Performance

Brilliant performance, they were certainly on fire this night, they nailed almost every song (except for With Or Without You), they especially nailed Crazy Tonight, Moment Of Surrender, Beautiful Day (with lovely 'Blackbird' snippet), Unknown Caller, Unforgettable Fire, City Of Blinding Lights, No Line On The Horizon, Where The Streets Have No Name, Vertigo...

Bonos voice was top notch. Ultra Violet was great too although the sound of the guitar kicks a little too late in in the intro.

Sound

Very good for a audience bootleg, especially the B!igGirl Remaster, only Edge's guitar could have been a bit louder during the chorusses of NLOTH.
Recording: "CS Stealthy Cardioid - R09-HR" - 3.5 stars

Audience

Amsterdam always delivers a great audience, and it was a mixed audience with people from everywhere (Germany, Portugal, France, Belgium, even Americans). And I was in it too.

Overall

Hightlights:

Almost every song, especially the songs mentioned before.

Lowlights: Can't really think of anyone but WOWY, Bono was obviously saving his voice for the almighty Moment Of Surrender.
