This was my first U2 concert ever, and I was amazed. Clearly the transcendent viewing in my concert lifetime. It was great from start to finish. I was a little disapointed in the lack of Unforgetable Fire material, having never seen them live before, I was really hoping for Bad. But I enjoyed the accoustic set, and the songs from Rattle and Hum. Did anyone else pick up on Bono quoting Boston, possibly more than a feeling, during Elevation, or was i just dreaming. I thought Bono felt like he was struggling a bit during New Years Day and Sweetest Thing, but it by no means took anything away from the show. High points: Until the End of the World, the bull fighting between Edge and Bono, Sunday Bloody Sunday (it was my first U2 concert, and this made me a little giddy), Walk On, I think this is gonna end up next to Pride, With or Without You, One, and Bloody Sunday as one of U2's most powerful and popular songs soon enough.
