| | U2 - MANCHESTER EVENING NEWS ARENA - August 2001 - The Final Word |
 | | Tonight, in the 8,000ish capacity Manchester Evening News Arena, he’s still a little dot in the distance and I paid almost twice as much this time to see them. |
 | | Even Mulletboy in front of me punches the air, jumps up and down horrendously out of time, claps along at all the wrong moments, and sings incredibly off-key. |
 | | After this unifying moment, the rest of the evening is sort of a letdown, with a thoroughly morbid Wake Up Dead Man, and the actually greatly misplaced Walk On, which, whilst ending the set on a positive note, seems more suitable for first song of the encore time than the grand finale. |
