Glad you enjoyed it, sounds like a better finale than Wednesday night.

Maybe they ran a bit long then and got hampered by the strict 10:30 finish ... can't be keeping people up in Brisbane can we ...

Ah ah ... the ever useful 'net provides the answer ...

----------------------------
comment: First 360° Tour show at which Moment Of Surrender is not performed, and hence first 360° Tour show closed by a song other than Moment Of Surrender. Due to the venue's strict 10:30pm curfew, U2 were off stage by 10:27pm after With Or Without You.

Just hope that they are on before Coldplay - because you'll have to put up with that wanker, Chris Martin and co beforehand

I'd imagine they'd either be below Coldplay or playing a seperate night.

I saw Coldplay just as they were rising up on the success of 'Yellow', they were pretty good in a small venue but then they went up themselves a bit.

I'm hoping Pulp will do seperate gigs in town, I'm up for some of that, I saw them a fair few times in the UK, every one a winner.

Gomez are about the only live act worth seeing off that IMO. I didn't mind Pulp in their hay day, but they were shit live. Cocker was always full of himself
