Concept

For the first time in many years, Pet Shop Boys have a full band playing with them onstage (mostly consisting of keyboardists, vocalists and percussionists).

Critical reception

Joe Lynch from Billboard described the New York City concert as "There was a stark white-and-black arcade game aesthetic, a picturesque sunset paired with smoky wide-beam lasers, concentric circles rendered in vibrant greens, blues and pinks, and glowing, multi-colored balloons at the close of the show."[2]
