It's a great tour by a band still able to cut it live despite what some on here will tell you.

The visuals are amazing and they really are 'a band' when they are live. It doesn't quite reach the lofty heaihts of their Zoo TV tour, but as that is just about the finest stadium based live performance of any band ever that is not surprising.

The version of With or Without You in the encore is just spine tingling.

You will love it.

I like U2, but someone used to play their songs on repeat here for hours after getting p!ssed, which made me very saturated of their music. Specially the one: "She Moves in Mysterious Ways" and "With or Without You". Nice songs, but too much of anything (no matter how good it is) can make you feel that you can't take no more, LOL

Great band. Have a good time, Speye91

Nice one. Took Mrs B to see them on the 360 earlier this year, cracking gig.

We're off to see Roger Waters do The Wall at the O2 in May.

Great band - Wife saw them in the mid eighties at Elland Road , Personally I don't think they have made a decent record since then. I reckon they peaked with Joshua Tree

Not doubting they are great live act though, albeit with 25 year old songs.
