Regardless of how big U2 is -- and where each member stands as a musician, politician, celebrity, or family man -- the four childhood friends always seem to return to their roots. U2 Go Home: Live From Slane Castle marks the joyous return of Ireland's top band at the close of their 2001 Elevation Tour. This DVD, the second video release from the same tour, was filmed in early September at Slane Castle, where U2 previously recorded The Unforgettable Fire. The band's transition from being an opening act in 1981 to a headliner in 2001 helps make this performance special, as does the fact that Ireland had earned a spot in the 2002 World Cup several hours before U2 took the stage. As a result, Live from Slane Castle captures the band at their best, playing a mix of old staples and All That You Can't Leave Behind-era hits to an ecstatic audience that sings along to every word. "Out of Control" sounds as sharp as it did in 1980, and "Beautiful Day" could possibly be the band's best stadium anthem ever. Spending time with this concert package will leave you grinning from ear to ear -- not only because you like U2 -- but because they've convinced you once again that they're the best rock & roll band in the world. [Bonus interactive material, as well as a digitally remastered version of The Unforgettable Fire documentary, is also included in this DVD set. For those who prefer the audio only, an official bootleg was released in 2007 to members of the band's fan club.]
