Performance

The audience were hoping for a great june evening and the band answererd them with a great show. Thefour boys were on fire, even though Bono lacked some brilliant spices, the ones which mark the difference between the great and the good shows.

The setlist was fucking AWESOME. All Because Of You is the most rock-ish thing they've ever done (06-27 in Dublin also), and the audience loved it. After that, the concert couldn't go better. The Electric Co without The Cry intro always reminds me to the Joshua Tour performances, consequently I love them After that first 3 songs came the usual Vertigo middle set. And then Whos' Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses, which I loved. Running To Stand Stilll is always fantastic, and Bullet was quite inspired too. The Fly and Zoo Station rocked very hard (even though I use to dislike post-1993 The Flies). Yahweh is a great song but doesnt work live, specially in front of 55.000 people (it could work with 4.000 in an arena, but never in a stadium). And second Vertigo's always remind me to my only show attended, so I always like them. It's a great, uplifting ending for a show, the complete opposite of 40 or All I Want Is You. Lovely ending, the audiences always like it


Sound

Like listening underwater.
The whole recording lacked of shining and crispness, but specially Edge and Adam got lost every minute... The beggining of the quiet songs was terrrible, but the rocker ones were not better... Even though audience reported very bad accoustics on the stadium, a recording can be clear and crisp...

Recording: Audience microphone - 3 stars

Audience

Fantastic scottish audience, pleased to rock, clapping, singing along, dancing... The only down was that I slightly felt that some sectors of audience (I pressume the younger audience) didn't know some songs, specially the weird and ancient ones (Electric Co, Wild Horses, even Still Havent Found). Otherwise it couldve been perfect.

Overall

Highlights

All Because Of You, Running To Stand Still, Vertigo2


Overall

There are far better Vertigo shows, but this one is a good souvenir. Moreover, Im always pleased to listen U2 in Scotland
