Truth be known, I attended this performance with three friends and at first, we all walked around the Georgia Dome's upper level (where our tickets had us at the far end, top row of the Dome) and gauged that the music reverberations and echos were too distorting to understand the actual lyrics to the songs. So, about half-way through U2's main set, a friend and I scampered down to the Dome's lower level, scanning each aisle entry while walking toward the last aisle to the left of the stage. We then descended the steps to the 4th row, where I had observed there were six unoccupied seats with no cups in the cup holders. Sitting in the two middle seats, my friend and I enjoyed an outstanding visual feast of the greatest multimedia electronic light show we had ever seen, along with being approx. 100 feet from the band, the powerful vocals of Bono and the Edge's hot riffs, made this my best concert experience ever, including up to the present time (13 Feb 2009).
