Performance:
The band were on fire. Bono was singing like it was 1987. the Edge was amazing as always Larry Mullin seems well and truly back to his best and Adam Clayton is Adam Clayton.
Audience:
I was here so I know first hand we were singing along jumping around. The energy and atmosphere was like some sort of ultra drug, it was incredible, to be a part of that crowd.
Sound:
The wind sound isn't that bad at all. Apart from the odd bit of distortion the recording is good. I recently downloaded Ballerusk's, brilliant recording definately worth adding to any bootleg collection, it's ggreat to have such a quality recording from a show I was at.
Overall:
The show was beyond magnificent, it can't be described in any words known to man. The whole show was one big highlight. If I was asked to pick some I'd have to say Magnificent, TUF, Streets, the I'll Go Crazy remxi and Moment of Surrebder. I'd like to thank U2 for what is my first concert and so far the Greatest nights of my life. And a fantastic bootleg.

Performance:
Excellent performance. All 4 were on top form
Audience:
Was on the pitch for this concert and atmosphere was electric. Can't really hear the crowd much on this recording though.
Sound:
Sound is, for the most part, excellent. However, there are moments when the wind interferes with the sound (briefly), and as already mentioned, you don't really hear much of the crowd.
Overall:
Overall very good bootleg, only let down by the wind effects on a few occasions.
Just one thing to note. The order of the songs is wrong!. Streets should be numbered 23 and One numbered 24 (Streets is also omitted from the info.txt)!

Performance:
A performance I coudn't appreciate at the time due to so so audio in the seats I had. I could visually see that the band were on super form but couldn't go through it with them as I might have had I been in GA. Recently picked up a DVD of the gig though filmed from a better spot than II was in and I was able to relive the gig. Fantastic all round. Adequate shake up in the setlist from the previous night with Mysterious Ways standing out nicely. Just a great gig, great mood. Particularly love the moment where Bono waves and says 'Hi Edge' when he is out on the catwalk. A great Saturday night
Audience:
Not as loud as i'd have like but i'm picky.
Sound:
Not at all bad. Taper is a little hard on himself. An enjooyable listen.
Overall:
Hard to split this from the other Dublin nights. They gave it their all, enjoyed themselves, great atmosphere. Mysterious Ways was great and everything else was as it should (+ a half)

Performance:
The band come out banging here on a rainy night in Dublin.I really like this show.Its like the old saying goes,a great beginning makes for a great ending.It has a feel for Ireland.The weather,and the shout outs of the different Irish cities at the start of Magnificent.Breathe,NLOTH,Boots,Beautiful Day.Bono is really going the extra mile here.Screaming his ass off .I love the "No Rain!!No Rain!!!" at the end of BD.Very fired up.Love it.Bonos best quote..."Its like a big Irish wedding."
Audience:
Well,this recording shows off the fans.You can hear them,at times too much.But ,they really sound into it.As they should be, for their favorite sons.
Sound:
I went with the Ballerusk's version.Its very good,but Bonos voice is a bit low.And you can hear the crowd OVER the band..quite a bit at times.Just turn the sound up,play with your eq and it is fine.The band played great this night ,so,deal with the loud clappers.
Overall:
The version of City Of Blinding Lights (with the Rain snippet) is great.Then it leads into maybe the hardest version of Vertigo on the tour.The Thunderstruck snippet is appropriate for the rainy evening.The encore is fantastic.Like I said at the start.....a great beginning makes for a great ending.

Performance:
An excellent 360° performance. The band really seems into it, and very excited to be playing back at home, as always.
Audience:
Decent, at the appropriate times. There are a few moments where annoying crowd members can be heard either conversing or shouting something at the band it seems, but they are few and far between. Nobody truly gets in the way of the experience, but the crowd certainly doesn't carry any songs.
Sound:
Again, decent. It was a windy night, so the taper can surely be forgiven- the parts that aren't affected by the wind sound great. But the weather was a factor that night in Dublin, and although the rain only seemed to enhance the atmosphere of the performers, it does tiny damages to the sound here and there. The energy and belief everyone had in that show that night made the slight sound flaws easy to overlook.
Overall:
I was very pleased with this show, moreso than many US dates of 360°, and right up there with the best of the European boots.
Highlights:
-Sunday Bloody Sunday / Rock the Casbah
-Edge's solo in Pride
-Angel of Harlem
-Where the Streets Have No Name (always a highlight, I know, but that night it was crisp and punctuated, the way I believe Edge's guitar in it SHOULD be. Truly a phenomenal performance of Streets- highlight of the show)
Lowlights:
-Breathe seemed a tad rusty this evening
-The end of Vertigo had me very anxious to hear the snippet of "Thunderstruck", and I assumed that Bono would end the song with a prompt and powerful "YOU'VE BEEN THUN-DER-STRUCK!" as Edge hit the last E chord...instead, he just shouted the word "Thunderstruck!" a bunch of times during the "yeah yeah yeah" part. A disappointment, but no reason not to download!
