Just got back to Kansas CIty from Seattle.

Beautiful weekend and a great show. Crowd was lose and had a great time. You could tell they were into to it even before the show, doing the wave, passing beach balls around, etc. Were they nuts? No, but I wouldn't say they were out of it either. I personally could have went for a little for jumping on the floor, but to each his own right?

Band's mood seemed to fit the crowd, lose and fun. They pulled up three people at our show. We (my wife and I) ended up right behind the girl who got pulled up for the "piggy back ride" during MW. (One back on Adam's side on the outside of the catwalk.)

Bill Gates was a crack up, that guy needs to let go a little more. You could see him, arms folded from across the way. Bono thanked him for his donations and such.

Staging was a little better than the last tour, the light curtains were a neat touch.

No need for a song by song review, there are plenty of those. Personal hi-lights were the starting four punch of LAPOE, Vertigo, Elevation, and Electric Co, then Running to Stand Still and SYCMIOYO. Of the four U2 shows I've seen, this was probably #2 behind Chicago on the last tour. Good job guys.
