U2
It was an awesome show. The music was great and they performed very well. Show started with ‘City of Blinding Lights’ from their latest album, How to dismantle an atomic bomb. It was followed by Vertigo from the same album and the whole place just exploded with lights and sound. It is probably the most popular song from the album. Then, they went on to play a good mix of old and new songs. A lot of old songs from ‘Joshua tree’ and ‘Achtung baby’. They even played my favorite U2 song, “I’ll follow” from their album, “Boy”. I was just amazed by the lead guitarist, Edge.
The show went on for more than 2 hours without a break. Can’t imagine how they, especially Bono, get the energy to do it 3-4 nights a week. They are not young anymore. Getting close to 50 or already there.
Overall, it was an excellent show. If they are coming to your neighbourhood, don’t miss a chance to see them live.
Another highlight of the night: Met hemya in person, my first ever LJ friend to meet me in real life. He was at the concert too. Will meet him again in 2 days in Cleveland.
