    Am I the only one not getting a great sense of this? It looks like an awesome performance, relatively spur of the moment as far as U2 goes anymore. Thrilled to see it pop up.

    It’s not much of a critique but Bono got caught up in that bit of crowd play and couldn’t hand it back to Edge. As hoserama mentions, it went differently at soundcheck. Bono actively gestures for Edge to carry on but he just lost his way.

    I’m not complaining in any way. I’m all for impromptu.
  5. Seconds??? wow, hopefully they keep playing other songs popping up in that slot every night

    I'm fairly certain it is a Washburn. 'Support Local Music'. It seems he was playing it kn Trying at the Sphere.
  7. Wow, you are all so lucky. This is truly one of the last holy grails!

Seconds was cut short due to miscue by Bono. Hoping they do another soundcheck to polish it up and give it justice tomorrow. Sunday Bloody Sunday went over with the crowd really well, much better than Love Rescue Me. Bono slipped back into his book tour mode and basically gave the same intro he did back in May.

    This was show #6 for me. 11/1/2023 was the best show, this was #2 in quality.


    Yeah they do need to try it one more time before the break! Are you fortunate enough for show #7 tonight? What is it about a 2 hour drive for you to Vegas?

    Yep I'm here for tonight. 10 hour drive...so I'll fly instead.
  10. Good call! Here’s to an even better show tonight!
