November 24, 200619 yr wow.... From: U2.com 24.11.2006 'When the stars fall from the sky...' 'I'll see you again when the stars fall from the sky...' The achingly beautiful One Tree Hill was in the set for the opening show in Auckland tonight, as the band remembered their friend Greg Caroll. Here's what they played. City of Blinding Lights Vertigo Elevation I Will follow New Year’s Day Beautiful Day One Tree Hill Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own Love and Peace Sunday Bloody Sunday Bullet The Blue Sky Miss Sarajevo Pride (in the Name of Love) Where the Streets Have No Name One The Fly Mysterious Ways With or Without You The Saints are Coming Angel of Harlem Kite
November 24, 200619 yr U218? Yeap, it's come out where I am at least (states). Probably elsewhere as well ;)
November 24, 200619 yr One Tree Hill from today's show in Auckland video on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sspVCKq-sm4 still have to listen to it though..it seems it has been fantastic
November 24, 200619 yr OH HELL YEAH! Eclipse. Against the front barrier, on Edges side. . . . . . . What a show!!! During Streets have no name, the U2NZ fans organised balloons on Irish colours (Green, orange, white) to be blown up and let go. . . well lets just say it went off BIG TIME, Bono was speechless, at the end, he said "You guys are too much!" he was in fine form, they all were!!! I am speechless myself, by ears are ringing!!! still!! and I have had 3 hours sleep!!! I was surprised how organised it all was (pleasantly surpeised) we got early, and they let us queue under cover. . . so all in all a fantastic atmosphere. . . even Kanye went off. . . . so . . . I will post some pics for you. . . these pics are better than any I have tken in the past as we were up the front! give me a few minutes. . .

November 25, 200619 yr OMG..OMG..OMG Those pics are stunning :stunned: *right click save as* And you had Bad..ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh...I don't want to think what the show in Honolulu will be like U2 love all around :heart: How was One tree hill...did Bono try to reach the higher notes? P.S. Andrew can I show your pics in another U2 board? (it's the Italian one I'm writing in, they have to take a look at them :nice:)
November 25, 200619 yr OMG!!!!!!! Andrew those photos are FANTASTIC!!!!! Thats so cool...I love the balloons idea, that was really cool and OMG you got Edges guitar pick, man that is so cool wow...how did you shot photos so clearly? and you got pick, you are so lucky!!!:o
November 25, 200619 yr Andrew, I've just got to ask you what kind of camera you used on those. A regular point and shoot digital? They came out INCREDIBLE, the more I look at them!!! Wow! The last one, with Bono, rivals that of some pictures I've seen taken by professional photographers who get in the "pit". Great shot. :D So, where are they off to next? I haven't really memorized this tour ;) haha
November 25, 200619 yr wow...how did you shot photos so clearly? I got to the front of the stage on Edges side of the stage, so they stand about 2 metres away from me. . . . An Cat, just a simple point and shoot, 6 mega pixels, and had settings set to 400 ISO, and best quality so that I could zoom in on the computer when i coome to edit them and not lose too much of the quality. . . and I guess after 5 shows, I kinda know where they will be for what song, so you are prepared and it is good practise! at 5 shows. Iriden, yeah please spread the U2 love around onto the U2 Italian board. . . . one of your friends over there sorted me out with some great live stuff so no problems . . . wanabacoa - Thanks for posting the youtube! . . . U2 are off to 3 shows in Japan, and then Hawaii.. . . WHAT WILL I DO NEXT WEEKEND? ARRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH
November 26, 200619 yr Andrew! Brilliant pictures! So glad you got amazing shows in NZ, you're so lucky you got to see them 5 times! Thanks for sharing:nice: Thanks for the Youtube links and audio guys! U2 love for everyone:heart:
