They are usually well worth seeing in concert even if it is more of a show than a gig these days.
Have seen them 6 or 7 times and they are different every time, but always well worth the money.

The thing with U2 is they are one of the few bands on the 'stadium' circuit who can carry it off. IMO they are far better live than on their recordings (that's not to say their recordings are bad) and hence I usually try and se them on each tour they do.
Pop Mart was not their last tour if I remember correctly - the last one was done in the round (I saw them at MEN Arena in Manchester). There is a DVD of the tour (Elevation I think it's called) which is excellent. This was also the tour where Bono's father died half way through and he said that continuing the tour helped him come to terms with his father's death as the fans lifted his spirits at every venue.
