|  | FOR THE ONE WHO LOVES THE U2S
Any mastodontic stage can compete with the spectacular natural scenography of the Red Rocks Amphiteatre in Denver (Colorado) place that has entertained one of the most meaningful concerts of a band that you/he/she has written an indelible page of the history of the rock. A show that has marked the passage of the U2s from promising band to band of cult, thanks to an unforgettable performance characterized by an emotion behind the other. The concert does it departs some long initiated walk after the album War, the job as that the group of Dublino has projected among the greatest realities of the panorama international passages graces without time "Sunday Bloody Sunday", "New Year's Day" and "40", correct to quote the most famous. And it is really in the suggestive arena of Red Rocks that the passages of War, loads of anger but at the same time full of hope, they find their ideal surface under the brightness of the torches placed among the rocks of the Colorado.
The four on the stage is few more than boys, make some impetuousness and not of the technique their point of strength, allowing to shine through that genuineness that only of the twenty-year old ones can have. Larry Mullen Jr. it beats as a damned on the battery and says the times as a veteran on the march of "Sunday Bloody Sunday" that the charismatic Bono announces with the following words "This Song is not to rebel song.this Song is Sunday Bloody Sunday", making to wave the stage, that will assist to a version stratosferica of one of the passages hinge of the U2s and the rock, that directly seems gone out of the flames of the hell. And it is really on the notes of her "accursed Sunday" that the concert touches its apex, with the violent leader that waves a white flag among the public tuning up the words "No Blackberries, No Blackberries", with a voice suffered that he/she remembers the victims of the attack of Derry and he/she asks hopelessly the peace for Ireland always lacerated by deep divisions. And the desire of unity also echoes in the epic one "New Year's Day" where a still shaven The Edge, after having "stolen" the microphone to Bono in "Seconds", it manages him as a veteran between the plan and the slide guitar.
The emotions however don't come only from the passages of War, but also from songs of the first two albums as the powerful one "Out Of Control" (first individual of the band in absolute) or the melancholy one "October", without skipping the fantastic b-sides (and what b-side comes us to say!) "Party Girl" and "11 O'clock Tick Tock." And it is impossible to forget the twisting one "Gloria", that has been trace of opening of the second disk and the mini cd live "Under to Blood Red Sky" (what it picked up really the best of the "War Tour"), where the riccioluto Clayton "it maltreats" to fury of slap his/her lower part.
Of sure there is who will prefer the U2s in their more mature dress, in the period of "The Joshua Tree Tour" or in that iper-technological of the "Zoo Tv Tour" but it is certain that the Irishmen would never have become great live without having found the consecration in this series of concerts mozzafiato, of which Red Rocks remains the symbol for excellence, in which the band has begun to hypnotize the insane one of the whole world thanks to its particular magnetism that has contributed to spread with rapidity in the whole globe his/her own legend.
