Notes:
Got to the show with about 7 minutes to spare and into my seat due to traffic on the way from Michigan. Amazing show. Just solidifying that U2 is one of the best live performances of my time. Stage lighting was exceptional and the sound was very good. I’ll let you decide what you think of the recording with the samples. Although I had no one in front of me, I split the corner stacks on the rear of the stage and Edge’s side. I’ll be honest sound is ok, vocals sound distant. Had some pretty terrible people next to me who kept leaving for drinks, sloppy messes losing their phone at one point and security is literally helping them find it right next to me. It was a bit stressful! The DPAs did well not picking up any of their ramblings though. Very happy with that. There is a reason I never do seats at an arena show if I can help it. But that is to not take away from this performance. It was simply exceptional and the first time I have seen U2! Enjoy the recording if you do wish to download.
