It's an amazing show (and bootleg) whether you like it or not. A show where Bono loses his voice AND he requests the audience and the band to carry on and help him is amazing. Moreover, if it's the first rock concert in a war devastated country for almost 6 years, then the emotions and the strong community feeling get over everything else and the show is lifted to the category of "legendary".

End that's why people like this show. They don't like this show for the music, they like the show because of the fantastic audience and that these people were able to see a concert. It is almost a miracle that this concert was able to be held, but that doesn't make it a legendary show. It makes it an interesting and important historical event. A legendary show is something that's amazing for the music, not the other things. The Point Depot shows are legendary not Sarajevo.
I don't see you guys saying that the show where Adam couldn't make it was legendary because the band decided to not cancel the show. (But soon you will all be saying that the Torino show last year was legendary and only because Bono was able to perform after only 3 months since his injury, if you haven't already.)
