2 weeks ago...

---Togama---

More than two weeks have gone but my thoughts are still at U2 concerts in Berlin. How to describe it? I will try...
First of all I need to explain, cause some people were asking: why two concerts? Because it is such a good feeling, that you want to feel it again and again. I will never forget the happiness after the first one, when I was thinking: omg it was soooo amazing and I will see the same tomorrow! :)
Why was it so amazing? The first thing: the guys from U2 are perfect in playing music. Moreover they aren't playing only big hits, they simply make a spectacle. The spectacle full of interesting visualizations, full of amazing stories, full of awesome moments. Their every tour give us something different. But when I think about last one in 2009-2010, I remember many complains from fans. A lot of people were saying that U2 is so far away from their fans, that they play always the same songs, only the biggest and the most boring hits. I also heard opinions, that money is the only matter important for them.
This time everything changed. First of all: U2 is playing only small concerts, not so expensive for the fans. They play two or sometimes more gigs in one city with different setlists and they try to remind us older songs. What's better, they are as close to the audience as it is possible. Just look how close:

So when you are on the U2 concert, you always have good view, cause the stage is at the centre of arena, and each part of the audience has the moment when they are close to the band. What is more, during this tour Bono every time takes one person from the audience - some of this lucky people play on guitars, some sing to a microphone with Bono. And always, the fan on the stage is responsible for making a video with a U2 smartphone - then whole audience can see it on big screens, and also, this video is streamed live online. That's how the old U2 is using new technologies! :)


What about the amazing stories, what about the spectacle... Yes, for me every song had right place at this concerts. U2 is telling us a story about them, from the beginning of their music journey which started in Dublin. This story is connected with the last album, where Bono was singing a lot about his childhood and places where he grown up. So the first part of the concert is full of songs from the early years of the band. Songs from first albums are mixed with songs from the last one and believe me... this is awesome mixture, full of energy and good guitar riffs, just look and listen :


Second Berlin concert had place exactly in the day when U2 was celebrating the 39th anniversary - can you feel it??? Omg I was crying there :) I think everyone in the arena was feeling this special atmosphere, and now I can only wait for their concerts in 2016 - can you imagine the 40th anniversary at some concert, maybe in Poland? Please Bono, please come to us then!

Ok... calm down Togama, still a lot of stories to tell... So... after energetic beginning we could hear the songs from new album, Bono was talking about his mother, who died when he was a teenager. For her he wrote a song called "Iris". I love this song and for me it was a special moment at the concert, maybe because I can share Bono's feeling at this case. Next songs were telling us a stories about the Ireland and places which are important for the band. The most amazing was raw version of "Sunday bloody sunday" with Irish impressions and visualizations, omg... I watch it now and I have goosebumps again...


The first part of the concert was finished with my favorite song, "Until the end of the world". I love this record and I think, it always sounds good at the concerts, but this time... it was the best version I've ever heard! and video effects on the big screen were really astonishing, I had a feeling that it is real end of the world...


After "Until the end of the world" the band stepped down from the stage for a little break and in this while audience could hear changed version of "The Fly" - also amazing! Big screen was looking like a Berlin Wall, which was destroyed by the band in the next song. After it we could listen to many older songs, for me the best was the moment, when Bono was singing "Even Better Than The Real Thing":



Next songs gave us many important messages from the band, Bono was talking a lot about the world's problems, for example refugees and war at some countries - especially "Bullet the blue sky" when Bono was singing through big megaphone... So many amazing moments, now it's hard to tell about them all!
I think I must stop now, cause I will never end this post :)

U2 is in good form, really, I recommend their concerts to all sceptics who say that this band is over. Really, Bono and his company are making f***ing amazing shows! and I promise, if you taste it once, U2 will steal your heart. So... now let's cross fingers for some Polish concerts :) See you there!
