Drop negativity, The show was great, and my wife and me had a great time again. I am one of those one-timers and I realize that sounded pathetic, but it isn’t, every U2 show will be a total new experience for me, and I don’t have the expectations others have. I’ll take it like it is. I would pick another spot at the stage if I had another chance. At the show I was noticing that the setlist was different from the first night, and I was thrilled to hear Until the end of the world and Ultraviolet again. Breathe and Magnificent were great and it was a surprise to hear Desire.

I suppose this page is meant to share your positive feelings about a show, but the most I read is negativity. About the stage or about songs that U2 should or should’n play. But that’s how it is. Some days are better than others. U2 makes the setlist, not the fans. And they do listen to the fans. After the shows before Amsterdam fans were complaining that every show is the same. In Amsterdam, they played two different sets, with three debuts. And now I read that people who missed UF and UC were dissappointed. At least they played UV. I suppose the guys skipped two of them because they mixed them all up and dind’t know what to play anymore.

The rain was pouring from the sky but we thanks to the roof we would not get soaked like in ’93 and ’97 at Rotterdam (great shows though).

Great night, Great show. See you in 2013!!!
