  1. This is probably their worst DVD to me. I enjoy the infamous and ridiculous in the heart fan sit down protest that is forever caught on DVD. The Elevation and Vertigo indoor tour DVD's failed to capture the atmosphere of either tours indoor shows. In both cases the stadium show DVD's (even though Milan 05 is incomplete) are much better. Strong runner up for worst DVD is the 360 Pasadena one also. In fact, it may be my least favorite now that I think about it.

  3. Originally posted by Release3:I think the reason elevation isn't rated in top 3 tours for a lot of people is because of Bono's voice. If his voice wasn't completely shot during basically the entire tour, it would've been even better.


    Amen to that.

  5. Look at about 1:33 in this video - fans that would have had those rail spots were "cut in front of" at the request of the band directly (at least from the story I heard), because the same group of people kept queuing to be the front row at every single performance. I think it was Adam that specifically said that can throw the band's magic off, so they switched it up - and those fans that were queuing for front rail sat down in the middle of the heart in protest.



    No idea if they did this for any longer than just the opening song or what, but once you see it you can't unsee it. Huge gap in the energy in the heart.

    That is honestly the most asinine thing I've ever heard of. People are selfish lol
  7. This thread on Interference has a summary at the bottom of page 1. It reads like a child whining about getting his candy taken away. Absolutely RIDICULOUS that a group of people who deem themselves "the biggest U2 fans in the world" resorted to a protest that would undoubtedly affect - if not ruin - what they also call "the biggest and most important night of the tour"

    It is fans like this that think they're better than everyone else in the arena and in U2's own management. They think they know/deserve the band better than anyone. So when they get told not to run their own GA line outside the venue, for example, they do it elsewhere anyway. Asinine is really the best word.

    Should have repeated this during i+e.
  9. Fans were babies
  10. That's why One wasn't included in the DVD if I remember, no? Because fans were still sitting in the heart
