No Line on the Horizon

Camp Nou stadium, Barcelona, 30.06.2009

U2 360 World Tour starts here, playing a lot of new songs from their new album and quite some of their previous hits.

It has been 12 years since I last saw them live, my last time was on 1997, also in Barcelona, during their "Popmart" world tour.

This time not only the sound but also the whole scenery has been outstanding, as always. I entered in the stadium around 18.30 and the show did not start until 2 hours later, this allowed me to take a good position in the crowd to take some nice pictures and videos to share with you today. So close! :)

Snow Patrol, the band that opened the show before U2 came into the scenery was great too. I did not really know this band until they sang some of their most famous songs that I surely had heard in the radio before.

The crowd came however all at once when Bono, The Edge, Larry and Adam came into the stage.

Their welcoming was warm and something I will never forget. To sing with them, to be their chorus, to share every single second of this 2 hours show has been really a great experience.

The contact with the International Spacecraft live, the song dedicated to the memory of Michael Jackson, the support to Aung San Suu Kyi in Myanmar, Bono singing wearing a FC Barcelona shirt in the end made really a great evening that will last in my memory for ages, till the next chance to see them again comes...

I can start seeing a new line in the horizon for me, the future is approaching brightly, I can feel it, I will breathe again soon...

Thanks to U2 for this wonderful moment!
