War Child
I have a little point to make here. I saw the MSG New York 2 show last night and all I have to say is: MY OH MY! What a wonderful experience. The energy in that building was intense and I also had Golden Circle seats which made the view spectacular, especially during "One" with those names being displayed. It was Cathartic and for a moment there I felt safe and warm in the heart of New York City. Overall, a theatrical heartfelt experience.
Then this morning I read a few people's reactions to the show and some of them complained about the setlist again. Who are these people?? They nit pick and wine like little pansies because they didn't get a mixed up song list like Bruce Springsteen or something. Why be so critical of the songs being played? I saw the June 17th show at MSG and I will admitt that the setlist was almost identical to the one I saw last night, but the attitude and atmosphere was completely different. Thats what I focused on. Songs like One and Streets and Bad and Bullet had a unique effect even though I have heard them so many times before.
And yes, with or without you was not there nor Unforgettable Fire nor Mysterious Ways nor I threw a Brick through a window nor blah blah blah. And yes maybe it was not the complete 2 hours that most of their concerts are or most of Pearl Jam's concerts or whatever. But I saw U2 at Madison Square Frickin Garden in New York City for God's sake!! How many people can say that?? It was a beautiful night.
Thank You.
