Performance

Outstanding! The band was in solid form. For all the issues about lack of setlist variation or shortened setlists they put their heart into each and every song.

Sound

This part is only rated, not commented on
Recording: "Schoeps MK4s - Sony PCM-M10" - 3.5 stars

Audience

First time in Chicago. Great audience participation throughout the show! Many were talking throughout the ‘Acoustic’ part of the show however.

Overall

My 17th show. My family and friends and think I was crazy for driving from Ontario, Canada to Chicago for a concert. U2 did not disappoint though. Loved the flow of the concert except for the ‘Acoustic’ section. Seemed to kill the excitement at that point but was regained quickly by a performance of Pride with Adam only an arms reach away from the GA section. Loved the closing of the show with 13. So fitting and with the lightbulb coming out of the doll house really ties both the iNNOCENCE and eXPERIENCE tours together.
Other memorable moments included; Red Flag Day, Mr. MacPhisto and the comic intermission.
