ACHTUNG BABY!

After a one-year delay, U2 finally made it to the campus stadium in Minneapolis, one of the last stops on their 360° tour. A great chance for all three of us to listen to some of the world's most famous songs only a few miles from our house. Achtung, baby boy, listen up!

The monstrous 360° stage, Interpol, the warm-up band...

... the 3 of us


... and over 60,000 other people.

Balloons are fun, but where's U2?

Here they come!!

Let the show begin!

Bono & Co sure know how to entertain a crowd. Some religious metaphors, their own famous tunes, a breathtaking light- and soundshow, a little bit of megalomania and a few cheesy lines - who would be immune to that?



She moves in mysterious ways.




Some things only Bono can pull off: A message from astronaut Mark E. Kelly, the husband of Arizonan Congresswoman Gabby Gifford who was shot in the head earlier this year. What did he say? "It's a beautiful day."

And of course a song for Amy Winehouse: Stuck in the moment. RIP, Amy!

Thank yous and goodbyes. What an awesome show! Thank you too, U2!
