I'll start by saying that the show was really good overall BUT I have seen better by the band. Maybe I'm spoiled cause I've seen 11 shows. As far as the concert goes the guys were great at what they do: play great music with lots of energy. Song highlights would be Walk On, One, With Or Without You, Bad, Pride, and Streets. The first 3-4 songs sounded muddled though. Probably due to their first show in the Fleetcenter. My disappointment comes in the setlist. Check out Chicago's show on the 16th. No Still Haven't Found, Angel, Sweetest Thing, All I Want Is You, and Even Better Than The Real Thing in Boston. Bono also seemed to be holding back somewhat with his improvisation, maybe due to HBO's video crew. They didn't do much of what I read about other shows: Ramones tribute, Jubilee Speech. Anyway, if it's your first U2 show or you've only seen POP you'll walk away very happy. I'm going again Friday, hopefully no HBO, Bono's throat is better, and a couple of different songs.
