Performance

Absolutely terrific performance from the start! Bono sounds incredibly pumped from the very first song and the entire 'Achtung Baby' opening sounds absolutely incredible with the band playing very tightly and lively and Bono nailing all the songs with additional embellishments and adlibs, showing how fucking much he wants to be on that Arizona stage!

'New Year's Day' is a great one with Bono repeating "love you" all the way through the intro and belting out verse 2 incredibly well. The Edge is messing up some timings both with the guitar and his backing vocals, preventing it from being a highlight. The show continues with a fun Larry 'Dirty Old Town' and another passionate performance of 'Tryin' to Throw...' during which Bono admits to forgetting the words at one point and he stops singing completely a bit later. Mic issues?

A fun 'Angel of Harlem' suddenly leads into a clearly unrehearsed 'Suspicious Minds' which is not tight but adds to the special atmosphere surrounding this show.
'When Love Comes to Town' thrives off energy. 'Satellite of Love' is gorgeous. The acoustic performance of 'Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses' is another big highlight of the show and proves this to be one of the greatest shows on the tour. 'Bad' isn't the most stable performance but Bono's attack at the notes, the snippets and the audience make for an absolute unforgettable performance!!!

'Bullet the Blue Sky' is a phenomenal performance with one of The Edge's best guitar solos EVER. Bono curses a lot during the breakdown. 'Running to Stand Still' would've been a SUPERB performance without a few instrumental errors - Bono is giving it more than his absolute all - scrap the would've, the outro is by far the best one EVER with Bono leaving the realms of our earth and moving into heaven.

'Where the Streets Have No Name' is a great rendition with some great vocals and a superb adlib by Bono in the end. He further adlibs out his excitement during the intro of 'Pride (In the Name of Love') before nailing them choruses alongside the crowd and The Edge. I do love the slightly extended outro as well! The medley of 'I Still Haven't Found' and 'Stand by Me' is fantastic and maybe one of my favourites as Bono keeps asking his bandmates if they have found ... and the crowd participation absolutely elevates it even further.

The encore begins with a great 'Desire', featuring a very long and very passionate "I HAVE A VISION!" speech by Bono before he makes his phone call. 'With or Without You' sounds quite great and features a super improvised extra verse instead of 'Shine Like Stars'. The show finishes with a great 'Love Is Blindness' / 'Can't Help Falling in Love' double shot.

Sound

Typical outdoor AUD from the early 90s with great sound - only draw back is a quite hefty cut in the middle of 'Zoo Station'.
Recording: Audience microphone - 4 stars

Audience

U2 was blessed with awesome audiences in the US and the people of Tempe (not Tampa!) are no exception! Lots of cheering and screaming in between songs, singing and clapping along during these songs.

Overall

Highlights: Even Better Than the Real Thing, Mysterious Ways, One / She's a Mystery to Me, Angel of Harlem / Suspicious Minds, Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses, Bad, Bullet the Blue Sky, Running to Stand Still, Pride (In the Name of Love), I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For / Stand by Me, With or Without You
