  1. One of the standouts for sure, both for the excellent recording, for the band performance, for the audience passion and for the immense historic significance. I'd put it as one of their 5 top shows ever.
  2. A fantastic night, this version is amazing
  3. 17 years to the day


    Now, what about that Rolling Stone article, Yogi?
  4. Yeah, we all want to read it.
  5. Just started play on Pop Muzik! What a show.

    Scrolling through the Europe leg for Popmart I started realising how special it is, with all these great places and stadiums.

    U2 - Popmart
    Kosevo Stadium.
    During the event, 10,000 soldiers stood on the left side of the stadium to ensure no conflicts broke out. At showtime, a decision was made to open the stadium gates to all, allowing approximately 10,000 more fans who could not afford the concert or who had not purchased tickets in time to attend. In addition to the local and foreign fans, 6,000 off-duty SFOR soldiers attended the event in uniform.


  7. Wow that's amazing! Added it to our photo pages and Facebook.
  8. I was just listening to that concert again. Say what you want about B.'s voice there, put that Please performance...
  9. I've stated it a million times: the Sarajevo show with Bono's vocals in top form would NOT be AS epic. It's just part of the magic!
