Performance

They could have been tired at this point after almost 4 months of touring including first month of the long European leg, but I didn’t feel it from the band at all on that day. We were tired too after long queuing before the concert. They even needed to demolish on our eyes part of the wall fencing the Horse Racing Track right before the gig to let thousands of people in. I remember the orange full moon over the stage when the concert ended. That beautiful orange moon looked like part of Popmart sci-fi scenery to me. Magic date.

Sound

Well, it’s really bad. Sound during the concert was fantastic, at least where I was standing. Really fantastic sound that I remember clearly to this day. Too bad this boot is so poor. I’m still hoping that we will get some better recording of this historical concert one day.
Recording: Audience microphone - 1 star

Audience

Very enthusiastic, loving crowd that went seriously nuts during “New Year’s Day”. No wonder for the first U2 concert in Poland.

Overall

My first U2 concert ever, with my then-girlfriend and now-wife for the last 25 years. Amazing concert, never bettered, always on my mind.
