ABBA may not be everyone's cup of tea, but I have always enjoyed their music and especially the harmonies. Anyway, would you believe that, after 40 years, ABBA is back!

 
ABBA - Play one song,& hear the whole album.
Like Barry Manilow,almost every song follows the same pattern,and
most of them sound the same.
Remember - Disco died for a reason!
 
I can't say I listen to them, but I have to give ABBA credit for putting out new material. Not a "Golden Oldie" tour.

At some point there's supposed to be a touring show done with avatars of them I saw on the news too.

Yes, they will wear special suits and sensor so the avatars will be following their movements but look like them as they were in the 80's Teaming with George Lucas for this. It's pretty amazing.
 
Day will come when rather than a sort of screen they're projected on from behind to look 3d, there will be real walk around 3d to view. Don't know when but imagine your "tv" as a raised area in the middle of a room and you can watch from any point as if it were a stage.

A bit more about how they're doing this. It's amazing technology.

You missed the day. This was shot 11 years ago.
 
Without a doubt the tech is amazing. Just a couple years ago they'd have to attach capture balls to actors faces to import expressions. Your video seems to show that is a thing of the past.

I have to admit, they are one of my guilty pleasures.
