[givemebackmycountry]

LIVE from the Rose Bowl.
I've been watching the lead up for the past 30 minutes and it's HD quality and about to blast off!

Let's freaking ROCK!

[Subdivisions]

1. The thunder-boomers chose RIGHT NOW to decide to hit here. I hope

the lightning doesn't knock out my power or internet :( .

[givemebackmycountry]

2. I hope your OK and you see every minute

CRANK it and the only thunder will be from your speakers!

LET THERE BE ROCK!

:hi:

[Subdivisions]

5. I only wish I could crank it. 11pm here and my neighbors would have a cow. I guess

I could drag out the headphones but I hate those things.

[Subdivisions]

23. CRAP!! Lightning got me. Been down for 10 minutes. What'd I miss? n/t

[Merlot]

3. I'm watching right now

they're running late? If I were to open my back door would probably hear the roar of the crowd!

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

4. just saw them in DC a few weeks ago

will be good to relive it

[Subdivisions]

6. May I ask, how much was your ticket? n/t

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

8. about $55

general admission floor about two rows from the stage

[Subdivisions]

13. Ticketmaster quoted me $250 for a damn good seat. Problem is, the

high-dollar seats were all they had left for the new Cowboys Stadium here in TX and there no way I was going to pay that much.

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

17. always go for GA at a U2 show

they always set the best spots aside for the hard-core fans who will wait in line

they did it on the last three tours i saw

[Marlana]

43. I checked on tickets for that show & they quoted me $280

I've been trying to see U2 since about 1990 and still haven't managed to do it.

[AllyCat]

14. Dang, I paid $50 a seat to see the Wiggles last week :)

[Captain Hilts]

48. I just HATE getting in and out of FedEx field. And the upper deck is too far up and back to be worth

paying to sit in.

[Electric Monk]

7. Is it just me or did they use a crappy audio codec? I hear lots of digital noise.

Hurts the ears a bit even. Not good for music, not good at all.

[Subdivisions]

10. Sounds fine here. n/t

[Electric Monk]

16. I just rebooted my browser and loaded it again, it sounds better now.

Clearer picture too. Still not what I'd call great, but not as bad as it was.

[AllyCat]

15. we hear it too. A little better now

[mzmolly]

26. Music is good but I agree the audio

isn't as great as it could be. ;)

[Mrs. Overall]

9. Wow! Tuned in just in time to see them take the stage!

[Subdivisions]

11. Welcome! Enjoy! This is pretty cool. n/t

[AllyCat]

12. Nice! Thanks for the heads up!

[Fuzz]

18. Rocking now with you. Been a U2 fan since, gasp 81.

I'm old.

[madrchsod]

19. nice background music.....

good thing i have a bitch`n sound card.......

[msongs]

20. no video, just a little thingy spinning in circles lol. oh well back to live beatles clips nt

[AllyCat]

21. Trivia time. Didn't Brian Eno produce one or two of their albums?

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

22. 5

Unforgettable Fire
Joshua Tree
Achtung Baby
Zooropa
All That You can't Leave behind
No Line on the Horizon

[AllyCat]

24. Thanks! Except that's six isn't it?

From Roxy to U2...what a career!

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

28. D'oh!

but you're right. Eno's awesome.
He also did great stuff with Talking Heads and Bowie.

[AllyCat]

29. Ah, Bowie...Bryan Ferry's friendly rival :)

Don't forget Coldplay.

[mzmolly]

25. Very cool!

:kick:

[Electric Monk]

27. "We've got old songs, we've got new songs, we've got songs we can barely play" lol

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

30. 'Until the End of the World'

one of my all-time favorites
glad they brought this one back into the live show

[Electric Monk]

31. That screen (~1000 screens?) above them is insane. I see now why Bono calls it "the spaceship"

When they started moving from a cylinder into that cone with open space I was totally "WTF!?!??"

[Subdivisions]

32. I'm loving that stage. Excellent concept. n/t

[Fuzz]

33. Loving it. Want to go to bed, but can't.

;)

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

same here

gonna be a lot of puffy-eyed, sleepy folk 'round the world tomorrow

[Fuzz]

36. Lol, ya. Encore!

[Initech]

34. That stage is fucking insane. I wonder how long it took to build?

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

35. the Suu Kyi tribute was beautiful

and so is a quick browse over twitter, when you see all the languages and see how many are watching worldwide

[Fuzz]

37. Desmond Tutu!

[Electric Monk]

38. Is it getting better? Do we feel the same?

Will it make it easier on you now, if you've got someone to blame?

[Fuzz]

39. You say Love is a temple Love a higher law

You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what you got
When all you got is hurt

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

40. that was great - g'night folks

who else made it to the end?

[Electric Monk]

42. the second half was better than the first, imho, especially the encores. nt

[Amonester]

41. Must have been a world record!

Live! From LA to the world.

Muchas gracias. Merci beaucoup. Thank u u 2. :)

[Missy Vixen]

44. Just one little quibble

I didn't arrive till 11, so I missed a lot.

There are few things that annoy me as much as any performer who chooses not to sing one of their most popular songs and let the audience do it instead. Hey, Bono, everyone knows the lyrics to "With or Without You," but they paid to hear you sing it.

I'm sorry I evidently missed "One".

[Amonester]

45. They would have to pay me to attend any of their shows.

Since that one was 'free' and not 'too' bad overall (their spaceship was something to see... even on very low, crapy resolution), I thank them (and all the people who made that 'free' concert possible to watch around the world).

I understand the probable frustration of many of those who paid for it, though.

[Subdivisions]

47. I know right. That's EXACTLY my thinking on that - with any band. I want to

see the band perform, not listen to some lame audience singing along.

[Loudmxr]

46. It was great! I am looking forward to seeing it again on video.

My SO got me a ticket and said "but you will have to stand". I said "you mean I will have to DANCE!"
All in all a nice evening of traditional Irish music and at a volume I prefer.
