The British trio is known for their wide live productions, which often feature bright beams and light shows. But the musicians have concerns about their vision after a concert stunt made them realize how damaging the lasers can be.
Drummer Dominic Howard says, "We got some big white balloons, threw them into the audience and decided to focus the lasers on them. It was like a slow burn that gradually disintegrated them into nothing. We all thought, 'What the hell will our corneas be like in 20 years?' We could end up like that amazing vocal group the Blind Boys of Alabama - getting around doing it really well but not seeing anything."
