How Was It For You?

29 Jul 2011310
Simply by the numbers U2 360° is the most successful concert tour of all time.  Over two years and two months, the band have played to more than 7million fans in 30 countries on 5 continents.

Since opening night in June 2009, the U2 360° spaceship  has taken off at 110 shows. The set list at the beginning  is unrecognisable from a set list two years later.

But it's not about the numbers - it's about the moment. The moment of surrender. 

So how was it for you?
The best show you went to?
The track that captures the spirit of U2360?
The visual or staging feature that took your breath away?
The memories of a rock'n'roll tour that you'll never forget...

La Plata 30/03/11 - even better than the
The show was my first concert, I lost PopMart and Vertigo. But it was a break in my life. A journey of mixed emotions. This show was the only one, but for all the things that happened, the better. The opener song, Even better than the real thing, but all, I was crying man! crying happily. I was on the edge of the ring. See four friends on a stage with people back, orange lights. The visual scenes were appropriate. Bono, my girlfriend was devastated, she is in videos! Next improve the entrance to the field, running is fun, but the entrance to the stadium was not fit. (If you can play in Cordoba better!)

What about you??
The night of april 10th was the best night of my life...One of the most memorable moments for me was when Bono said the "you,brazilians, love other bands, but you love us more, dont´t you??"Of course Bono, you cannot imagine how much we love you, guys, and what it means for us your presence here in Brazil. It´s hard to pick one moment, but when Bono started to sing One (my favourite song in whole world), it was very hard to stand up and stop crying.I wish you a nice vaccacion, I hope you rest enough, enjoy your families, but PLEASE, not for long, because we need you so much!!!We´re waiting for the next album and the next tour with breath taked. And please, come back in Brazil very soon, no one loves you with more passion than us.And what about you? What was your favorite(s) show of this tour? What show will last forever in your heart??Love you forever!!

Obviously, this was the best concert! Bono was in excellent voice and the show was electric despite the heat and humidity. I had three great moments: Elevation--when the crowd exploded; Hallejuah--always makes me cry and Bono sang it beautifully; and Out of Control--it left me high for hours after the show ended. Thank you once again, U2, for giving us your all.

Brasil !!!!
The best show on earth. The second show in são paulo (i went to all 3) when the 360º tour broke the record of the biggest, greatest, largest show on earth.Whan they played out of control bono announced " ON SPECIAL OCCASIONS, THIS IS OUR FIRST SINGLE, THIS IS OUT OF CONTROL..." i went crazy!! When they played zooropa for the first time, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ... Bono was in his best shape ever. I went to pop mart, and vertigo tour, now bono is more bono then he ever was!!! Thank u U2!!!!
it was pittsburgh
saw the shows in miami and pittsburgh. loved both but pittsburgh won. The sound was better and there was more electricity in the air! For some reason I found myself crying with emotion towards the end of the show. U2 concerts really are religious experiences! Wish i would have seen more shows on this tour.

What an amazing show, what an amazing ba
I saw the show twice. #1 in Atlanta and #2 in Nashville and all I can say is wow! Both shows were great but Nashville was the best because it was sold out and it was incredible. The four Irish lads rocked my butt off and I am so thrilled to have seen them live. After these shows I am convinced they are the best band in the world. My favorite song from the tour would have to be the Fly. It defines what a rock song should be and I was so thrilled to hear it in Nashville. THANK YOU U2!!!!!!

Ground Control to U2
I have followed U2 for a long time and saw 360 first in Atlanta then with friends while visiting Montreal July 8. I have never been disappointed. It would take forever to describe all the favorite moments and all the favorite songs.. I think U2 reminds me to do good and keep dreaming big....

Thanks for the Beautiful Day in Toronto 11th of July.We had a grate time loved the show it was simply Magnificent.
chaparral
i will follow them forever
Tour 360 ° was the maximum for me to enjoy it too. Travel from Venezuela to Santiago and was worth 100% would return to a thousand times. They brighten my day with your music and Bono with his wise words made ​​me reflection. Thanks guys.

SPIRIT IN THE HOUSE
Moment of Surrender in PIttsburgh. I felt "loose electricity" being released from my hands as I raised them up in prayer and my surrender. At the same time a breeze of the spirit was covering all of those in attendance.

bad - sydney 1
Went to both Sydney shows last year and the version of Bad the first night was brilliant. Also night 2 with All I Want is You and Love Rescue Me (and Edge missing his slide ring in Magnificent ;) ). Thanks to the behind the scenes folk for putting the tour together, the doctors in Germany for putting B back together and to the band for the wonderful shows.

Magnificent

De lo mejor de todos los tiempos
U2: May God bless you. Thank you for existing, for doing such wonderful music, thanks for coming to Argentina. My first U2 concert March 30. My favorite song in this concert is "I Still Have not found what im looking for". I also really like Stay (faraway so close) Magnificent. Thanks, Thanks, Thanks, Thanks. Greetings from San Francisco, Argentina. :)

Beautiful Day...even more beautiful rain
The best song for me at the Minneapolis show was Beautiful Day, I went with my friend, and as Bono was singing those lines, "see the canyons broken by cloud...see the Bedouin fires at night...see the oil fields at first light, and see the bird with a leaf in her mouth" it was really something to be able to tell my friend that we both had seen all those things, and she was thinking the same. And greydogblues is right, rain does make a U2 concert seem like magic, especially with the changing colors of the Claw reflected off the billion raindrops., and the lightening overhead. Really a great show! I hope you guys go on tour again in the next few years!
greydogblues
if the thunder cloud, passes rain...
so let it rain .... rain equals magic at a U2 concert. God bless, until next time you fabulous band and massive crew - may you enjoy your families, homes, sleep, time to chill and think about the joy you have given to millions. sleep. sleep after tomorrow night... :), and may your dreams be realized
