just back from Rome- very tired now...
what a city- fantastic weather, loads of stuff to see, friendly locals who help when the local rail transport goes a bit wonky (or we cock it up).
And another great U2 show at Stadico Olympico. We rolled up at 5.30pm ish and went into the GA bit- tried our luck with the GC and amazingly we got in there again- thought that Brussels 2 would be the loast Inner Claw experience for this tour. Then as usual followed 2 and a bit hours of jumping about and singing along with the band, and enjoying the odd moments of Bongolese when lyrics were forgotten
The big suprise on the set list was Bad/All I want is you- which was a throw back to the Zooropa tour days.
Also witnessed the flash mob- what an amazing sight see "One" spelt out across one half of the stadium and the Irish and Italian flags across the other half- it bought the show to a halt for a few minutes as the band just stopped and watched what was going on.
Rome was my 11th 360 Tour show and sadly the last for me- but what a tour it's been- Barcelona, Dublin (x3), London (x2), Cardiff, Paris, Brussels (x2) and Rome- have never done anything like this before, and it's been great fun, seeing some of these places for the first time, have thoroughly enjoyed every show I've been to
