Performance

Great show. I have the cd of this show from the fan club. Its one of only 2 shows (ZooTV Sydney being the other ) U2 have released on cd and is available from the fanclub only. This is a GREAT show .NYD ,Out Of Control and of course Kite are standouts here. Bono's dad had just died a couple of weeks before this show. You can see from the DVD how emotional Bono is singing Kite. The whole show is fantastic. I only wonder why they waited 2 years after the show was recorded to release it ?

Sound

I downloaded this bootleg to see what it would sound like.Its brutal.I deleted it from my computer immediately.I have the double live cd of this show and the DVD.I would advise you if you dont have the cd released version you should try and get a copy off ebay. I see the live cd on there for sale quite often. Or try to rip the audio from the DVD.
Recording: "Bittersweet Eternity" aka "Turn Each Song Into A Prayer" - 3 stars

Audience

The audience on the cd and dvd are great.

Overall

My rating here is of the shows I have on DVD and cd .The standout songs are : Kite, NYD, Out Of Control, Walk On ,One, All I want Is You .Very emotional show. The band put on a great show on their home turf .The performance and audience are great. Only the shows after 9/11 at Notre Dame and MSG in October beat this.
Lows of the bootleg: Everything. The sound from this bootleg is brutal. All I could hear was people yelling over the muddled music in the background .It almost sounded as if the recording is of the audience and NOT the band. It is a shame because this is a great show.
Get the DVD and rip it to audio.
