I have a soft spot for the Vertigo Tour in my heart since my first show I attended was a VT one. And a very special one, it was. But being honest, unbiased and impartial, the Vertigo Tour was not their best. Not even among the five best.
considering the tours i attempted in all these years since 1985, i still put the Vertigo tour at the bottom of the rank .. from the feelings i got living them live.
actually also after having listened to loads of bootlegs and watched loads of dvd my opinion doesn't change
coming to the Milan dvd .. it deserved a complete release not only 10 songs .. crowd did pretty good but .. when we didn't?!?!
honestly i think it's a great loss not having a complete release from any italian gig in all over these years
Vertigo was really the only time in their careers I really thought they were "Riding out the wave".
Boy thru JT: Band keeps growing, growing, growing, growing. Never a dull moment.
Lovetown: Played unconventional sets, in unique parts of the world, very short tour
ZooTV: Need I say more?
PopMart: Tried to go even bigger, even better, even crazier.
Elevation: Shrunk it BACK for the first time possibly ever
Vertigo: .......Did the exact same thing as Elevation.
Maybe that's why people find it so....boring? Off-key? It's really just a sub-par continuation of what many consider to be one of their better outings (Elevation)
