Performance

Band on fire. Nailed the songs in set one, and only got better throughout the second set. Blistering versions of Gloria, Vertigo and I Will Follow. Nice performance of Invisible and Even Better to start the second set. Probably the best version yet of California. Bad (and Moment of Surrender) is a killer, and With or Without You goes well again. Unfortunately Bono messes up the first line of an otherwise nice version of Streets, while 40 has a couple of rare snippets.



Sound

A good audience recording. Not great, not poor. Definitely easy to listen to. No real talkers or screamers and the audience comes through nicely enough.
Recording: Audience microphone - 4 stars

Audience

You only have to listen to The Miracle and Vertigo to see the audience's effort. The crowd sings loudly enough on Bad that Bono takes his earpieces out and stops singing a line to let the crowd sing. Pure class. With or Without You, Pride and 40 also let the crowd shine through.

Overall

Terrific show. A must have from the I&E tour. Probably the first real standout show of the tour from my perspective.

Maybe I'm biased as I attended this show, maybe not. Easily the best U2 show I've seen (of 15 at the end of the US I&E leg). Of all the first leg recordings this is the show I keep gravitating back to. This tour doesn't get much better than this.
