Vertigo - U2 @ The Sphere, Las Vegas 29 Sep 2023

[@OddOneOut665]

3:30 All these years, and he still does the YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH part flawlessly. Trey and Matt would be proud of him. XDXDXD

[@mat2093]

Matt stone and trey parker?

[@brianingell3174]

quite a few comments about U2 maybe not being polished somehow but no matter. the Sphere was the true star tonight. mind blowing at all levels.....

[@JohnLoughney]

If people want a perfect performance, stay home and listen to the album!!

[@brettymike]

Missing keyboards left a big hole....hell of a shame it wasn't a full band...

[@monolithe2812]

Out of all the songs U2 play, this song should've had the craziest visuals but they didn't even bother. C'mon Willie Wiliams! Utilize that billion dollar LED screen to its potential! & bring back Larry!

[@jamestonkin8610]

Oh dear

[@JohnLoughney]

They should have had a virtual Larry, lol ...

[@monolithe2812]

@@JohnLoughney Exactly, it doesn't feel quite right without Larry and they should show more visuals of the band. It seems like U2 is secondary to the venue. Show U2 on that screen for all their glory. Comedian Bill Burr even agrees

[@bryansakacs9100]

That must have been amazing ! What a venue and background -and U2 well there are Rock royalty

[@dirksteiger9737]

By the way: Miss you Larry. Recover soon. U2 is just U1 without you. ❤

[@faithhofeldt2283]

They sound amazing. This looks like an amazing show

[@dirksteiger9737]

Couldn't wait to see the first live views from inside and the premiere show. Looks amazing. But. Isn't the technology dominating the music? For sure it's stunning to see them on that kind of a screen. And the art work is really fantastic. But I miss the passion. The real heart. The real U2 fans that can't afford a stay in Vegas and ticket prices like that. 22 years ago my friend Martin and I went to the Waldbühne in Berlin to see them. Just a rusty old stage in the middle of a forrest looking like a tent. Old grandstand like an antique amphitheatre for around 20.000 people. A little similar to the sphere. But. Real sky instead of movies. Real birds. Real atmosphere. Real people. Real music. So basic. For me the ideal surrounding to enjoy their music and live performance. They didn't need all that stuff to be on top of the music world. I really don't no what to think about the residency yet. Might be worth it. Just for comparison. Must think about it. Worst thing: Smartphones all over the place instead of clapping hands and atmosphere. May be I am to old for this. May be the younger generation will see it as the future of live performance. But my first impression: Waldbühne was not the sphere - but had the (atmo)sphere. Nothing is even better than the real thing. What's your first impression?

[@Metalfansrk]

I gotta agree. Really cool and prob a great experience but I feel like there was a certain energy missing. I have seen these guys live and definitely different experience in this place. I didn’t love the set list. Felt like they should have killed it with better songs. Their catalog has so many better songs. The art work was amazing but man, Joshua tree wasn’t there - come on!

[@louissaraiva2296]

Thanks for posting, I have tickets for December. I’ve seen U2 on every tour . 😊

[@farmerjimmy7453]

If u like U2 u will enjoy them where ever they play simple 👍

[@dirksteiger9737]

@@Metalfansrk Joshua tree just a few hours drive away - would fit perfect into the set list. Totallly agree. Just saw another video from the 400er blocks up under the "sky". Felt better. Because there are the more affordable seats. Let's give it a try. We will see. Have a good day man. Times are changing and that's the way it goes. 👋

[@BatfinksWings]

​@@MetalfansrkI've seen U2 live about 15 times and this looks too static for me, U2s live shows are dynamic and they're all over the stadium and arena, here they're limited to a small stage. Sure the screen is amazing but I think the performance is lost by its limitations.

[@mexicanbeaches1]

So excited be at the Dec 16th show with my best friend

[@thenamelessavenger]

Noticeably different grooveprint with Bram, but he's pulling off a Herculean achievement with these shows. It still sounds great, even if it isn't completely familiar.

[@danjeu330]

de retour en live sa fais du bien de la bonne musique le groupe u2 de bon souvenire merci bono

[@High_Voltage_Rock]

The show needs more breaks between 6 or 7 songs. Bono sounded a little tired during the encore and this song particulary needs more energy.

[@SugarW1thC0ffee]

I agree

[@Giuseppe-fv9dr]

I was at the Zoo TV concert at Earls Court in London any, many years ago. Best one ever but I think the Sphere may top it.

[@lordblur7674]

pink floyed needs to be their

[@JohnLoughney]

They could do some crazy things there ...

[@johnsanders6695]

👍👍👍 Great song!

[@DREWDOWN3]

Aww, I was hoping to feel vertigo watching that set. But probably a hazard if they did. lol

[@viniciuschagas17]

Adam still into the main riff in the last Chorus

[@hamburger33hhich88]

usa is so nice so amazing it is faantastic woooooow i thing wahts going on wen play the movi starwars inside sphare space battle czene

[@gargallant9811]

What a drag to have the tech on the stage repeatedly to hit a pedal for Edge. He even tells him to do it and comes out again to do it. Get it together

[@YR360echannel]

Relax tix drop day of show 200 300

[@r2d417]

Imagine Michael Jackson History tour in Sphere

[@neobx2]

Did Edges guitar cut out

[@hellomiami4012]

Yes, and both he and Adam got the outro completely out of whack 😂

[@JohnLoughney]

he broke a string

[@gargallant9811]

No he needed to go back to his board to hit an effect. Tech did it for him finally

[@neobx2]

@@gargallant9811I wonder why Dallas didn’t hit the effect from his under the stage set up.

[@alessandrodelpierojuventus8156]

Excellent, thank you for this,but you should have filmed further, so that the entire circumference can be seen, as we know the formation

[@YR360echannel]

Go to Vegas do it yourself stop telling people what to do

[@JohnLoughney]

There's night two coming up :)

[@afelv81]

Ffs

[@chatter7653]

My impression the sphere is amazing and U2 is….not quite as amazing lol…they are older , so you have to cut some slack , but for the whole show , Bono sounded tired. The Edge was on point as ever though. It was a great intro to the possibilities of the sphere for sure

[@RSfandude]

missed the chance to use some graphics like in the official music video, wasted opportunity.

[@baggy79]

From what ive seen we need Larry back ASAP

[@Elfutre1957]

Can you explain the difference between the 2 drummers?

[@DerekObrien-tk7we]

Drums are off d a bit ya need.larry

[@deanzona6503]

c'mon, you don't just replace a drummer and keep going.

[@jamestonkin8610]

You clearly don't read, have any idea just dumbly comment.

[@cantbesure0714]

lame crowd.

[@taeminusone]

The crowd seems kinda lethargic. I wonder if it's like being in the worlds largest Imax theater but with a live band.

[@Jeanninecomeau]

They didn't play their greatest hits and instead filled the gap with low energy "folk" songs. Wrong venue for that. They should have played every one of their best songs.
