Gwen Stefani says that No Doubt are "excited" about their upcoming residency at Sphere in Las Vegas, and are aiming to deliver an "awesome" nostalgic experience for fans attending the shows in May.
Stefani discussed the Californian band's first-ever Las Vegas residency during an appearance on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon. on Wednesday (December 3). Earlier this year, No Doubt announced their intention to play six shows at the largest spherical structure on Earth next May, then doubled their planned run at the groundbreaking venue due to what they described as an "incredible response" from fans.
Bar an appearance at the star-studded FireAid benefit show in Los Angeles in January, the Anaheim ska-punk quartet have maintained a low-key presence since reuniting for their headlining appearances at last year's Coachella festival.
"We're excited," Stefani told Tonight Show host Fallon, looking ahead to May. "We did Coachella and it was so unbelievably amazing, and we're kinda talking for a while - we do everything slow - but we were talking for years again, trying to find that thing that would be as good, and I think the Sphere is the future, you know what I'm saying? It's kind of a cross between a concert and a movie.
“I think the goal - I mean it instantly sold out; I think we have six more shows left - I want people to come and make it feel really nostalgic, like they're back in time, like 'Remember this? Remember this, guys? This is what we did together.' They're a big part of our lives, and we want to see them in Vegas."
