I actually followed the concert via radio broadcast and it sounded SO well. Even better than last weekend at Wembley. I do like the opening song (well they are not unknown to me as I love Horizon) but don't like Surrender to end it as I said before (even many die hard fans do not like it) but well...that didn't spoil the great show it was.

Again, so glad you had a great time.

The sound was excellent, as I said I didnt think it would top the Vertigo tour but it well did! I have some photos up on Facebook if ur on there. If you want me to add you just PM me a name I can find you on!

The pics are great. Carli, I showed them to a co-worker who's going to Chicago to see them, and she thought the same thing . . . ALIENS . . . BIG ONES! LOL

Thanks Carli. I don't have a facebook account. If you want to see my pics I will send you a pm with the link.

Bono sounded awesome too, not too sure why so many people say he is not singing so well. He doesn't hit the high notes in some of the songs as he used to (and as Jon or any other singer) but still he has that amazing voice. It just melts me. I so wish I had a ticket to see them again.

Also, if you want a copy of the broadcast I'll send it to you. I am sure there must be a bootleg already!

Cheers Vanessa but I'm told that Kev has a copy waiting for me

They are becoming a band I want to see on every tour they do now, just for the greatest hits alone.

I loved the Wembley show

SCHEDULING CHANGE FOR GIANTS STADIUM PERFORMANCE
27 August 2009
The U2 concert previously scheduled for FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 25th, 2009 at Giants Stadium in New Jersey has been moved to WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 23RD, 2009. The performance on Thursday, September 24th will proceed as scheduled.

The change was necessitated by the rescheduling of the New York Jets football game on Sunday September 27, 2009 from 4:15pm to 1pm out of respect for the Jewish holiday of Yom Kippur, which starts that evening. Yom Kippur is the holiest day of the Jewish year.

The spectacular staging installation for the U2 360° tour requires up to 2 days to disassemble. The original 4:15 PM game time scheduled by the NY Jets provided enough time for the band to load out the set. The change to 1 PM was logistically impossible for U2. In order to accommodate the New York Jets, the NFL and the state of New Jersey, which owns the stadium, and out of respect for U2 and Jets' fans of Jewish faith, U2 agreed to move their show rather than pursue other options.

'We regret any disruptions this may cause U2 fans.' said Dennis Robinson, President and CEO of the New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority and Thad Sheely, Executive Vice President - Stadium Development and Finance of the New York Jets. 'Out of respect for the religious holiday it was critical that the game time was changed. The NJSEA, along with the Jets, want to thank U2, their management staff, their fans and Live Nation for their immediate response in helping us remedy this situation.'

Tickets for the Friday, September 25th performance will be honored at the newly announced show date of Wednesday, September 23rd. Refunds, if necessary, will be available starting Friday, August 28th (through September 22nd) at point of purchase for U2 ticket holders of the September 25, 2009 show who cannot make the September 23rd date.

The U2 360° Tour scheduled for Thursday, September 24th is not affected and will proceed as scheduled.

This news actually made me quite happy, since I have tickets to the Sept. 24th show, and the second nights seem to have been better on this tour so far.

Except for Dublin where the first night was the best.
