Performance: 




Along with the other two NYC shows, this one is no less inspiring and powerful: given the still tense, raw nature of NY post-9/11, there was no other band or artist more suiting to help heal the broken people of NYC than U2, plus no better tour to experience such healing. On all 3 nights the band gave everything they had as did the audience, but something about this 2nd show in particular where the high level of spiritual emotion and elevation (excuse the pun) is as way up there might make this the peak of thier NYC shows. The whole band is on pure fire here, every note, drumbeat and vocal sung and played until the very last breath, putting their whole performance in this one show. And it shows,
Audience: 




Emotional, excited, ecstatic and elevated (again, excuse the pun), the crowd put their whole selves into the music, not holding anything back.

Performance:
Top of their game.
Audience:
This was right after 9/11 and the songs lifted us up. Amazing
Sound:
Really good. Good mix of the soundboard and audience sources, although at times (for example ANgel of Harlem) the two sources go out of sync and it sounds somewhat double-tracked.
Overall:
I was at this concert. It was my first time back in NYC after 9/11, and you could feel the tension in the air- it was still fresh on everyone's mind. The setlist was perfect- almost every song seemed custom made for the way we were all feeling, or wanted to feel- even the ones written 20 years before. "Streets" was a particular highlight. And during the encore, Bono was wearing a NYPD t-shirt and hat, and all the police officers and firefighters in the house joined him onstage. The house lights were on, everyone was smiling... it was an amazing experience and went a long way to making us feel good again. I'll never forget it, it was the best concert I have ever been to.

Performance:
This is night 2 of the epic 3 night stand by the band at MSG one month after 9/11.I was at the first show on the 24th,the band seem bit more relaxed at this show.Kite,Bad,Streets,One and of course New York & Walk On are some of the best and emotional versions you will hear. An epic,3 night stand that,under the terrible circumstances, will NEVER BE TOPPED.
Audience:
NYC...very emotional crowd..one month after 9/11...that says it all.
Sound:
I have many u2 boots..this sounds amazing..sounds like an actual release.
Overall:
Great, very ,very ,VERY,emotional show.Listen to this gig alone,in a quiet place,and hear the emotion,and tell me you are not moved.If you arent,you dont have a heart.We ,New Yorkers, just lost 3000 Americans.We were hurt,tired,and not in a good emotional state of mind.U2 lifted our spirits.Helped us HEAL.This is U2 at there best.Their finest hour.A MUST HAVE.

Performance:
Just an amazing performance.
Audience:
The chanting of 'Usa, usa' was a bit too much for me, but understandable, just one month after 09/11.. still the crowd was brilliant!
Sound:
The sounds kind of fades in a couple of songs. Still it's amazing. Quality of the sound is perfect. Every part of it, from Bono's voice to Adam's bass is in perfect proportion, so it's not overdone.
Overall:
Amazing performance, with perfect sound. Stand out songs were a brilliant version of New York, a really emotional Kite and an amazing Bad!
