  1. WOW, what a topic.

    For me the best overall moment has been just watching the videos. Lets put this into perspetive for 20 / 30 years all we/I have had as fans is 'audio' recordings, yes this has changed in the last tour or two, but really....bootleg video is still new and how it is now being recorded is incredible... Hand held phones/camera recording in HD 1080, seriously people thing about this for a few moments, I thought the 720p Hawaii 3/4/5 camera video mix was good amature stuff....the stuff from this tour will be mixed and matched into full legth dvd's in 1080 that will live on for years!... for me I haven't had the chance to attend a show YET (6 on leg 2!) but I've been able to sit back and just watch video after video after video for hours.. (just killing the wife at midnight every night)

    So now some of the highlights..
    first time playing live of ES has to be up there
    the rebirth of UF after 20...long year!
    UV....
    the return to poland (fan flag)
    tributes to MJ
    Party Gil, happy birthday with his daughter.
    every live version of Pride (sorry its my #1)
    3.33
    ....i know I've missed some!
    to all the recorders.... thank you.

  2. Streets Barcelona (not sure 1 or 2). This is my favorite capture BY FAR, uploaded by pimzzz.

    Fast-forward to 1:10 to skip Tutu.

    The angle for the flood-light flash is brilliantly to the side, not head-on. (When it's head-on, the brightness of the light is diminished.) And the entire floor level is visibly jumping with arms out (...not knowing defeat).

  3. Originally posted by haytrain:This is probably one of the lowest quality videos we'll see in this topic, but mine is from "City of Blinding Lights" at Dublin 1. I was on the rail to the catwalk where Edge's bridge usually stopped, and Bono paused right in front of Remy and I to sing the second verse of the song. A fan behind us (who was dressed like Vertigo-era Bono...very creepy) had taken off his Bono shades to hand to Bono, but couldn't reach the stage. Bono saw the guy reaching and motioned for me to pass the glasses forward to him, so I grabbed the glasses from the look-a-like's hand and handed them up to Bono. He handed me his own glasses, and then put the fans glasses on his face. For a split second, I thought about keeping Bono's glasses for myself, but did actually give them to the creepy look-a-like guy.

    So anyways, this clip is the best I can find of this interaction. Unfortunately, the guy shooting the video pans away just before the moment, but you can see the interaction on the bigscreen (at about 2:20)

    Also, you can see Remy (white shirt) and myself (green shirt) rocking out at about 3:00 on the far right side of the frame)

    Fantastic.

    I'll try and find a video for mine...... back later....
  4. for me, it's the rebirth of Ultra Violet in barcelona. That's the ultimate defenition of goosebumps.
  5. My moment is, when my friends played Angel of Harlem on stage in Berlin

  6. Well, I planned to post Ultraviolet from Zagreb 2, but as the song has been posted twice, I'll show you something else. It's With or Without You from the show I attended. Easily the best performance of the song so far. Reason? Shine Like Stars snippet! The end of the song is just brilliant. Worth watching.

    Epic indeed

    Certainly best performance of it this tour...still miles behind a Zoo-performance tough...
    Snippet does it
  10. Beside the ones from Amsterdam 2, I really liked the one with the intro from Wembley by U2006, where there is a close up of Larry, great one.
  11. so hard to choose but this one from Milano 1 is something i'll never forget...

  12. such awesome choices and a great topic.
    had a hard time picking mine and actually, it's not entirely possible for me to nail it down on one moment, but I want one of them posted here, so I'll go for this:



    the vertigo fuck-up at the gelsenkirchen show. we had SUCH a blast, especially with crazy tonight right after. the place was one big party...

    also have to mention beautiful day from amsterdam I, because that one was just magical for me. or goyb from the same show, cos I saw edge coming right towards me over the bridge. but yeah, can only chose one vid
