So, this would be it. And it became IT!
My first U2-gig ever.
I had ticket for a seat and although the ticket was linked to a particular seat and didn't necessarily had to be there early, I was there 11 hours before the show.
The first time I saw them. I will never forget

Amsterdam II
I visited both shows this year in Amsterdam. It was great.
Hope to see them back in The Netherlands very soon.
In the meantime I will see them again in september 2010 in Paris, France and twice in Brussels, Belgium. Looking forward to it.

Absolutely fabulous show!
This is the first time I saw U2 but it was a real experience. Snow Patrol was a real good intro for the concert. I took many pictures of the great and huge claw, it was fantastic! Is there a DVD coming of the concerts you were in the tour, in my cace Amsterdam.
(But one question: Why are you not going to Amsterdam in 2010?)
But I really want to thank you* for give this excellent concert!! * the band themselves and all the crew who had done a great job!

family day
Hi there,
we loved your show on July 21st. I just turned 40 that day and it was the greatest birthday I ever had! This also was my 9 year old son's first U2 concert. He did not know what to expect from it. He was thrilled and highly impressed! My 12 year old daughter was devistated while she went to the toilet when you played Elevation. She cried when she realized she had missed her favourite song. I promised her we would see the show again. Hopefully you'll be back in our area in 2010! I heard you are coming to Brussels. If yes, thant my prayers have been heard!!!!! I did not use my presale code yet, so I hope I am able to use it real soon.

Unforgettable!
An amazing night, absolutely wonderful. Definately a super setlist, although I would have loved Unknown Caller as well. All in all it was unforgettable, and not just because this was my first U2 gig, but just because there was an awesome interaction between U2 and the public. Absolutely Magnificent!

Monday was so great, then the waiting and hoping and praying is for other songs on tuesday... And that's exactly what we got! 5 other songs amongst them an acoustic version of Stuck in a moment, wonderful... And Bad... My god, we've sung our hearts out to our dreamband. Way to go boys, love you 4ever, hope to see you soon!

Great show! Again!
After a short night, because i was home from the first show at 2:30, my friend and i went to Amsterdam for the second one. This one was even more thrilling than the frist show. We arrived early which gave us the privilege of standing inside the circle of love. I really loved the setlist change. Thanks for two marvelous shows U2!

Superb
Some story here. Two nights in a row, inner circle. Monday was great but Tuesday EXCELLENT. What a joy to see them have so much fun playing together. After 'streets' Bono was lying on the stage, Adam looked at him and then looked at Edge with a big questionmark on his face, saying 'what is he doing there?' . Then Edge hits the pedal with his foot and then BAM the intro of Bad. Boom!, the crowd roares and the rest is history... More highlights: crazy, stuck, one. Thnx, Mario

I am really greatfull of having had the opportunity to see both shows in Amsterdam. The first night was great ( besides the smoking people who made it difficult for me at the end to sing along as my throat become more sore by the minute...too bad). The second night was even better then the first!!! This time on the frist ring and smoke free!! Wat a great setlist..All of my favourite songs were played.My son acompanied me the 21st and he doesn;t know how lucky he was to attend such a great show sine this was his first concert ever...but he liked it as well.

Edge and my slide!!
Back at home now from the first row in Amsterdam ..
I had a slide with BAD painted on it .. earlier that morning (8am i guess). I hold it up ... and edge looked at my slide ... and he moved his head to say to me "you're just gonna be fine" .. and there it was.
What a amazing, magnificent night 2 was, after a brilliant night 1 at the same spot near.
Thanks guys for giving me 2 great nights in Amsterdam.
BTW Bono was it really ment to be that you look in my cam the way you did? It is a brilliant picture ...
THANKS THANKS!

Don`t have enouh red dots for an accurat
Having been to both shows in Amsterdam (both attended in the front/center part the Golen Circle) ,I can honesrly say that Monday nights show was great,but what I have been privilleged enough to have been part of last night was just beyond compare.......
Last night was just Out Of Control.
I`m still reeling the day after!!What an experience!
I started dancing at Breath and with a scant few breathers I never really stopped and neither did the rest of the stadium!!
Magnificent to the second power!
Pleeeease come back soon.
Oh,and special thanks for including my favorit Elevation.

wide awake
I cried my eyes out with bad ....
we played that song at my brothers funeral 5 years ago, he was only 29 ......
bad had always been the brothersong for us ....
even started a record label called
wide awake records ........
and now they played the miracle song .........
and my parents were also sitting behind the stage .... so tears from two sides ....
you can imagine I was lost after that song ...... loving it .... crying .... shouting and screaming ..
what a gift ..... what a night ....
macphisto eat ya heart out !
we were together in barcelona 1
only to get this night as an unforgettable souvenir
from the year the boys went 360 .........
thanx

Last night i was witness of one of the most incredible concerts i ever been to.
What an impressive stage it was. We sat in the second ring, but the view was very good. And thanks to the videowall we could see every step these man take.
I was emotional when Bono plays One.
So thiny, and small. I was touched by it.
And songs like Elevation are allways nice to hear.
Thanks u2 for a wonderful night. I will remember it for a very long time.

Unknown caller
Great show! I've been to the openingnight in Barcelona as well. But why remove "unknown caller" from the playlist of the second night in Amsterdam? It was sooo great to sing it with you and everybody else in Barca!
Keep up the good work, love, Ellen

What a night
I went to the second night in Amsterdam. It was very exciting. Very good list, although I expected Unknown Caller. But I forgive the band for this. Snow Patrol was very good too. And what an audience. U2: THANKS! See you.
