But isn't making a DVD about production and editing? If Hamish had decided to only show their shoes for two hours (only 1 second at a time, of course), wouldn't you agree that the DVD was crap no matter how good U2 were that evening?

Well, just buy a recent Hamish U2 DVD and a computer program that can automatically edit out all closeups of nostrils and I think you pretty much have what you are looking for.

Definitely agree on Party Girl, and yeah, I'd much rather have a DVD of the 9/20 Chicago show, but oh well.
I thought they had filmed 5/7 to test the setup or something, I dunno, guess I was wrong. but they still should have filmed Bad
Vancouver was the test the week before when they shot the video for City Of Blinding Lights. They shot some other songs also for practice at that time. The film/DVD extra gear was only there for the 5-9 and 5-10 shows in Chicago.
It was a great show, but I personally don't like Hamish' style of editing. There are way too much close-ups and the pixels are far to big at some stages. It could have been so much better.
These are my faves:
- Zoo Station
- The fly
- Love and peace or else
- City of blinding lights
- The intro of Bullet
- The cell phones during One
- The fact that they didn't put a version of With or without you on the dvd
But all in all, I repeat, it could have been so much beter. However, I'm still happy that they released the DVD. Can't wait to see the outdoor version...

I am disappointed with the DVD. Not the Band, but the production of the DVD is
