Fantastic show by the boys, all the crowd favourites were played (Sunday, Bloody Sunday, Where the Streets have no name, One) as well as some old favourites not sung live for quite some time (New Years Day and Pride). Personally thought that the sound set up was a little too "echoey", but this is to be expected from large open air venues. Found it hard to believe that it was Bono singing Pavarotti's Part in Miss Sarajevo for a moment (actually thought it was a recording) until I looked at the screened and saw him singing it (Very Impressive !). Sydney and Melbourne, you guys are in for a treat, Brisbane was the warm up gig as far as I'm concerned. The show and sound setups will be much more refined (along with bono's voice) by the time they head down your way. Just make sure you get right into it, especially if you have reserved seating. A U2 concert can only be truly enjoyed if you're standing up, clapping and singing along - Get right into it ! It's an experience you'll never forget and you'll be on a concert high for the rest of the week.
