and became the highest-grossing tour in rock music history to that date, with the band playing the entirety of The Dark Side of the Moon
in some shows, for the first time since 1975.
The concerts featured even more impressive special effects than the previous tour, including two custom designed airships. Three stages leapfrogged around North America and Europe, each 180 feet (54.9 m) long and featuring a 130 feet (39.6 m) arch resembling the Hollywood Bowl

This tour played to 5.5 million people in 68 cities; each concert gathered an average 45,000 audience.
