Energy Electric
Amazing night, it was very electric and there was a beautiful energy to it. Highlights for me were 'Mysterious Ways' and 'Ultraviolet' :) Ended up at 4 shows (2 x Melb, Syd, Perth) and this night would be one of my favourites.

Even better ...
Went to the Wednesday show in the Red Zone but this time Gen admission standing on the floor. What a buzz. I was hanging out to hear Pride - and you fulfilled my wish. Thanks guys. The best thing was when you finished and we - the crowd - kept singing and singing and ...
The lighting was fantastic. This show was - dare I say it better than the Wednesday show. So much energy and electricity.
I keep getting chills when I think back. U2 could have kept playing all night.
Absolutely fabulous!!!!

Not Stuck
Another Great show in Melbourne - my favourite moment was that feeling of 'Stuck in a Moment' being played for Michael Hutchence.... Another great moment was seeing Larry right in front of you banging the drum in "Crazy"!
Last mention: the 2 young boys playing and singing U2 songs on the avenue from the stadium........ thanks for that 3rd encore : )

Still Smiling!
We flew over from Perf for the two Melbourne shows. This second show was my favourite of the two. The sound was fabulous, the vibe was fantastic, and the setlist contained some of my favs (New Years Day, Pride, Ultraviolet). The band appeared happy and smiling and the crowd went off! (Jay Z was smiling on both nights too which was fab to see as my image of rappers/hiphoppers was they are a bunch of cranky pants. )
I was in the mosh pit and the vibe was electric. Seeing U2 so close was amazing! Im still stunned we were that close.
Blah, dripple, collapse. Im still on a high. It might take a few more days before I can write anything sensible. Wonderful wonderful night! Just perfect!

Everything and More
What an amazing and surreal experience standing under the spaceship claw. The atmosphere-electric. Bono what a showman. Thank you for sharing your journey with us, for infusing such energy into us all. I went both nights and Friday night seemed to see the guys more at ease, perhaps also because I was much closer to the stage. I am still buzzing and can't believe that I was part of such an event. I now understand why people follow them around the world to see their shows. It's intoxicating. Come back soon guys. You fill our lives with joy. Miss Sarajevo just perfect, Still Haven't Found and terrific version of Think I'll Go Crazy. Felt like lifting off with Vertigo and Streets. Thank you. Thank you Thank you. "U2 needs a big kiss"

Melbourne 1 and 3
Had the most amazing time at these concerts. Want to see them again and again around Australia, but must save and see them in Ireland instead...Loved the mix of songs, and the band was in fine form..Just keep falling in love with this band over and over and over again..Think my husband may be sick of my small obsession over these past few weeks..

Rendered speechless
Woke up Saturday morning, unable to speak, impaired hearing and a whopping big smile on my face. Greatest night in the mosh pit, danced every song, sang every song, loved every moment.

Thanks for an amazing performance!
Would love it if a (double) CD of "U2 360 degrees LIVE, Friday 3 December 2010 in Melbourne" was made :) Please let me know when and where I can buy it (seriously)!
While Jay-Z wasn't my cup of tea, opening the interim between Jay-Z and U2 with John Lennon's "Power to the People" was almost electrifying (the song has special significance for me) ... and I also really liked how U2 chose David Bowie's "Space Oddity" and Elton John's "Rocket Man" to book-end a truly spectacular event.
It was also really nice to be able to visually appreciate the truth of Bono's comment about Adam's good looks, despite being seated at the far end of the stadium on Level 3 ;)
This was my first U2 concert, but from what countless others have written here, I feel like I lucked upon the best to date :) :) :)
On a philosophical note, I thought Bono's "Rejoicing" at the release of Aung San Suu Kyi was very touching. I only wished that the "rejoicing" would have echoed much louder and longer around the stadium.
To Bono, Edge, Adam, Larry and all the U2 production crew: keep rocking! Great to experience your collective energy live :)

No Band Plays Live Better than U2
Saw the boys on Wednesday night in the red zone and loved it. Went again in the red zone on Friday night and loved it. I have seen all tours in Australia and numerous tours overseas. Two 60,000 crowds in Melbourne over 2 great nights. Please come back. Can not wait to see you in Brisbane next week , then Sydney and Perth.

Epic
They say you should never meet your heros as you'll only be disapointed. On Wednesday and Friday night (with great tickets in the Red Zones) I feel like I got to meet U2 and it was EPIC. The boys walk on stage with the amazaing sounds of Stingray Guitar blaring. Then the first few notes of Beautiful Day ring out - there were tears in my eyes and I'm not an emotional typpe! I've been to all Melbourne U2 shows in the last 25 years but this was trully something special. My only problem is now I feel a sense of sadness as I'm not going to see U2 next week, even worse, I may never get the same oportunity again. Oh well, I put NLOTH on the CD player and the smile returns to my face. Thanks lads and please keep coming back to Melbourne and keep the music coming. Cheers Karl

A memorable night in Melbourne
For those that don't know, this time in Melbourne was better than Edge remembered it as last time he was here he said "good night Sydney".
So we appreciate the "indirect" apology! Thanks Edge!
A massive night, the best of 2 in Melbourne. I can't wait to see them next week in Brisbane!

Rockin Melbourne
We managed to get five metres from the stage and had the night of our lives. Jay Z got the fans in the mood early with some great beats. U2 blew us away with a fantastic mix of classics and new songs with the most memorable of the night for me being " Where the streets have no name". Viewing was incredible from the mosh pit and I cant wait to do it again. Im eyeing off tickets to Brisbane this Thursday just to experience it again.!!. Long Live U2!
