Not going to write a long review as i think everything has already been said, went for a walk around the millenium stadium on the friday evening and seen people already camping, so decided to head down a bit earlier than planned,

Got to the stadium around half 8ish saturday morning, someone writing number on peoples hand, i ended up number 216, met some amazing people in the line, 3 couples from Birmingham, a couple from Bournemouth, and 2 guys from London, unfortunately for some reason didnt manage to get everyone name for some strange reason but we had a fantastic time in the line, until around 2pm when we all got told we had to put our chairs away etc due to the line being so long,

Anyway, got inside the pit on the back rail Adams side, the hours i thought where quite good actually and ALOT better than glasvegas who where utter crap, then came the time for U2, and i honestley do not know if i will ever see a better U2 concert, the band where litreally on fire, with the band and crowd being as one, i really cannot pick many hightlights as it was all just amazing, i got very teary eyed during Stay, the intro to streets, and something that i will never EVER forget hearing Bad live for the first time, with the crowd singing how long to sing this song for what seemed like ever.

So thank you U2,the vertigo tour in manchester also, but this is one that will live with me until the day i die, this was my U2 "religious experience", something which i belived i had felt before, but quite obviously hadnt.
