I missed the close of the party. I'll wait to read reviews I guess...

BTW, thanks to those who posted & updated the setlist, etc. And a special thanks to Aaron Rodriguez, whoever he is

Oh and to Steve

Steve was playing some hot shit towards the end there.

Lila64 · 09-29-2009, 10:56 PM

I didn't have his link open, and I couldn't hear anything coming thru. I closed it after I thought I heard some MANILOW!!! (in Colbert voice)

Always good to know that most of the people complaining are online.

naturally, being there would have been amazing. anyone complaining is all too aware of that, but let's face it - we know what they're capable of with the newer songs, and if i'd been there i'd have derived much less enjoyment out of this show (although, still plenty of enjoyment) than others where no line and unknown caller were played.

yeah, you wouldn't hear me saying "OMG THIS SHIT SUCKS!" when the Jacket of Blinding Lights is flashing in my face.

That's why I said most and not all. I too would have noticed and been a bit disappointed at the omission of these songs if I was at the show.

i'm glad we're in agreement?

**ramblin rose** · 09-29-2009, 11:11 PM

Yeah, you missed my edit.

Still waiting to see the u2.com setlist.

ntalwar · 09-29-2009, 11:34 PM

Great show ... great setlist. Got in and out quickly (despite staying 15 minutes after the end) because I know the stadium area well. I suspect some people had multi-hour waits getting in and out though. Will post more photos later.

1. Bono scratched his ass in full view of everyone.

2. During "Ultraviolet", apparently a guy on the floor passed out. He appeared to have been revived and escorted to safety. I say "apparently" because I did not see it; I only saw his friends rushing up to the front of the stage and asking for assistance from security.

I was on the floor (inner circle for half) and saw neither - maybe it was on the other side. Bono did have a problem with his wireless mic pack, which had to replaced.

speedracer · 09-29-2009, 11:44 PM

The show itself was pretty solid.

During City of Blinding Lights, Bono pulled up a little kid from inside the ramp and had him run a lap with him, then gave him his shades (to keep!) and sang one of the verses directly to him.

The guy in ntalwar's post holding the USA flag was pulled up during Sunday Bloody Sunday.
