One of the bigger concerts in Calgary history was U2 in 2001 on the elevation tour (first show sold out in minutes and they added a second). I still have a bootleg audio copy of the second night from Limewire that I transferred to an iPod that I still have. Went to search for it again and to my amazement there's a video version on youtube. So ****ing cool.

Something so nostalgic and neat about seeing it after all these years. A true excited crowd with no one holding phones in a very old saddledome. If you feel like going through it I'd suggest the opening elevation and beautiful day, along with All I want is you leading into Where the Streets have no name. Sunday Bloody Sunday and I will follow along with One are awesome too. Definitely check out the last song Walk on. Never cared too much for the song, but loved seeing that old school concert end where he says "thank you Calgary!" near the end of the song and people immediately people start throwing signs and **** at the stage and a dude tries to run on stage.
