U2's Visual Experience Arrives in Santa Clara

To the 50,000 fans who filled Levi’s Stadium to capacity on May 17, this was not merely another concert. It was the start of summer, the revisit of those years gone by and much more.

30 years in the making a return to something bigger, more significant than the news today of Mr. Trump and his issues. All of that was pushed aside to witness again "The Joshua Tree" the complete album from start to finish, mix in a couple of staples and you have the summer's biggest concert.

Great does not define the experience. Great describes a cold beer, a great meal, the trip to the venue.

A visual experience with a human touch that defies time limits yes the band did blow right past the local curfew which should have been assumed by any local agency if they took the time to see how long show could be. Ask any fan they surely would have given some suggestions.

Anyway, skip that BS for now, back to the visual experience. The wall which stands right in front of you provides the backdrop to the album and well your life. It's personal, yet it is also a venue for 50,000 people. The images explode upon the screen forcing you to step back and take a second and feel the connected vibe of image and sound. This tour is about the music. Get emerged into the music forget about all that other bullshit of mortgages, work, and blah blah politics just push that all aside for tonight your take back in time.

Thanks Vienna, On to Athens

Today’s show marks the only show to be performed in Austria. Vienna was a bit cold as some fans tweeted earlier today. This show was to be on the 2009 tour but due to a scheduling conflict was not able to happen. The crew warmed up and had a pretty long sound check that included City of Blinding Lights, Vertigo and Moment of Surrender. So this was interesting, the press had published the setlist thinking that was the “current” list, however just before the show started a new set list appeared. The new song “Every Breaking Wave” was played again, this being the second time. The new set seems to be working well, starting the show off with Beautiful Day gets the crowd off and running. So far reviews are coming very postive and upbeat. Bring back Ultra Violet has been a crowd pleaser. The boys move on to Athens.
