This show was very different from the previous ones (of this same tour) that I had seen. First, I saw it in my own city and secondly, because of what happened with the Macarena song.

Last week I saw a "bootleg", and in the setlist they wrote: "Macarena (audience booing)". It was funny to see that. I had never seen anything like that before! I mean, The Edge couldn't finish the song! Actually, it was really a mistake to sing that in Barcelona. Being Irish as they are, they should have been informed that Barcelona wasn't the right the place to sing that! But anyway, since the whole show offers so many different kinds of music (from the primitive U2 to the present style of the band), and since the Karaoke is some sort of a joke, I found Macarena as a funny thing to include in the show... but then, at that moment, there was a polemic thing about that song in Spain and the reaction was predictable.

The show was ok. A great one if it was the first one you had seen, but compared one of the London shows, it was a bit weak. Although I enjoyed it quite a lot!
