'Are you ready to have your mind blown?'

'Are you ready to have your mind blown?'

A question in a review of the opening night. (Answer? We were.)

Was it really two years ago that U2:UV Achtung Baby took off at Sphere in Las Vegas?
Here's ten highlights from those forty nights in the desert. And if you're looking for more,  you can find the best photo gallery here and the best video gallery here.

Were you at one of the shows? Add your memories in the comments below.

This is what it was like inside Sphere as the band took to the stage on opening night.

We were wowed by that first show… and so were the critics.

You wouldn't want to miss the pre-show party with DJ Pauli. 

Every night was a Beautiful Day and Las Vegas was always an Atomic City

Night after night it was even better than Even Better Than The Real Thing.

There were the deepest of deep cuts like Adam recalling that base line to Seconds all the way back from 'October'. 

It was a show where a song might be seen from a different view completely, like  'Ultraviolet (Light My Way)'.

'We love you, Larry Mullen, Jr.'. Larry was back in the house before the final curtain fell.

And it all came to a close with a new song… which is not new at all but never gets old.
