And I suspect everyone in London heard us sing it. New Year's Day (Possibly THE highlight of the show. (And Bono proved he sure can PLAY GUITAR like a guitar hero, even.) Last Night On Earth (Bono - "this isnt the last night on earth its the first night in THE stadium.") I Will Follow - you should have heard us!!! 72,000 people (sold-out and packed up to the rafters) all shoulder to shoulder - even the seats around the standing-only pitch were standing!- and singing so LOUD and IN UNISON that Bono was awed by us. If you've never been to a concert at Wembley it will be hard for you to appreciate what a huge factor this is. And the thing that really made it? IT WAS AT WEMBLEY. I suspect it was one of - if not THE BEST - POPMART to date.
(That word again.) And Bono's voice was as good as i have ever heard it. The set was sonically superb: The sound was crisp and STORMIN'. Then came the moment we had all been waiting for "4 boys from Dublin". My preconceptions were misfounded and to quote a friend of mine, he was STORMIN'. I must say that, after some of the comments made about the Howie "interval" in this group, i was not particularly looking forward to this. But this was ok i liked AudioWeb more than he did. I thought they were ok - my husband liked them more than i did. But when you talk does every second word have to be "f*ck".? The 1st support act were AudioWeb a solid "manchester" band. It's 1.10am and i have just got home after Wembley. Wembley Popmart concert, August 22 & 23, 1997
