last year we took a walk from anthony's parents house
and entered the spaceship...er, vanderbilt's stadium
u2 was absolutely amazing. which doesn't surprise anyone i'm sure :-) but since they ARE my favorite band, there were several especially special moments for me...the one where bono began singing "amazing grace" and a stadium full of people joined in (in harmony, as nashville is prone to do :-).
the one where a blind guy requested a song during the encore and bono brought him up on stage, handed him his guitar to play it on ...and after he was finished bono told him to keep the guitar (!).
there were some of my favorite songs played and many just plain amazing moment.
and there was anthony's and my favorite moment, where bono ended a song by singing the word "blessings" over and over and waved them over the crowd.
they say that u2 concerts are spiritual experiences. that night i found out why.
we can't wait for our next one!
*all photos in this post were taken either with my camera or by anthony's aunt sherrie who also had kick-awesome seats on the other side of the stadium and therefore had different angles :-)
