I have seen U2 on every tour since Joshua Tree and I have to say that this was their best - and I don't say that lightly. What makes U2 utterly so fantastic is that they will put on this elaborate and expensive production to convey a really genius theme dealing with the universe and meaning, knowing full well that the drunk masses at the concert won't get any of it - they do it for the few that do. Ultraviolet / With or Without You was definitely the high point for me. I loved the No Line stuff and wish they hadn't been bullied by reviews to pull out Unknown Caller, because I would have loved to hear it. I have to say, I'm just as excited about this band as I was in 1987. Best show I've ever seen!
