Performance

Unfortunately, the disastrous vocal blow-out from last night has definitely left its marks on Bono's voice right from the start - although he still sounds miles better than he did on the first night, 'Where the Streets Have No Name' is plagued with ugly growls and flat notes, not giving a bright prospect for the rest of the show. I did enjoy the very wholesome outro with some really nice adlibbing by Bono though. 'I Still Haven't Found' is plagued with strange musical errors and random noises being set off; Bono once again sounds surprisingly strong on it bare a few weaker moments.

The next few songs see both Bono and the band finding their footing a bit more, playing tightly and Bono's voice settling in to be a bit more stable again. Bono thankfully also doesn't push it as much, helping it to stay more consistent for now. One of the highlights of these songs is definitely a very aggressive and political rendition of 'Bullet the Blue Sky' with great adlibs by Bono and awesome guitar work by the Edge. I love the way Bono leads into 'Running to Stand Still' and then FINALLY gives a gorgeous, soft performance with absolutely gorgeous harmonica solo as deserved! 'Exit' is still rather weak vocally but very tight and energetic musically. 'A Sort of Homecoming' is excellent with genuinely fantastic vocals.

The song that absolutely killed Bono's voice last night, 'Maggie's Farm', is far stronger tonight, setting us up for a much calmer final third of the main set. 'Bad' not only sees Bono getting the high notes again but also changing up the structure of the song quite a lot, going into adlibs after the first chorus instead of going back into the verses. Around the snippets, Bono adds plenty of adlibs and does three (!) "WIDE awake" sections tonight. 'With or Without You' is plagued with awkward phrasing choices by Bono but also features a few nice moments - the 'Shine Like Stars' coda is absolutely mindblowing!

In classic U2 fashion, the encores, containing both 'People Get Ready' and "40" as well as a very special live debut tonight, are truly excellent and finish off the show on a high note!

Sound

Once again we have a show blessed with a superb recording!
Recording: "Joe Dupre master - version 2" - 3.5 stars

Audience

Although a step behind the people of Tempe, Tucson also proves to be a U2-positive city as they also let out lots of cheering even when Bono's voice is clearly shot. During various points of the show they start singing along and/or taking over for Bono although they're quieter than most other audiences on the tour while doing so. Bono even jokingly criticises them for not knowing the lyrics to 'People Get Ready'.
