    Amazing. Wish I could have seen that live.

    Last night in Chicago was the best U2 show I have ever seen. Out of Control and One Tree Hill!!!! I still can't get over it.

    The crowd was amazing, the sound was the best I've ever seen. The claw really looked good in Soldier Field.

    Absolutely fabulous night. It was so good, I've decided that will be my 360 Tour. I'm selling my tickets for St. Louis and Pittsburgh because it will not be better than last night.

    Thanks to the boys for 2 amazing years and some of the best nights of my life. I think my tour tally came out to 17 shows, (1 in Canada, 2 in Australia, 5 in Europe and 9 in the USA)

    Will never forget it...

    Subscribers Special. This weekend U2360° is coming live from Montreal.

    On Saturday night, U2 play the second of two shows in Montreal - and we're carrying audio of the whole show live and uninterrupted for our subscribers.

    Hard to believe that after this show there's only seven to go on U2360°. All the more reason to get up early or stay up late (depending on where you are in the world) and join us for one of the final nights of one of the great tours.

    Saturday's show will be aired exclusively on U2.com, the third time we've carried a live audio stream from U2360° for our subscribers.

    Log-in on Saturday, around 9pm (EDT) / 2am (GMT), and join us for the show.

    haha! I just copied that and was going to make a post! sounds cool, plus that means there will be a decent bootleg of the show.

    Chris - I am seeing a lot of people trying to unload tickets for Philly next week. We are plotting our GA line-up strategy - going to need to get there early!

    have seen U2 6 times and after last 360 show which was on 1st leg of n america i told wife, no mas. the shows have degraded into a broadway spectacle, 100% un-rock n roll or 100% anti-pj concert feel.

    i have no seen vids and posts from the latest/last stretch of 360 shows and it has become apparent someone in U2's camp got the message.

    one tree hill, bad, all i want is you (my wedding song). oh man, i wish i've seen 1 of their last months shows.

    heard a rumour they may even do a shed tour next go-around.
