Vertigo Tour, Chicago, 5.10.2005

Saw U2 in concert last night at the United Center. It was AWESOME! One of the best concerts I've been to. (i.e. the New Kids on the Block concert in 1988 ;) ). Bono rocks the house!!! It was my first time seeing U2 live, and I was very impressed w/ the show. Laura & Christine who've been to every since U2 concert since the 80's thought that it wasn't as good as the past ones. I guess the band's getting old. That's what I love about U2. They've been around for decades, and it's still the same people in the band. Love it!!

Of course it was a tad "preachy," but do you expect anything less from Bono? I also thought that they'd have a longer encore set, this being the last night they're in Chicago and all. Overall, it was a great concert. I was so glad that I'm not amongst teeny-bopper running around in their down-to-where-the-sun-don't-shine lowcut jeans and tube tops. Drunken 30 year-olds in tube tops dancing, now, that's another story...

Oh yeah, even got to ride in a limo to and from the concert. It was "almost" like prom. :D
