Performance

N1.I had the privilege of attending both shows in Montreal.I had GA for both nights.Band are very solid here.I love the 4 play of AB, to open the shows.During IWF,the GA went ballistic.Bono seemed very pleased,and was very into the show.The O Canada intro, at the start of Boots, is great.The French spoken intro during ISHFWILF went over well,with the French Canadian fans around me..I got the "feel" ,for Montreal at that moment.Promised Land snippet works well at the end.Stay,BD sound brilliant.I never grow tired of either tune.I love Mark Kellys message.Fans really got into Pride.Im glad the tune is back.Miss Sarajevo,seems out of place on this tour.UF worked better,IMO.Bad should take that spot.Zooropa picks thing back up.Loved it here.The young fans around me, started jumping up and down like crazy, during Zooropa.I enjoyed seeing that.Crazy Remix,as usual,was brutal,at least for me.Bathroom/beer run time.

Sound

Not bad.Not great.Decent sounding.Nice momento for me.Volume is a bit low.Intruments sound clear,as does Bonos voice.Fans are in the background.Turn it up.

Audience

Very patient,RESPECTFUL,relaxed crowd of people.Considering the confusion, trying to gain entrance at this show.It was ridiculous.If this was in NYC,FORGET IT.Their would have been some serious problems.They had steel barriers,facing in all different directions,adding to the madness.This made no sense at all.In all my years of attending concerts,I have never seen anything like this.We were stuck in line for 90 minutes.Again,praise for the Canadian fans, for keeping their cool.The GA fans were very very good.They were very into it, a solid loud group of fans around me.Young and old.Great time was had.

Overall

Loved my 2 shows, in this great city.The fans, both nights, were great.I met alot of very nice Canadians, during my 4 days in Montreal.Before the second show,my wife and I, met up with 3 couples, from N1, at a brewery they told me about,3 Brasseurs.Fantastic time was had.
During MOS,the rain came down in buckets.Bono,then started to sing Rain.I will never forget that."We dont mind".Zooropa,Stay,ISHFWILF,IWF and Batman are my songs from this solid gig.
