  • I had originally planned to go to the LA show but forgot to buy a ticket & the resale was very expensive, I then realized I could cut my Central and South America trip a few days short & fly to Chicago where resale tickets were not too bad.
    You may be wondering how I pulled this off since it was a Yondr concert & people were patroling the aisles checking for people taking pics/video. I am not willing to fully explain it but i have been shooting fan videos of bands since 2001 & back then you had to be sneaky. That experience was handy so for this show I bought a Balcony box seat and suspected it would be a good vantage point to shoot with a well concealed small digital camera
    Everything worked out & i am glad that U2/Bono fans from all over the world are discovering this recording and enjoying it.

    This is something special. Not only in the grand sound of his singing, but in the quick, quiet moments of his speaking. There is a humbleness and understanding here. It helps me find my own soul and I am so grateful to have experienced this here. Thank you for posting.

    Saw him in NY and I’m still in awe at what a magnificent show it was. I thought the Joshua Tree tour was the end all be all but this was a whole new level of greatness . I truly feel lucky to have been at the Beacon on May 3rd . Thank you Bono for doing this for your fans.

    Somehow saw Bono on the 2nd show of this tour at the Orpheum Theatre in Boston last November with 2,700 other lucky fans. What a magical night; best performance I've ever witnessed, the entire audience was literally on the edge of our seats for two hours straight. Still can't believe it.

To anyone who would like a clearer audio, I highly recommend the Audible version of the book, which also includes music and much of the very same content that's in the show. There is also at least one very good audio version in UA-cam, without the video. What a gift to the world Bono's openhearted story was and is.

      As someone who shortsightedly never went to a live show until Sept. 29, 2023 at the Sphere, but who DID go to this Chicago Surrender show and found it transforming, it is reassuring to know that I apparently saved the best til last even though I will always wish I had gone to a concert previously. But I'm making up for it this year and next at the Sphere! Thanks be to God for these amazing musicians, with Bono as the primary, but not the only, spokesperson for this extraordinary band. We who are living in the same time frame that they are have been truly blessed by their gifts and presence in this world along with us.

    It was an amazing show! I was in row 13 on the floor to the right of Bono while looking at the stage. I had no idea the floor had the graphics on it (that it did) as I was looking up at Bono. I really didn't have an issue with our phones being locked up. I think it was hard for some to not think of this as a concert. We had a couple in front of me who kept getting up to dance. It was cute for the first hour, but annoying later in the show. Nice work getting a copy! The recording is marvelous.

    By the way the title of this should read Surrender, not Songs of Surrender (which was the title of U2's CD album released on March 17, 2023). The two projects had some correlation but were not identical. Both were retrospective look-back projects that no doubt helped get many fans primed for the current Sphere shows, wildly successful so far.
