Performance

Awesome performance by the Showman tonight, and the rest of the band really seemed to have fun (although maybe should't include Larry because you can never tell haha). Bono's voice was really strong. He was looser tonight, spoke less, went off script a bit more than night 1. A few times was trying to think what he planned to say and then just said, forget it lets just play a tune. Couple of flubs - had to restart a verse on SATS (which was otherwise beautiful) but the crowd cheered him on, and he tried some megaphone thing with the harmonica on Desire which didn't work. Lots of energy and movement from Bono - he even ran full speed up a ramp which is a bit worrisome. No going through the motions, you really felt this is where they wanted to be and doing.

Audience

Montreal crowds never disappoint. Totally into it, so so loud, loved the new songs and the old. The crowd fed off the band and vice versa. This city really loves U2.

Overall

What a ride! Montreal shows always have that something special. Tonight had that magic and even more than night 1. I was number 150 and this time got on the catwalk close to the e stage - perfect spot to see both stages. This tour really is about the story, and how the songs fit together to tell that story. Starting with LIAWHL and ending with 13 works so well. While personally I could go without the repeat of the Iris/CR/SBS trio they do fit with the narrative. And it proved a show can work without Streets, WOWY - in fact you forget they didn't play JT, and it can be argued COBL has taken the role that Streets has in other shows (not saying COBL is equal to Streets of course). Would have been nice to hear RFD but other than that the lack of variation in the setlist wasn't an issue; the show felt as fresh and exciting as the prior night. Highlights - Elevation (sorry but it is great live and gets the crowd crazy), Vertigo, Acrobat - (Edge and Adam, wow ), COBL, Love is Bigger, American Soul, and surprisingly, One - it was very special tonight. I always think of what Bob said to Bono about a "professional" show way back- but a U2 show really is, in all the positive aspects of this meaning - the fans paid a lot and the band delivered by putting on an incredible show.
