Performance:
Alright, I might be incredibly biased on this one, since this is the only show I've ever been to, but the performance at this show was simply flawless. I noticed 2 lyrical flubs by Bono (Amazing Grace, Walk On), but those were very minor mistakes in an otherwise flawless show. Seriously. It's amazing. Everyone was spot on the whole night.
Audience:
This part is only rated, not commented on.
Sound:
I went back and forth about the sound on this one. As you know, I had some problems with the soundboard-iiness of the last show, but this one is just a LITTLE too audience-y for my tastes. There's got to be a happy medium, right? I found it pretty annoying that you could hear specific audience members screaming or shouting "Woooo!" all the way through show, many times drowning out the instruments or the vocals. That's my biggest beef with the sound on this boot. I can't really comment on Casper's upgrade vs. the original files, since I haven't listened to that source in a while. There were times where the sound was a little tinny for my tastes, but the mix of the instruments was good, there was decent bass, and no real moments of distortion, which I attribute to Casper's remaster. Thanks, Casper!
Overall:
Performances of the whole band. Unbelievably good.
Bono's falsetto on "In A Little While" was the best I've ever heard. Hit every note perfectly.
Discotheque - Please guys, bring this one back.
Staring at the Sun snippet - Fits into the end of Discotheque perfectly.
Sweetest Thing - This song wasn't in setlists for very long, but good while it lasted.
The "Joey Ramone" set. One- Amazing Grace - I Remember You - Walk On.....very touching, very well excecuted.
