Yeah, I soooo didn't feel like working ;-)

And then this one guy from the office also went to one show and said: "well, it was more of a show than a concert." (He went to Amsterdam 1)
Where did he get that idea? The show elements really complement the music, I think. The lights are fantastic!

If he expected the lads to just sit on their arses and play, well then he clearly doesn't know U2 very well. If he wanted that, he should have gone to see Radiohead  ;D

<Hope I'm not offending any Radiohead fans now>  ;)

Well they certainly put on a show! But a giant UFO type thing with integrated space station mightn't be everybody's cup of tea (especially the residents hearing the 'clanking' as it gets dismantled tonight).
They sure did rock though!!

Must say I felt a wee bit disconnected in the stands but thoroughly enjoyed the show. Must organise a GA ticket for the next tour.. I guess some time in 2013 ?  ;D

By the way, I just want you all to know that I had a fantastic time meeting you all over the weekend. My only regret is that I missed out on daveys whiskey drinking session on Friday night after the concert.  :)

It was absolutely amazing! No better than any of the other shows but i loved hearing "Stay" live. Bono also added the "Shine like stars" verse in at the end of WOWY. "Bad" was also incredible.

While the set was excellent, I didn't feel the crowd was as enthusiastic as the previous two nights. Probably all back to work in the morning!

Well, maybe it's to do with me being at the first two nights! lol
