1980-11-21 - Edinburgh, Scotland - Nite Club

setlist

Performance notes: This is U2's first concert in Scotland and the band achieves a sell-out attendance of 400 people. The setlist is believed to be incomplete; a review in 'The Student' offhandedly mentions "Twilight" and "Shadows and Tall Trees" ("I mean, we can’t have no punks singing all this romantic stuff about childish innocence, “Twilight” and “Shadows and Tall Trees”, can we?"), but it is not certain if they were actually played. If they were then this is the only known performance of "Shadows and Tall Trees" after the release of Boy, and only it's second of the tour.

Performance

We can't tell

Sound

It's pretty bad, and that's an understatement.
Recording: Audience microphone - 0.5 stars

Audience

I'm sure they were loud

Overall

I shouldn't say this, but don't bother with this. Only for completionists (first show in Scotland, btw). We can't hear anything except Larry's drums underwater. It's difficult even to tell which song it is.
