Performance

And here we are after a long day for the band, mainly Bono due to G8 summit and Black Block riot, and for the fans in long waiting (it was not a stroll at all), the notes of the Inlux remix spread over PA followed by the real Elevation in classic opening way of the tour. People soon show the band they’re gonna help to have a blasting night. Hard work for Bono vocals cord in line with the period but he doesn’t sign he will hold himself at all. Solid carpet of sound by the band behind.
Obvious following with Beautiful Day where Bono starts to modulate his singing a little bit better; not a perfect Edge with some esitations and some feedback issues in the mic that bother Bono towards the end. Pretty good one though to warm up more the already high temperature.
Judas calling Jesus moment, one of my favourite and uncontrolled in every concert. Love the Bono singing as a rhythmic speech and the drums-bass lines, mainly Adam’s work is very good. Again not an aggressive Edge in the solo and in the final “duel” as well.
Adam launches his unmistakable riff introducing the explosion of New Year’s Day, great people going with Edge piano. Suffering Bono all over, and it cannot be different for this song; well supported by Edge and the incredible (his word) crowd.
Time to slow down a bit and Kite falls perfectly. Throat status really helps to pull out an intense and moving one; very well done by all the four. Like it’s used to say goosebumps all over.
The hype don’t come down with Gone and Edge is “on fire” in his amazing work on guitar, pedals and backing Bono. Larry and Adam gives him their usual solid support to his evolutions.
Passage from Pop to the new album and it can not be other than New York, the highest peak on the album in creativity for sure. It’s no less than a real highlight of the concert. Great in every single component.
Bono just makes a call and people don’t let to be asked twice in following I Will Follow (bad word joke I know). Nice ride through the song by the band in unison with the stadium.
You can go wrong with what comes next .. Bono needs to release all his frustration his anger of the day and what better than Sunday Bloody Sunday?! Fire in his soul tiger in his eyes. Simply at the top with the tops of the Sunday versions .. pure adrenaline .. and moreover once again Italians don’t betray.
Beatles In My LIfe introduces the romantic dedication of Stuck In A Moment. It doesn’t happen often I spend positive words about this song, this is an exception, nice one with a very nice sing along.
Crowd prompt the band with his amazing loud chant and jesus that deserved better than In A Little While .. kidding a bit .. anyhow it goes in the same line as the previous Stuck.
Acoustic set started by Desire with the band intro during the first riffs. Loveable Larryin the progression of the song. Gloria snippets gives it a plus for sure.
Larry and Adam leaves to let Bono and Edge Stay. Easy for this song, and with this audience, makes the moment a very sweet and beautiful one .. and this is it.
While the Stay chant keeps going, things become serious when the base of Bad starts. A long strained immense release of emotions by everyone in the building. No flaw and the voice increases the sense of relief of soul. No word can explain all this.
40 makes as bridge to Streets the big shaking of the stadium from the foundation. Hard job for Bono to keep it going but once again the thousands of voices support him till the end.
Mysterious Ways – The Fly to close the main set. Spotlights on Adam groove and Edge solo and end of the first one (too bad he disbanded it lately). Even more spotlights on Edge for The Elevation Fly fantastic in all the parts, riff, feedbacking, solo .. whatever.
Encore seems to flow in an “usual” way starting with a classic powerful Bullet to the Classic U2 ballad; With Or Without You adorned by Shine Like Stars snippet, obvious the response of the public.
One comes after a short break showing the peak of the communion of souls of this night. It could be quite ordinary at a cold listening but it’s not. Wake Up Dead Man is awesome in its moving interpretation; Bono takes his heart and spreads it out.
Walk On and Hallelujah singing should close this amazing magic night but … Bono definitely don’t want to leave .. one more and an extra Pride is thrown. Pretty funny mess up Edge’s effects accompany an exhausted but not giving-up Bono .. no problem all the people carry the cross. Absolutely well deserved double lap around the circle and … another incredible surprise. Edge and a possessed Bono muster the other almost endressed part of the band .. because “we can’t go home”. Back to roots for this other extra, Out Of Control goes better than the previous Pride but nobody cares of this stuff at this point…
Bono’s throat, some Edge’s blunders don’t affect much the rendition of the concert; the public has its credit in that though


Sound

It would be almost perfect if not for the bass too in foreground and the crowd lightly hearable for what it actually was
Recording: "Losing Control In Turino" - 3.5 stars

Audience

Just 3 words .. huge .. awesome .. amazing

Overall

Maybe I’m too biased about this night. Some issues don’t ruin at all what was a perfect special magic night, with a band composed by 4 guys on the stage and tens of thousands around it all in an unique Heart, Soul, Love (and not money). Indelible night till death. Always grateful I was part of it.
It should be A Must for every U2 fan and not.

Highlights: just to name some .. Sunday Bloody Sunday - Bad – Wake Up Dead Man - Where The Streets Have No Name - Kite –The Fly - New York – Desire – Out Of Control
