Several observations:
  • Looks like "Scarlet" is becoming somewhat of a staple on this leg. That's cool.
  • Looks like they're sticking with the "open with four songs from Achtung Baby" format. That's VERY cool.
  • Looks like they busted out "Magnificent" this time, instead of one of the crappier songs from NLOTH. Nice. I love that song.
  • They really need to stop doing "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me". That song has always been boring as hell.
  • Thank hell they didn't close with "Moment of Surrender" (although they *almost* did). An older song is a better choice, but I still wish they'd go back to "40".
  • Overall, this looks like a great set. I'm really getting stoked for next Tuesday in Pittsburgh.
The last time I saw them was in the old Giants Stadium in 2009. Glad your experience there was similarly awesome to the one I had.
