Performance

My first ever U2 show review! YAY!! *coughs* Anyway, this was clearly an emotional show since late INXIS singer and close friend to Bono Michael Hutchence died a few days prior to this show. And considering Bono's tight friendship with him, he was clearly emotional. As wad the band, since they all play here in top, peak form, their performance only boosted with the knowledge of Michael's passing. A bit of mess-ups here and there (at the end of Mofo) but it's to be expected.

Sound

You can hear the band play but without raising your volume levels it's a bit hard to hear, especially since the quality of this show, while not bad, is a bit... Fuzzy.
Recording: Audience microphone - 4 stars

Audience

The audience reaction is good but seemingly quiet. But good.

Overall

Apart for the fuzzy sound, it's still a great show. It was especially touching before the beginning of "One" that Bono say a few words from him in tribute and I think you hear two audience members say "we'll miss you Michael". I also thought Bono singing "MLK" was very moving.

Highlights:
Mofo
Pride
Still Haven't Found / Never Tear Us Apart snippet
Please / Streets
