I'd say:

1. Vertigo The best in sound (LPCM Stereo and DD 5.1 and DTS included) and the best in video.
2. Slane Castle
3. Popmart

I salute you,

I would say either Vertigo from Chicago, great sound and a great set or Zoo TV from Sydney-great set-the peak of their career.

Also Live from Paris wasn't that bad, it's just the sound quality was less better than the ones above, but a great set.

My personal favorite is the Slane one, though I haven't seen them all.

I'm confused.

First, in this thread for the first time ever I see Seb really defending Bon Jovi, kind of.

Second, I'm surprised about the dislikement (is there such word?) against U2. I've never been their biggest fan, but had my phases and own almost everything by them, but I thought their releases in this decade where among their best. In fact, the albums that I listen to the most are "All That You Can't Leave Behind" and "How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb". They just have great songs, while I really couldn't get into "No Line On The Horizon" yet.

From what I've heard on the Boston DVD (Elevation tour) Bono's voice was quite good and the concert amazing. When I saw that DVD I swore to myself to see them live on the next tour. Didn't get tickets then, and this time I don't bother as it's just too expensive, I study abroad and prefer travelling right now. But I'm sure they have more than 15 decent songs to put on a great show (at leas I would come up with more), from all I've seen they create a great atmosphere during their shows. For instance, the Milano concert that came with "18 Singles" special edition blew me away.

On a sidenote to Seb, "Beautiful Day" is a great song, many people I know really like this, and I would love to hear it live. Among with many other newer songs. I mean, take "Kite" or "In A Little While" alone, or "Miracle Drug"...

I agree: Ticket prices are insane, Bono's praching is annoying, there is a tendency to overrate them. Yes, they did some crap in the 90s, but anyway I find songs I like. Lately I listened to the remix of "Discoteque" from The Best Of 1990-2000 and for the first time I loved the song, cool riff.
