Performance:
The band is excellent throughout, even though Bono's voice is completely shot.
Audience:
The audience is really good, helping Bono sing.
Sound:
This is where it goes bad. It's really poor, rendering what would be a good boot useless.
Overall:
For collectors only.

Performance:
It pains me to say it, but it's really terrible. I don't know if they needed more rehearsal time or what, but having listened to over 120 bootlegs of this band playing together, this is close to the bottom of my list. Edge doesn't play certain parts during New Years Day and has minor flubs here and there, Bono's voice is clearly in utterly poor condition- I think he was VERY ill- and Larry even has a few slips here and there. It's hard to judge Adam.
Audience:
They're really fantastic for supporting Bono with such a shit voice. They help sing for him and still have a blast.
Sound:
Pretty good for a JT bootleg; nothing extraordinary, but decent.
Overall:
I'll never revisit this show. Highlight was Maggie's Farm, in all honesty- usually it's "Bad", but Bono really botched that one with his voice. I feel bad for him, because he wasn't even achieving tone at that point- he would go for the high parts, and nothing would come out- you could just hear the airiness. I was relieved when the show was over; I felt terrible for Bono.
