vertigo

Monday night, I took Matt to see the U2 concert at Key Arena--his first time seeing them, my second time after the last Elevation Tour. They rocked the house as expected and opened with confetti and spectacular lights on the stage with "City of Blinding Lights". It was a powerful and moving performance, at one point showing the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights up on the monitor. Perhaps the most moving piece was when Bono pulled up a young boy named Jason for "Sometimes You Can't Make It on Your Own". They walked around the elliptical part of the stage, with the boy singing word-by-word along with Bono. Amazing. All in all--awesome show, the energy was in the house, the crowd was rocking. Good going U2.
