Performance notes: Surprisingly, Bono plays guitar during Bad. He also alters some of the lyrics, completely changing most of the "if you should ask, then maybe they'd tell me what I should say" verse. The Edge briefly snippets the riff of Whole Lotta Love at the end of Until The End Of The World, just after Bono snippets Break On Through.

Performance

This gig showed just what polished performers the band really are - slick, professional, and still making each song sound fresh, with some 're-imagining'. They really tried to connect with the audience - well, as much as you can with 88,000 people...

Sound

This is truly stunning for an audience recording - it actually sounds better than on the night, which was somewhat muffled at times (and Bono was unintelligible between songs) - no evidence of that here, everything is beautifully clear - great job, Chris!

Audience

Everyone was up for a good time, as evidenced by the Mexican Wave sweeping around the stadium for what seemed like a good 5 minutes. A highly appreciative audience.

Overall

Just a really great recording, if you were there, this is the perfect reminder!
