Live review: U2 @ Hampden Park - The Daily Record
Superstars U2 stormed Hampden last night - despite a few glitches with their astonishing new stage set.
The Irish rockers were competing with the Celtic v Arsenal Champion's League tie - and more than rose to the occasion with hits such as Sunday Bloody Sunday and Pride.
But at one point, the stage was plunged into silence when the sound failed.
Singer Bono was paying tribute to the Burmese opposition politician Aung San Suu Kyi at the time.
And the sound loss drew boos from the audience.
In a bid to get intimate with the locals, Bono asked: "Bellshill, where's that? How close to here?
He then thanked support band Glasvegas, before telling the crowd: "We feel blessed, you've given us a lot from Barrowlands to here."
As the crowd sang along to I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For, Bono claimed: "They can hear that in Celtic Park."
At one point,guitarist The Edge shook a huge Lion Rampant snow globe, to the delight of the crowd.
But while tens of thousands enjoyed a blinding set by the Irish rockers, more than a few claimed they couldn't see a thing because of the set design.
For long spells, U2 played with their backs to an entireWestStand.
Effectively an impressive piece of scaffolding designed to pack more fans into the stadium show, the monstrous stanchions of the 164-ft The Claw stage set blocked the view for some unhappy fans seated in Hampden Park.
Jackie Hamilton, from Cumbernauld, was among those who could not see the band thanks to their revolving 360 Degree tour stage set.
She said: "I am gutted. Furious. My husband bought me and my son the tickets and it's such a lot of money. £300 for us both.
She added: "I have loved U2 for years and won't let it spoil it, but I'm gutted. I think we should get our money back."
And Kathleen McCallum, from Ayrshire admitted: "I am very disappointed.
"I love U2. I've seen them since '84 in the Barrowlands days.
" I am disappointed at paying £150 and not being able to see."
Those fortunate enough to see and hear their idols let their hair down during the likes of Vertigo, City Of Blinding Light and Unforgettable Fire.
And while The Claw was a problem for some, thousands of fans left delighted - claiming the band had never been better.

U2 are renowned for being a spectacular live band. Anyone who saw their Live Aid performance back in 1985 will appreciate the stage presence and power of the man who appropriately calls himself Bono Vox. And the 60,000-strong crowd at Hampden Park last night were not disappointed.
True to the hype following two sell-out shows at Wembley on Friday and Saturday, the guys rolled into Glasgow to showcase both their new album and classic hits, including Sunday Bloody Sunday, Where the Streets Have No Name, With or Without You, Pride (In the Name of Love) and I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For.
As part of the finale, the lights were turned down low and a massive glitter-ball sparkled throughout the stadium as the band performed their hit One.
The loyal U2 fans were in heaven.
"It was totally spectacular. Amazing," said one.
"It was like listening to a CD the vocals were so clear," said another. "The crowd was brilliant, people were hugging each other, there wasn't a hint of trouble."
Even a technical problem with the sound could not dampen their enthusiasm. "You could see on the screens that Bono was still singing his heart out as if his life depened on it," said Debbie McGill.
