Last night Julie and I headed to Solider Field for the U2’s 360. The ‘show’ was pretty amazing. The stage and the crazy lighting/screen system was unbelievable. At certain points during the show I got the feeling that the whole stadium was spinning instead of the screen.
Bono’s voice/singing wasn’t really there. Not sure what it was but it seemed like it was half effort.
Side Note:
* Getting out of Solider Field after a show is a complete nightmare. I can’t possibly express how futile it was. Not sure what the expect next Sunday.
** I’ve hit the point in my life where I need a seat for a concert if there’s more than 6,000 people in the venue. Standing in General Admission isn’t for me any more.
*** It is not socially acceptable to call your friend (or you entire address book) during a concert and hold your phone up. There are so many things wrong with this I don’t know where to being:
- The person you are calling can’t hear shit.
- Odds are you’re call isn’t getting through since you’re surrounded by 60,000 other people.
- If it does get through your friend doesn’t want 7 voicemail’s of your U2 experience, if they did they’d be at the show.
