Performance

Edge's guitar goes out for about 5 seconds during Sunday Bloody Sunday. That is literally the ONLY thing wrong with this performance.

Sound

Not much greatness here, but what do you expect from a 1986 audience recording? The band is audible, but it definitely sounds like an audience source, I won't lie. But for 45 minutes of sheer U2 beauty, it can be EASILY overlooked.
Recording: Audience microphone - 3 stars

Audience

Loud as hell, but perfectly mixed.

Overall

Everything I WASN'T looking forward to about this show, I loved. "Pride" and "Maggie's Farm", I wasn't all that cracked up about listening to. The former is on just about every show I ever listen to, and it gets tiring, the latter I just didn't care much about. They ended up both being phenomenal.

The "Norwegian Wood" intro to "Bad" is outstanding, and chorus gives me goosebumps. Listen to some recent shows (Vertigo, 360°), and then give this one a spin- Yes, folks- Bono DID used to sound like that

Everything about this show is simply gorgeous. Download it RIGHT. NOW.
