Camburizinho, Brazil

After Ubatuba, and on our way back to Sao Paulo, Jana invited us to stay at her family’s beach house in Cambury (Camburizinho). Gorgeous place, and iconic beach. It was the perfect place to relax and take in the coastal atmosphere I so dearly missed. The food was really good and I loved the fact that there were no tourists (other than ourselves) in sight. I look forward to going back to Brazil for the World Cup!

10 Years Ago Today - July 30, 2011. An epic #U2360 Tour closer in Moncton, New Brunswick. More of an event than a concert. Reuniting with family and friends around the world, camping, lobster cookout with fans at the camp, biblical rainfall in the queue, @ArcadeFire opening, heartfelt rendition of Stay (Faraway, So Close), and first and last appearance of ‘40’ on the tour. Having seen @U2 33 times on this tour, Moncton will always have a deep rooted positive memory in me.

Ten years ago today - São Paulo, Brasil.

This concert easily slots into my top 5 #U2 concerts that I’ve experienced. Getting here started right after the #U2360 Perth show back in December 2010. My friend Jana (who was from São Paulo) encouraged Martijn and I to get to Brasil later that April and she’d take care of GA tickets for us. A few months later, I landed in São Paulo where the ever-present Cathal McCarron picked me up from the airport and took me to Jana’s place to drop off my stuff and depart with Amp, Colleen, Martijn, and Jana to go to the first São Paulo show. It was the morning of the show and there were at least 10,000 fans already lined up. We enjoyed the first two concerts near the soundboard and were thrilled to hear the debut of Zooropa. It was for the third concert where Amp and I queued up overnight in the rain and eventually made it to the front for the last concert. There are several memories that stand out for me during that show – reuniting with GA friends in a faraway land and meeting new friends, Muse opening as the warm-up act – they were electric, fans dancing on the floor during the pre-show music, Brasilian samba artist Seu Jorge joining the band to perform a Kraftwerk cover of Das Model, and Bono being frightened by a giant insect sitting on his microphone during Moment of Surrender. If you listen to the bootleg, you’ll hear him: “My body's now a begging bowl that's begging to get back, [son of a BITCH!]” the moment he opens his eyes and sees the giant bug. Unforgettable.

Concert favourite lists are highly subjective. Personally, this show stood out because of the concert itself as well as everything else that happened around the concert while there: Going to Ubatuba with Jana and Colleen to surf, enjoying feijoada and a Brasilian steak house for the first time, and going to a local community centre to dance and listen to traditional music.

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind always be at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
and rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

May good luck be with you wherever you go, and your blessings outnumber the shamrocks that grow.

May your days be many and your troubles be few,
May all God’s blessings descend upon you,
May peace be within you,
May your heart be strong,
May you find what you’re seeking wherever you roam.

May you have the hindsight to know where you’ve been the foresight to know where you’re going and the insight to know when you’re going too far.

14 Years ago today - one of the greatest #U2 concerts I have seen - in Honolulu, Hawaii for the Vertigo Tour closer.

I had just presented a paper for my last grad school class of the semester and then flew to Hawaii that afternoon and joined the queue. Surfing legend Laird Hamilton was beside us in the GA pit.

Pearl Jam opened the show, as well as Rocko and the Devils (Rocko being one of U2’s long standing crew members). There was a spontaneous, yet interesting version of Wild Horses. Billie Joe Armstrong from Green Day and Pearl Jam’s Eddie Vedder were guest performers. Absolutely loved hearing Window in the Skies live for the first time. I never thought I’d visit Hawaii, but fell in love with the islands immediately and have returned seven times since. Paradise.
