Performance

Great performance, lots of spontaneous stuff. Three highlights: Wire, an amazing long version with two snippets as well. Bad, a 13+ minute version. And finally, Knockin' On Heaven's Door, a version of 8 minutes in which Bono has trouble finding someone who actually can play the guitar. The opening with 11 O'Clock also really works, and its great to hear Seconds live.

Sound

The new recording of this show is amazing and a significant upgrade from the existing source. This is up there with all other good bootlegs which one can listen to every once in a while.
Recording: "Stay, till your heart breaks through" - 4 stars

Audience

In this recording the crowd mix is really good, you can hear the people go mad. Great to hear that with some of the older songs.

Overall

This is a great hidden gem, everything about this show is amazing. It has a great recording, the audience is very well mixed through it and above all: the band puts on an excellent performance. If only for Wire & Bad this is one you should hear at least once. I love the setlist of this show, everything is in it. This was finally a tour where U2 had enough material to put on such a diverse qualitative show.
