i only started liking u2 about 3 or 4 years ago, when i was just 10/11 and last night i went to my very first u2. i'm 14 years old coming up to be 15, and i reckon i was probably on of the youngest people there! but that didnt exactly stop my excitement of actually seeing u2 for the very first time actually live infront of my eyes. and as a first time of seeing them i can honestly say that their performance blew me away from the minute they walked on that stage. i didnt think the song choices were going to be much a success, as starting with one of their new songs 'breathe' on their new album, no line on the horizon, i thought would be a bit hard to start with, especially when all you want to do is amaze the crowd and its kind of saying 'we're back, better than last time' but i was wrong, everything was perfect, the songs were from other various albums being mixed with their newer stuff and the first song certainly did get me off my seat.

my view was fantastic, i could see the stage perfectly which was amazing, because it was so big and quite incredible to see something like that be built in a stadium! they had these massive screens planted around them at the top which were indredible also, so clear to watch as well.
it was so worth seeing them and im so upset that i have to wait another 4 years for them to return, but seeing this concert will mean i'll be happy for a long time, not just because i've actually seen them close up, but because the way they commanded that stage and sang to not just do their job, but to make the hearts of everyone there glow and show their inner love for u2's beautiful sound become one huge sign for everyone to recognise
