The Irish quartet's sold-out arena tour, a triumphant retreat from gargantuan glitz, pilots its fans into a blissful orbit around exquisitely uplifting music, forging a rare bond between performer and audience that all but erases stage barricades and celebrity stature . But Elevation manages to be just as provocative and daring as past tours modest visual enhancements - psychedelic shadow boxes, floating, star charts, overhead video screens projecting the band in black and white - suit the beautiful simplicity of new tunes from All That You Can't Leave Behind A heart-shaped catwalk that extends to the middle of the arena floor dissolves pshysical and psychological barriers.
