This was my 4th show of the tour, and while it may not rank as the best, it was a very nice way to end the long ride of Vertigo 2005. We were seated directly behind the stage, about 3 rows up, and it was a spectacular view � especially for the final show, as you can see by our photos.

Kanye put on a very energetic performance to open. I saw him 9 days earlier in Everett, WA, and I thought he sounded even better at this show. Great choice for an opener!

Overall the sound was great from our seats. The band seemed very loose and Bono�s voice is in top form even after 9 months of touring. My only complaint would be that I wish they had played some of the other songs I missed from other shows on the tour (Stuck in a moment � which I believe was on the original setlist� Fast Cars� Discotheque� Crumbs� Who�s Gonna Ride�). Although I hate it when people complain in reviews about setlist choices, I just wish they had mixed it up a bit more from previous nights. No big deal, though, it�s just my personal preference.

Thanks, guys, for a wonderful ride! It�s been great, and we hope to see you again before too long!
