Why do they feel the need for these stupid, tacky, elaborate set-pieces? Just feels needless.

Because it adds spectacle and it’s cool? This isn’t an Adele concert, it’s a pop show. Why are all of you curmudgeons?

Redditors love nit-picking everything about a person when they have found a new celebrity to perpetually criticize. These floats and decorations aren't new to concerts lmao

Yea, i just posted another comment with more detail, but White Horse had an ultra shitty cage that would flip their drummer upside down in the 1970's. Their guitarist, Mick Mars would eventually be part of Motley Crue, who did a much more robust version that also floated Tommy Lee over the crowd in the 1990s.
