Sound was bad at the beginning. I watched the whole thing, and loved the two songs by U2. I was excited because I thought it was only going to be Bono!

Tsk, tsk Steph on not keeping up with your U2 fandom

...(I was thinking of you while I was watching Mr. Mullen Jr.

)

I was very proud that they (Bono) included the Palestinians in their invocation of freedom being a universal desire:

"Let freedom ring...This is not just an American dream, also an Irish dream, a European dream, an African dream … an Israeli dream ... and also a Palestinian dream."

That aside, I absolutely loved Jon Bon Jovi's duet with the amazing Betty LaVette. Also impressed with Garth Brooks rendition of American Pie.

Am I the only one that finds using "Pink Houses" a bit ironic given that it's about the inequalities in America?
