Which U2 Concert DVD

[Justin24]

So my friend and I have a bet going on in Madden 2007 for the Xbox 360. my team is the dallas cowboys and he is the oakland raiders.

So if I win he has to watch a U2 DVD. Now he hates U2 alot. And if he wins I have to watch a Celine Dion Concert. Now the 3 concert DVD's I have are the Milan, go home (ireland) and chicago ones.

Which should I make him watch?

Slane

 

[Vincent Vega]

Slane, and he'll love 'em.

Whereas... he owns Celine Dion dvd's?
Might get hard.

 

[*browneyedgirl*]

Slane, most definitely the best one.

 

[toscano]

If you want to PUNISH him, Chicago.

 

[U2lunatic]

Don't listen to them Make him watch Milan

 

[alanah]

Slane, no doubt about it.

 

[Liesje]

Slane, but I'd vote for PopMart if you get that when it comes out.

 

[phillyfan26]

Milan, the Elevation Tour was U2 at its very worst.

 

[waynetravis]

Slane

 

[Zooropa man]

ZOO TV

[MrBrau1]

find a new friend.

What other DVD could make you ask, "why am I being forced to stare at Bono's shoe?"

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

delay the game until after the popmart dvd comes out

then, for god's sake, do not lose.

celine

 

[Chizip]

if you lose to the oakland raiders you deserve to watch celine

 

[randhail]

who actually owns celine dvds?

 

[Chizip]

u2man

 

[Aygo]

Celine Dion... what a punishment!

I'd pick ZooTV Sydney or Popmart Mexico.

 

[Axver]

Milan, the Elevation Tour was U2 at its very worst.

Agreed.

Step #1 to put someone off U2 for life: show them crap from Elevation.

 

[coolian2]

if you lose to the oakland raiders you deserve to watch celine

Or hung

 

[MrBrau1]

Agreed.

You've never seen a Popmart show.

 

[perrypickwick]

very easy:
"Rattle and Hum" is by fare the best DVD. Just wonderful directing and cutting.

but what then? Hamish is such an idiot - good concerts by the best live band in the band - filmed worse...

1. Rattle and HUM

(2. Bootleg Lovetown Special Sydney
3. Boot - Buenos Aires 2006 TV broadcasting)

4. Chicago
5. Slane
6. Boston
7. ZooTV Sydney
8. Milan

the Popmart DVD could take the second place (I always loved the VHS)

 

[Carek1230]

Slane for sure

 

[kingofsorrow]

rattle and hum. the pretentiousness will make his head explode.

 

[U2girl]

Slane since you don't have Sydney.

 

[gman]

Your definately taking the biggest risk should you loose! But since you risk having to watch the human/horse lady beast, i think the nearest thing to be equally cruel, whilst fulfilling the u2 forefit, would be forcing him to watch the Shitcago DVD.

 

[Axver]

You've never seen a Popmart show.

Popmart didn't have Stuck In A Moment. Thus Popmart is better.

I have. All U2 tours kick Elevation's ass, which was mixed with Bono's voice being at its worst, a weak setlist, weak performances for many of the songs, etc.

Popmart was more inconsistent, but it had great nights. The Elevation Tour was always talked about having great emotion, which is really just a cover for their weak performances. I do enjoy their performances of Walk On and Kite, which were the only two that benefited from this "emotion," but overall it's just not a very good tour.

By the way, my official release ranks:

1. ZooTV
2. Red Rocks
3. Popmart
4. Rattle and Hum
5. Milan
6. Chicago
7. Boston
8. Slane

I agree with everything there except for your rank. I'd shunt ZooTV down a few spots and swap RAH and Popmart Mexico. All I really take from Elevation nowadays are great performances of The Fly and Gone. Most of the rest serves as a cure for insomnia or a way to put me off getting back into U2 again.
