OK, my spot was just perfect: 3 rows from the b-/tree stage, but on the inside and like 5 or 6 deep from the catwalk. Just dead center "Larry-side" and right in the middle of the screen.

But last night was just THAT good

And even though it was not a 10/10 performance, it was just perfect in terms of energy and band-crowd dynamics & interaction.
Outside the rain must have gone down like mad, but thanks to the roof this was just one hell of an indoor show!

It was surreal. It was just sick And it felt like being in the mosh pitt "bombshelter" [2005, Vertigo tour] all over again

Forget setlists...if you haven't been to one of these JT shows you're completely missing the point. After the Joshua Tree section has finished you are soaking wet from sweat and tears. So powerfull. So emotional.
Before last night I really thought Miss Sarajevo would be lame to start the encore but, seriously, one really needs some time for some air (and blow up those balloons ) before entering Beautiful Day up to Vertigo/Rebel Rebel via Ultra Violet... Woow... that's it man! ...this is how it has to be done...not much room for change on this one. It just can't It's like a total blackout...

Ending with One was just so beautiful and so perfect. I just stood with my back to band because all I could do was stare in awe and wonder to all those cellphone lights all over the stadium ...just. WOOW

So I just totally rocked out from New Year's Day to Exit and standing with my hands in the air during Mother's Of The Disappeared while tears just streaming from my eyes belting my heart out... Like I said, Miss Sarajevo was just bliss

Yes, the Corbijn footage was brilliant
Yes, Bad/Heroes was insane (best Bad I ever attended )

Yes. You gotta feel this one folks..or just go home

Man!

Insane...
Sick...

Bad... real BAD

I'm not unhappy with the setlist just think it could be better. The 4 songs they finished with back then (desire, Ultraviolet, WOWY and love is blindness) are so much better than vertigo, beautiful day, elevation and you could throw Miss Sarajevo in there too, well in my opinion. It doesn't mean there not putting on a great show, London 1 was my favourite ever gig, but I could think of at least 20 u2 songs I could pick in there places.
