  1. Out of the Six 360 shows I attended, Raleigh 10-3-09 was by far the best, and Nashville from 7-2-11 was a close second. I have a better chance of getting elected President than those shows have of ending up on an official release, but I can hope. I had hopes of attending the Montreal shows, but all the travel to the U2 and Prince shows last year was getting expensive. I think the U2.com broadcast of Montreal was a special show, and would love for that to be released, but sadly, I think U2 want 400 cameras at a show that is put on DVD. I wish they would choose performance over special effects. I would choose all 6 shows I went to over the Rose Bowl performance. In fact, I've probalby listened to 40 full length 360 shows, and wouldn't rank the Rose Bowl show in the top 30. I'd love a bare bones release that just focused on the music, and not the billions of camera angles, or Hamish Hamilton's dizzy zig zagging. If the camera can't stay focused for more than 2 seconds, I just turn up the surround sound, and enjoy the audio. Sometimes Less is More.
  2. I see what you're saying. I rarely watch concerts but listen to them all the time.
  3. You mean...like this?

    What would you campaign on? Banning the Crazy Tonight remix forever?

    See, I want to watch the huge production that U2 and Willie Williams have put into action. The claw, the lights, everything - that what makes the show special. I think the intimate songs should be close up and personal as shown in the Stay video posted earlier, but the big songs should be a mad on screen blur. Ears work well regardless of what's on screen, the editing makes it just that much more enjoyable.
  6. I was at Raleigh and Nashville and they both were very special. Raleigh was the smallest stadium to that point on 360 and they played so well. Nashville another small stadium and of course The Wanderer, Blind Guy at the end made this so special.
    I think the The Fly version coming on U22 is from Nashville based on encoding showed a few months back.
    I love watching Zootv Sydney above alot of the Dvd because I cant stand quick edits from mutiple nights where one minute Bono has one hair style and then seconds later another hair style(Boston Elevation Dvd)(Chicago DVD) I think Rose Bowl did suffer though from one night shot. They needed a second night to relax.


  7. Maybe in the US, but in Europe, there were smaller stadiums:

    Don Valley Stadium, Sheffield
    Hampden Park, Glasgow
    Stade Charles-Ehrmann, Nice
  8. Horsens?
  9. He said "to that point". On the entire tour I think Horsens or Seattle was the smallest stadium.
  10. Why do people keep insisting on complaining of U2 not releasing live albums when you have an amazing back catalogue of virtually every show played in the bootleg section???
    And they are FREE! How can that not just be great?
  11. If we enjoy any aspect of U2 too much aside from things pertaining to "Where the Streets Have No Name", Paul McGuiness will find out and start ruining things.

    He doesn't like it when people are happy.

    Definitely not Seattle because that stadium is massive and holds 67,000.

    Horsens was one, probably Salt Lake City and Winnipeg too.
