Comments: This is an excellent IEM recording, most probably taken from Bono's earpiece. There are no dropouts in this recording. The only error I heard is a slight skip on cd 1 track 12 pos: 00:17. The first show in Sweden feels a little bit too predictable. U2 played a very basic set with hardly no surprises or improvisations. Bono's voice isn't perfect, but he compensated this with an extraordinary effort. He was pumped up with a lot of energy. And the fans were responding very enthusiastic. During "Until the end of the world" Bono pulled up a photographer on the stage and did a little bull fighting but the photographer was really boring and just seemed to want to get down. Bono mentioned that Sweden and Ireland are related (from the Viking age) and something like "We invented you, the Irish invented Sweden..., ...you guys weren't the only ones with boats, you didn't invent boats you know"?!? He also said something in Gaelic and said that the only one in the band who could speak Gaelic was Larry. That's nearly the only moment with some improvisation, besides the long introduction of Stay. After closing the set with Pride, the audience kept singing the "oh oh oh oh", until "Bullet the blue sky" was played. And this is nearly 3 minutes long!
Nevertheless the show is awesome and the band put on a good show.

Performance

Damn, this gig is awesome! The band is in great shape and Bono's voice is in top condition. It might be his best voice ever. Best versions EVER of Stay and One and maybe also Walk On make this a memorable night in Sweden. Kite, Streets, Bad, WOWY, Gone, New York and The Fly are very awesome too.
Elevation, UTEOTW, MW and Pride were not much tough...

Sound

Altough Edge sounds distant occasionally (UTEOTW, MW) it's a worthy 5-star

Audience

I had the Bono earpiece recording, but the audience sounded great! Really good party-animals those Swedish!

Overall

2nd leg was the best leg of Elevation, and this one can truly compete with the first night in Arnhem, a few weeks later. Great performance, great crowd and great sound make this a hidden gem. Worth a listen fellas!

No real downsides, except that some songs are a bit weaker than others..
