The crowd in Popmart Mexico 1997 is better than Milan in 2005...

Just to add a lil more fuel to the fire here, av heard Adam say that european crowds are best to play to as they know how to really let go.

Or "Booonnnoooooo!!! Booooonnnnnoooooo!!!!!"

Nice.

Come to think of it, the Mexico show did have some really bad crowd noise in it. There is this girl who screams in this high pitched shriek through several songs...

The Milano crowd did respond well to City Of Blinding Lights, the guitar intro was a nice feature...

I think if Hamish had released the full Milan DVD, then this would be a fair comparison, but then again I am basing it off a few songs.

The Mexican crowd seemed dead when they played MOFO

And even so i would be silent as well just being stunned by the huge screen and the whole atmosphere of Popmart.

Since I'm mexican, I agree 100% with the title of the thread

Now seriously, is very dificult to compare shows, to start the audio in this filmed concerts is heavily edited, so if the director feels like you have to hear more the crowd he just pumps up the volume.

Speakling of Popmar Mexico, there was no GA, all was seated, of course we all ended up standing on the chairs, my opinion is that if that show would have had GA, the crowd would have looked better.

In the end it's a matter of opinions, generally biassed opinions. And my opinion is that the loudest U2 crowds are the Mexican, the Brazilian and the Italian, in no particular order.

Australian crowds are the best. Na na.

 

[coach]

I don't know about the best crowd, but the worst crowd is definately the US. Man are they boring!!!

The thing about the mexican crowd is we don't get as many great concerts as europe and the state do. So when loves comes to town we really let it rip. Personally, I was at both concerts (Popmart Mexico 97 and Vertigo Milan 05) and Mexico kicked milan's ass by a landslide.

Australian crowds are the best. Na na.

The crowd in "I don't give a shit" 2007 is better than the crowd in "I couldn't care less" 2006.
