What can I say? Wow!!

This was my 8th U2 show, and I have to say, one of my favorite setlists! Its like U2 actually read my review from the Vancouver show a year and a half ago, and answered the call!

The show's setlist was amazing. Any true U2 fan would go nuts over this setlist - some highlights for me were Zooropa, Even Better Than The Real Thing, Pride, and of course - Hold me Thrill me, Kiss Me, Kill Me. Some real gems that havent surfaced in a long time. It was so special to hear Zooropa, as that song has always been a favorite of mine since I discovered U2. Its funny, so many people in the audience had confused looks when I was cheering and bouncing during Zooropa. I just wish more people around me were bigger fans to really appreciate these gems. I'd think if I was in the heart (or whatever it is), then I would have been among more true U2 fans.

We ended up about 4 rows on the floor from the catwalk on edge's side. Awesome place to be, as bono and the boys walked around a few times, and we still had a great view of the screens.

Of course my other favorites were Until the end of the world, Streets, and All I want is you. My new favorite song to come out of this tour is the remix of I'll go crazy. Its absolutely amazing live, and I hope they continue this version on future tours.

All in all, an amazing show. The setlist was amazing with lots of favorites, and some real gems that havent been played in a long time.

I felt so good afterwards I couldnt sleep. I wish they could have played forever, but was very happy that they played for almost 2.5 hours! Thats more than the usual 2 hours at the previous shows I've attended during the elevation and vertigo tours.

Cant wait to see the next one! Hopefully it will be soon in either Toronto or Montreal!
