Superb!
A great concert from the world's greatest band.
One Tree Hill put a lump in my throat and a tear in my eye. It was magic. I feel sorry for everyone else around the world who never get to hear it live. When performed live, it's like a little bit of Bad and Kite thrown into one, and the "oh great ocean..." part at the end is chilling.
Aside from One tree Hill, the set-list was standard for this leg of the tour. Angel of Harlem was fun, and the harmonica ending was very cool. Kite was a perfect closer, and I loved the way The Edge kept extending the song. It was a shame that Bono couldn't get the actual kite to fly (it got caught in the big screen), but you could forgive U2 for anything, couldn't you?
Perfect.
