Performance

This is without a doubt one of the era defining concerts of early U2: A sudden influx of older material (some of which to be never played again) with an absolutely fantastic crowd and the band in terrific shape. Bono sounds great and nails almost every song ('Bad' is the usual outlier from this). Additionally, some truly terrific snippets and solos that set this show apart from many others.

An essential listen for any U2 fan who's interested to know what the band was about in its first years, shortly before evolving into the late 80s U2 but already selling out huge arenas across America, having fun times with 15 to 20,000 people.
