Live From The Rose Bowl (To Everywhere)

25 Oct 2009245
'What time is it in the world and where are we going?' Bono asked after 'Get On Your Boots'. Tonight it was every time on the clock, depended which country you were in as the U2 360°: show went out live on YouTube to millions of viewers on seven continents.

A record-breaking 97,000 fans watched the show live at the Rose Bowl and we've been getting messages from fans all over the world who were enjoying it live online : you were watching in China and New Zealand, in Iran and in North Korea, in Russia and Latin America, in Canada and right across Europe.

From Iceland ('Definitely the greatest economy class I have ever had...') to Peru ('amazing, incredible and exciting...') the whole world seems to have been at the show.

'It's like we are all there at the concert,' said Baadsilver on our Zoootpia live thread 'We ALL have our hands in the air and are singing... crazy tonight for U2.'

Or as one smart Tweet put it, 'This has to be the best U2 concert I have never been to.'

From Breathe to Moment of Surrender, felt like a moment of rock'n'roll history tonight. If you were watching somewhere in the world tonight, why don't you tell us what it was like in the comments box at the bottom of this page - and don't forget to include which COUNTRY YOU WERE WATCHING IT IN.

If you were actually at the RoseBowl post your own review and add your photos on our tour page, or catch the rebroadcast here.

Meantime, even though you know this, here's what they played at the Rose Bowl tonight.

I'm in Glendora, California, and am reliving my experience at last nght's Rose Bowl show...the first time I've ever had a chance to enjoy a concert the next day (and thanks to download, anytime I want). Thanks Bono, The Edge, Larry and Adam for making this California Girl's dream come true last night -- your performance exceeded any expectations. You guys (and your fans) give rock 'n' roll a good name.

I can hear you all the way from North Ca
I just want to say thanks to U2 and U2ube and the staff for both for putting this together for us. What a special treat to be able to be part of a show that has meant to so many people. It was unreal to see where everyone was Tweeting from, and I think what was most special was to for those three two (ish) hours be able to be part of a community that was so much bigger than ourselves, which is exactly what the U2 community is. While I certainly missed the physical experience of being amongst thousands of people, it may have been even better than the real thing ... maybe not. But it was still just incredible to be part of the world's first ever global concert, and it was only fitting for U2 to do it. So thanks guys! You made our nights!

Up all night in Pennsylvania, USA
Thank you U2 for bringing the world together via You Tube - up close and personal! How cool is that!! I was at the concert in Landover, Maryland (Washington, DC) and now at the Rose Bowl via You Tube in the wee hours of the morning. I can't wait until July 2010 - Philadelphia here I come!! This show is seriously amazing in person! The ...CRAZY TONIGHT Remix blew this 50 year old away in DC! And UNKNOWN CALLER, well that just touches my very soul. Thanks again U2 for the ultimate experience. Keep bringing your messages of hope to the world! We love you!! Blessings to you Bono, The Edge, Adam and Larry and to your families! Keep having fun and I'll see you in Philly next year! MAGNIFICENT!

I'm really thrilled, it was an honor to be part of this historical day. thank u very much u2! love u for ever
