U2 Concert Review: 04/23/2001 at Anaheim by DP

by DP

This was my 2nd U2 show. The first being at Popmart with terrible seats in the back of the Coliseum in 1997. For this show I had great seats in the luxury suites, which my brother got though his work. We were right smack in the middle of the place with a good view of the show. The crowd in the luxury suite section were a bit more tame, but still a good place to watch.

The show was great! They did a lot of new things in the show. They played ��Kite�� and ��Stay�� which weren��t on the earlier tours dates. Bono was really up for the show and his voice sounded great. I really thought ��New York�� was cool. A lot of people don��t like that song, but once you take it in live the way the do it with the art stuff, you��ll see what I mean. The climax was ��Bad�� and then ��Streets��. I also thought ��The Fly�� was cool. It was much harder and Bono was really animated. The crowd, at that point, was a bit worn out, so remember to pace yourself because U2 has a lot of awesome songs to enjoy later in the encores like ��One�� and ��With or Without You�� and the closer ��Walk On�� which I think has a cool guitar.

I wish I could go again, but don��t have any tics. I would have gladly paid $100 to see this show, but luckily I went for free, thanks to my bro. If your reading this, thanks again Tim for taking me. I won��t ever forget it.
