This is far and away the best U2 show I've ever been to. The audience was extremely alive, and the band really fed off of it. It was great to hear Electric Co. live, although skipping The Cry at the beginning was a bit disappointing. Surprise Highlights for me were:
-Miss Sarajevo. It was if Bono's voice was totally different during the Italian part of the song. I knew Bono is a tenor, but I didn't know that he was one of the 3 tenors.
-Love and Peace was incredible. I didn't like that song much on the record, but after hearing and seeing it performed live it has made my list as a U2 classic.
-Elevation was better this time than on the Elevation tour. Mostly because the first verse was Bono and the audience signing.

I have only two regrets about the show.

1. They didn't sing Out of Control
2. No one told Bono that when they are playing Pittsburgh they're not U2, they are "Yinz 2"!
