From where I was sitting, it sounded like I was listening to the concert through very cheap speakers with the sound turned all the way up. The distortion and fuzz were horrible.<BR/><BR/>I guess after *camping out* all night in 40-degree weather outside of Boutwell, I'd not only hoped for better seats but for a better experience. Glad someone enjoyed it!<BR/><BR/>Nevertheless, Bono still rocks majorly.Geek Girl Blondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07754789938656558612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8587670.post-1130345031612218242005-10-26T11:43:00.000-05:002005-10-26T11:43:00.000-05:00Just came across this post, and it's funny because...Just came across this post, and it's funny because I've been finding myself the odd man out on this topic lately. Since ZooTV was my first opportunity to see U2, I loved that show. The whole experience, even Legion Field, was otherworldly to me. I thought Public Enemy was amazing as well. <BR/><BR/>However, I have a good friend who recently took me to see them at Madison Square Garden for my birthday, and she said that she hated the ZooTV tour and albums so much that she stopped listening to them for a long time. But, I suppose if you saw the Unforgettable Fire tour, maybe ZooTV was a little daunting. <BR/><BR/>I guess I'm just less selective about the works of artists I really love. I don't care if they don't do what I wanted them to. I try to figure out why they did what they did, and love it that way. Maybe that's silly though.<BR/><BR/>Great post. Bono never fails to impress me.Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11131348843688523415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8587670.post-1128702157635286252005-10-07T11:22:00.000-05:002005-10-07T11:22:00.000-05:00I also saw Pink Floyd there during the Division Be...I also saw Pink Floyd there during the Division Bell tour.

And the "hanging the Klansman" theatrical stunt during Public Enemy's show freaked me out.<BR/><BR/>Not only are the acoustics CRAPPY at Legion Field, the place didn't get nearly as full as it should have.Geek Girl Blondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07754789938656558612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8587670.post-1128688186507716062005-10-07T07:29:00.000-05:002005-10-07T07:29:00.000-05:00I was at that concert in '92.

After being forced to sit through Public Enemy's set, I was really looking forward to something amazing and it just didn't happen. Bono seemed a little too wasted to be bothered with connecting with the audience. <BR/><BR/>Don't get me wrong, it was a good show, but just not what I had expected. I hope I get a chance to see them again in a smaller venue. Legion Field was a little big I think.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
