1. On the subject of leaving early - I walked to the back of the pitch and up the stairs during Moment Of Surrender. I did not fancy risking getting caught up in big queues at Mount Florida station so was happy to miss one track that is not favourite of mine.
    Will stay for all of the gig tonight , no transport issues for me tonight .
  2. Hi All,

    1st time posting but been a member of U2Start for a while (nice to be here!) and been a fan of U2 for 20 years or so.
    Ive been reading some peoples comments on the forums and had my eyes opened so thought i would leave my comments and feelings about the gig.
    Was at the gig on Tuesday and stood 2 rows on outer circle, this is my 4th U2 gig and have to say was by far the best gig i have ever seen in my life. Ive seen some big acts in my 30 years but nothing tops this.
    The stage was amazing and it will never be beaten for sheer size and tingly feeling when walking out onto the pitch.
    The sound was 1st class, crystal clear so hats off to U2 and all those that work behind the scenes. (The Walk On moment was a minor fault so let it go and sing louder next time and don't boo or whistle!)
    The atmosphere, well what an atmosphere! Were from Newcastle and we always chose Scotland because the fans always seem up for a good night and boy they didn't let us down.
    Im rambling on now so i'll just leave you with some of the highlights of the Glasgow gig

    - Walking out onto the pitch and seeing 'The Claw'
    - New songs sound awesome and brilliant start to a gig kicking off with Breathe, No Line On The Horizon.....well the Whole setlist but especially Ultraviolet.......Baby, baby, baby!!!
    - My partners best moment of the night was the I'll Go Crazy remix which i am fastly becoming a fan of.

    Anyhoo ive got some pics which i'll put on if anybody would like to see them.

    Thanks
  3. Was there and agree they should drop pride,Sunday etc. as we've heard them all before and be more adventurous.(although they could throw in bad)
    As for the Boos,why not?I paid a lot of money£150 for my seat and i expect not to have to be a guinea pig for any faults to be sorted pre their American gigs?

    All said having seen U2 a few times starting with Joshua tree at Wembley i would give the gig 7/10.
    Ps Bono sung their new songs superbly.
  4. Queen's Park's game yesterday was cancelled. Looks like U2 ruined the pitch.


  5. Ha, they want concrete like Cardiff
  6. Walk On is just missing You'll Never Walk Alone snippet in setlist on bootleg page.
  7. Originally posted by germcevoy:interesting reviews guys. Keep them coming. Leaving early is common (the police even advised leaving early due Parkhead emptying at a similar time).

    I myself left Croke 2 early. Left during Ultraviolet


    could not do that
    by leaving early,
    you literally create a hole in that massive energyball that is inside the stadium ...
    which has effects for your immediate surrounding ...

    I hate it when people around me leave ... it distracts like hell
    but hey .. same for going to the toilets I guess, sometimes, you just have to go .... so
    exceptions are excused ....

    luckily enough those in the nose bleeds really 'get into' the gig on the whole. More spectatorship than anything. Me leaving early was a neccessary evil though unfortunately.
