden bar. […] Jey Perie, 41, who grew up in France and moved to New York in 2012 […] opened La Noxe, a 600-square-foot hidden bar in between the street and the uptown train. The bar holds 30 people and is reminiscent of a speakeasy, “because it’s so hard to find, which was never my intention” […] We have a DJ on the weekends so those are our busiest days. Then we can sell 150-200 drinks a night. […] How did this space become so well-known? In March of 2021, we had been closed for months because of Covid, and then told we could reopen, but only at 25 percent, which is like eight people, only to close again a few months later. When we were trying to figure out how we were going to survive, a random girl booked a reservation. She made a TikTok video showing her opening the door and walking out. She only had 400 or 500 followers, but her video got a million plus views. That got picked up on other social media. The M.T.A. president gave us an award. We became a New York comeback story. She brought the news, and Jimmy Fallon had us on his show. We went from 10 people DM-ing on Instagram a week to 1,000 people. We started taking reservations on Resy. Without that video, we would be closed. [NY Times]
