The July 20th concert at East Rutherford NJ was HOT in more ways than just the Africa hot tempertures in the outdoor stadium. U2 put on an awesome show with a set list that pleased the crowd, especially the encore performance of Out of Control that just rocked the audience.It brought back memories of when I first saw them perform it in 1983 in Buffalo NY when they literally almost rocked the balcony off it's foundations. Bono poured out his soul into every song. He gave the audience everything he had and didn't let the heat affect his performance at all. It wasn't until the end of the show that he proclaimed "It's Hot". The large 360 screen enabled those of us that were on the opposite end of the stage to see the band at a closer view. The show was 2 1/2 hours long and left me wanting more. If you're not a fan now, you will be after seeing a U2 live performance.
