Each of the band members was stationed in their own as well; the idea was meant to keep both the attendees and band members safe as well as make the show all the more memorable.
In addition to the bubbles, the concerts featured confetti, multiple strobe lights and a visual display that appeared on a screen above the stage for the duration of the show.
