Performance:
Very good show.This is the first of 2 great shows in Zurich.Night 2 is one of the greatest by the band.But this is no sleeper.I watched alot of this gig on youtube.I really like Magnificent before BD.But I think NYD or IWF should flip in the second spot each night.Nice version of EBW.Nice tribute before MOS,finally speaking about the 9th anniversary of the 09.11 attacks on America, before the last song of the night. Thanking America for a great life.Well said by Bono.
Audience:
I watched alot of this show on youtube,they sing great during One at this gig.Solid audience.
Sound:
Not big on this recording at all.The audience, is VERY LOUD.The recording is in the background,the crowd yell all over Stingray.Example,Magnificent,the guy is yelling very loud over the WHOLE SONG.After the 10TH YEAHHHHHHH,that made me skip the tune altogether.Same goes for the start of ISHFWILF.The audience,(guy) is louder than Bono during parts of the gig.If he wasnt present,this would be a very good boot.A solid 4.Good effort by the taper.You cant control who stands or sits by you at a gig.Bono is clear,but tin sounding.The whole boot has a tin sound to it.Go with night 2,and you will HEAR a huge difference.
Overall:
The band put on a very good show here,albeit I couldnt enjoy alot of it (loud screams/yells over the band).Another reason why I wish U2 would release live shows on their website.I watched alot of this gig on youtube,and the band were on.I enjoyed MOS.Very moving version.I would love a better recording of this whole show.Maybe in time,we will get one.I just couldnt enjoy the show,not for a lack of performance,too much loud screaming over the band.A shame.As I pointed out,Bonos words before MOS were SPECIAL to me as an American from in NYC,I appreciated it.
