HA! (Makes up for them scratching off STBC on Tuesday - man, I wanted that one!)
Originally posted by RUMMY:Great, great show last night - especially main set and the first encore. I'd be lying if I said I didn't want to hear "Jeremy" during that second encore (maybe instead of Better Man or Black which were both played on Tuesday) but how can I complain when I got Why Go, Garden, Oceans, Blood, and BREATH for the first time.
My favourite performances of the night, however, had to be either Animlal (I went a bit nuts when that one came on) or Present Tense (such a great great song).
You can spend your time alone, re-digesting past regrets, oh
Or you can come to terms and realize
You're the only one who can't forgive yourself, oh
Makes much more sense, to live in the present tense
Words to live by.

Sorry to say on a U2 site, but they are the best live band. (Springsteen fans stay in your thread)

So Matt? Thoughts? How does this show rank?

I was extremely satisfied with last night show...I'd put it ahead of N1 and even the London and Buffalo shows of 2013. I'm still not too sure if I can rank it ahead of N1 Toronto 2011 - that show was just epic.
Now you know I can't help but take stock of what I still want to see/hear.: I haven't seen Hail Hail and, surprisingly, Jeremy since 1998 (should have gone to Toronto N2 2011); Have yet to see In My Tree or Deep (again, both played at N2 2011); This will be the last time for a while that I'll mention that I want Release and Spin The Black Circle (both played in Detroit 2014); and Dissident is one that I would really like to see (oddly enough it was performed at both shows I just mentioned).
So yes, there is still work to be done but I will remember those words from Present Tense.
I just can't wait for the next opportunity to see these guys again. They are the best!
