We got most of these soundchecks almost a year ago (thanks to my amigo @somedays), but it's been @Remy who's done the biggest part regarding uploading and cataloguing. I'm so happy and proud this is finally live and open. It's probably the last big U2 project we'll ever work on so it's a big landmark
    A big landmark indeed! Cheers to @Remy & @LikeASong for making this amazing collection available to all of us. Can't wait to give these a listen!
  2. Not going to lie soundchecks and rehearsals aren’t really my thing except for a few songs I’d like to hear that have appeared at them that haven’t in concert. However, I still think everyone involved with the new soundcheck section deserve a big thank you, from the tapers and people mixing and mastering recordings to the people running the site it’s another great job done so well done and again thank you.

    May we ask what kind of gear you got?
    (Just curious what others run)


    A Sony PCM D 100, will add some external mics for shows (as advised by Hoserama) later.
  4. That is a serius investment!



    Any microphones in mind?
  5. There is a lot of interesting stuff inside these soundchecks.. some early versions of songs, some unreleased songs, some songs never played in concerts, and some rare versions (So Cruel and Acrobat in Hershey, full band Peace on Earth in South Bend, extended snippet of Native Son during intro of Vertigo on Brussels and more)

    We are absolutely interested, yeah If you can upload them it will be greatly appreciated.
  9. I find soundchecks and rehearsals to be pretty interesting. Thanks a lot for getting this started! I look forward to doing some exploring here now that they are as friendly to navigate as the shows are on this site! Thanks again!
