Inside the Fred Again.. USB002 Tour
In an era dominated by LED walls and digital maximalism, Fred Again chose something radically different for his USB002 tour. Dutch visual artist Boris Acket suspended a 70-meter fabric installation above audiences in Glasgow, Brussels, Madrid, Lyon, and Dublin—a breathing, kinetic sculpture that moved with the music and crowd energy. This wasn't stage decoration; it was shared emotional architecture. Combined with phone-free shows and surprise guests from Daft Punk's Thomas Bangalter to 16-year-old Slovenian dancer Ian Hotko, the tour prioritized presence, memory, and pure magic.
