excitement mounts: U2's 360 Tour

I've already been privvy to copious amounts of U2 concert information. I've seen pictures on my cell and FB. But, I have to say that the set list has been the most exciting. We'll see if the Raleigh concert is different than the Barcelona, won't we? This will be my first U2 concert.

Here are some sights and sounds from opening night of the 360 Tour in Barcelona, Spain.
Setlist:
1. Breathe
2. No Line On The Horizon
3. Get On Your Boots
4. Magnificent
5. Beautiful Day
6. I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For
7. Angel Of Harlem / Man In The Mirror (snippet) / Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough (snippet)
8. In A Little While
9. Unknown Caller
10. The Unforgettable Fire
11. City Of Blinding Lights
12. Vertigo
13. Crazy Tonight
14. Sunday Bloody Sunday
15. Pride
16. MLK
17. Walk On
(Encore – Desmund Tutu speech plays leading into Streets)
18. Where The Streets Have No Name (With the red lights again! )
19. One – MESSED UP>> restart *
(Short break)
20. Ultraviolet
21. With or Without You
22. Moment of Surrender

I'm tired, but relaxed. I have a lot of work, but that's not overwhelming me. I've lost five pounds (very Bridget Jones of me). And, the crush I thought I'd snuffed out has reignited. C'est la vie. This time next week I'll be in Vancouver.
