Looks like a similar stage to the US but with 6 moving screens and screens either side of the stage.

should look pretty cool!

Does he use all these? I haven't been paying too much attention to what guitars Richie uses this tour. However I've noticed that the Strats are occasionally used. At the HAND tour he used his Andersonsignatur very much. How is it this tour?
