That must have been fantastic! Great live band and after 5 days on the V and A waterfront last year I can imagine it being a great setting for a gig. Was it in the Cape Town stadium? Any Nelson Mandela rhetoric from Bono?

Good for you ,
I read they are having difficulty filling the stadium the rest of the time though . And that the unfinished bus route to the stadium / bus shelters were under guard cos peeps were trying to live in them. Apparently they had to postpone a SA football league game as power had been knocked out cos of 'cable thieves'
