Performance

The band's in a great mood, especially Bono seems to have a lot of fun that day, making jokes and comments, eg ''The Edge has been given me some guitar lessons... it doesn't seem to be of any good...'' ("People Get Ready"), and bringing a lot of power and real devotion into his perfomance.

Also Edge, Adam and Larry are playing greatly and in perfect sounding condition, so to speak .

The concert doesn't start with "Where The Streets Have No Name" which was the usual opener, but with the cover "Stand By Me". The rest of the concert then had a typical setlist for the Joshua Tree Tour.


Sound

The sound of the bootleg is remarkably great regarding age and it being an audiecen recording: fresh and rather clear, and making you feel like you're standing right in the crowd, feeling all the energy.


Recording: Audience microphone - 4.5 stars

Audience

The crowd is nothing less but amazing! It greatly sings along with the band from the first to the last song, with setting highlights during "Stand By Me", "C'Mon Everybody" (!!!), "Sunday Bloody Sunday", "Pride (In The Name Of Love)", "Party Girl" and "40".

Overall

I consider this one as my fave bootleg from the Joshua Tree Tour, mainly for the fact of the crowd being so fantastic and the sound quality which makes you feel as if you're really among people in the crowd.
The band's performance is overall a real treat, too: no noticable mistakes in playing and Bono being on fire makes this show a musthave.

Fave songs from this bootleg:
- "C'Mon Everybody" (Bono's introduction, crowd singing along greatly)
- "People Get Ready" (funny Bono, fan plays guitar)
- "Sunday Bloody Sunday (very 'motivated' Bono, great crowd singing)
- "The Electric Co." (awesome snippet!)
- "Bad" (this song is always a highlight in a concert)
- "With Or Without You" (you gotta love the snippets)
- "Party Girl" (great snippet, great crowd once again, funny Bono)
