Epic.Maybe the best show of the tour.2 of my shows at MSG,09.28,29.87 are up there as well as top gigs from this tour..This was at the height of U2MANIA in 1987.The JT was the LP to have,and this tour was amazing.It really brings me back, hearing these songs ,played this way live.Streets is amazing.I always loved it as an opener on this tour.(From time to time the band would open with Stand By Me).IWF is next,you can actually feel the energy emanating from the band.ISHFWILF,has a great intro speech,very moving.BTBK,Exit are very intense,as they should be.I love the Gloria snippet at the end of Exit.Bad is brilliant as usual.The dedication to G.C. is touching.WOWY has one of the BEST VERSIONS OF THIS SONG.Hands down.SLS/LWTUA snippets are fantastic.
Sound
I have always been a fan of this show,and the Paris gig from July 4th,1987.Some really loud fan noise throughout this bootleg made me take half a star off.Example,the start of Streets,someone is whistleing,very loudly,very annoying,drowning out the music.Im sorry,but I cant listen to a song and enjoy it,if a loud yell or whistle is much louder than the music.A shame,this is obviously a special gig,from a special tour,that I had the privilege of attending 10 times in the USA. Recording: Audience microphone - 4 stars
Audience
I remember seeing an old VHS of this gig, when I was in college, back in 1988.The crowd was very energetic and vocal throughout.Great audience.I wish I still had that tape.
Overall
This is a fantastic show,with a great audience,the only problem,this bootleg is not top notch soundwise.I know, its from over 20 years ago,I know,but it is not great quality IMO.Listen to the Paris gig, that was released on iTunes in 2007.The setlists are the same from both of those great European shows,sans Streets.A pity, this show wasnt released.As it is U2 at the best.Highlights : The entire perfomance by the band.(Steeets,BTBK,Bad and of course WOWY are some of the best performances you will hear).The lowlights : The recording is decent,not great.This is a MUST download nontheless.If you want quality,just blast Paris 07.04.87
