Performance

This show basically needs no introduction as the band powers through the set with incredible energy in every single song, delivering one of their best shows of the 80s and their live history and one of Bono's speeches perhaps gives us a glimpse as to why the band seems so extra motivated: This might have been their last show!

Unfortunately, Bono sometimes distracts from his perfect shape by choosing odd phrasings / singing techniques like going way too breathy, resulting in off vocals and often leaning into his infamous Kermit voice.


Sound

Great sound, I really felt like I was there!
Recording: "All I Want Is U2" - 4.5 stars

Audience

Dutch crowds ROCK!

Overall

I do have one major criticism and this regards the setlist: While each song individually is absolutely great and stuff like 'Slow Dancing', 'All Along the Watchtower' and the return of '11 O'Clock Tick Tock' and 'Out of Control' were great I did miss a few softer songs to balance out the heavy stuff. On top of that we got Bono's singing choices which lead me to, yes I know, it's a crime, only give 4.5 stars.

Highlights: Bullet the Blue Sky, Desire, All Along the Watchtower, Slow Dancing, All I Want Is You, I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For, People Get Ready, BAD (probably THE best performance of the song), New Year's Day, full encores
