Well, if you read my fan review from the Las Vegas show, I explained my past history as a U2 devoted fan and I mentioned we were heading from Las Vegas to Sacramento for this show with a one day travel period. We drove 500 miles from Vegas to our home in Reno, then worked all day Tuesday and drove over Donner Summit to Sacramento at 4:30 p.m. to make thew show in time!!!! The thing was, we didn't have child care for our 3 year old daughter, so we took her to see "Bono"--It's a Beautiful Day!, as she puts it... Driving into Arco Arena we were listening to the U2 countdown on a live remote from the arena and when we got in line to go inside our little one was noticed immediately by the D.J. and he tried his best to interview her--at 3---all she got out was "It's a beautiful day",,,as she ran off excited... We entered the arena, watched the show from way up in 222, still excellent seats...and all had a great time. We particularly enjoyed Mysterious Ways vidi screens...as Vegas show didn't play it or use screens like that. Every time I see U2 it becomes even more apparent how stripped down and real they have become. Really a great show. Can't wait for the Super Bowl show!!!!!! YESSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!! Our boys.
