    Best Performance so far is???

    Van 1 was off the hook. Too bad no quality recording of it. Bad was unbelievable and the crowd energy was infectious.

    April 28, General Motors Place in Vancouver

    WOW. Before going in to the show, I thought that there was no way it could live up to my expectations/hopes. The buzz around Van has been all U2, everywhere you go. Filmed the video; rumors about the DVD. How do they possibly live up to the hype, I asked myself. Then they come out and...

    Arriving late and getting into Ellipse

    Plan on going with a tasting menu of some sort...going early (5:30), plus hoping to wheel and deal, given how we'll be the only people there. I bet Feenie is going to the show... Totally worth it...And I'm fairly hardcore.

    Arriving late and getting into Ellipse

    I am doing this also, but am 5'11. Don't imagine back will be all that bad (back floor not as bad behind back floor); plus bonus*may get in ellipse*; plus can find perfect spot for /sound/view/production. PLUS, dinner at Lumiere before concert = too hard to pass up. At least I have a...

    What's Worse at a U2 show? Clappers, Screamers, Drunks or Smokers?

    At 160 bucks a ticket, don't I have a right to ask something of U2. And, LOL at the 'mind altering drugs are out of fashion' comment The absolute worst is people singing right near you out of key...or clapping. Smoke what ever you want, but if you do it near me, I'm asking for a toke.

    Hey Bono, stop skipping the scream in ABOY

    Completely agree. He is way too high on city of blinding lights as well. I recently listened to the Dublin 93 zzotv show, and zoo station and the fly were infinitely better. For those who have that recording, listen to the difference in the bass. I know I'm in the minority, but I think they...

    Whats wrong with Vertigo??

    Notes: BTBS - I like it...it is a far more reflective version and quite polished IMO. RTSS - good, but NOTHING will top the ZOOTV version. Zoo Station - Bono should just sing the real words...he is ruining the song IMO...again not as good as numerous zootv versions i've heard. The Fly - OK...
