  1. Sorry to hear that, Gerard....

    My review of this gig:

    1981-02-01 London, Lyceum Hall

    Sound:
    It’s worth a 1-star rating. It just sucks, actually…

    Performance:
    Good/decent. There are some good songs played throughout the show, especially Electric Co. and All Along the Watchtower, even with Bono singing awful. Also An Cat Dubh and Into the Heart are good. Stories for Boys is also special with a good amount of energy.
    I can't judge Adam, because of the awful sound quality. Edge is playing decent with some peeks, Larry drums great as always and Bono is indeed shouty and not really in to the show...except with I Will Follow.

    11 O’Clock Tick Tock – Reasonable, I’ve heard better ones. Bono’s voice seems good and Larry drums very well, but I think The Edge isn’t really on fire on this one.
    (6/10)

    Touch - Good. Although I haven’t heard this song very often, I think it’s played in a good way.
    (7,5/10)

    An Cat Dubh – A lot of resonance in the audio, but a good performance. It’s really played as it should be played. The Edge is playing well, Larry is drumming good….no further comments at all.
    (8/10)

    Into the Heart – Also a good performance. Bono sings it quite good and it’s a typical Into the Heart, actually.
    (7,5/10)

    Another Time, Another Place – Good, but I can’t hear the performance in a good way because of the poor recording. Anyway, trough my Sennheisers, I can hear Bono singing well and the drumming of Larry is also good.
    (7/10)

    The Cry/Electric Co. – This recording really is poor…From what I can hear it’s a very good performance again. Quick drumming, Bono doing his best to sing well and Edge playing also well. It’s being played in a fast tempo, like it should be played, I think. You can really hear it’s a early version of this beautiful song. Also a great snippet before Edge comes in halfway the song.
    (8.5/10)

    Things to Make and Do – Nice ‘ending’ to Electric Co. Good drumming from Larry.
    (8/10)

    Stories for Boys – A great one, I think. Bono sings good again. The sound is really poor on this one, by the way.
    (8.5/10)

    Twilight – Decent performance. Not really a special one.
    (7/10)

    I Will Follow – Good performance. Bono sings very good too. A typical I Will Follow.
    (8/10)


    Out of Control – Decent, I’ve heard it played much better. Bono doesn’t look really focused on the song. The Edge is on fire though….
    (6.5/10)

    All Along the Watchtower – Funny actually…a very early performance of this song, I think their very first. Bono sings it awful, it’s almost painful to hear. The performance of Adam, Larry and Edge is quite good for a first time.
    (5/10)

    11 O’Clock Tick Tock – Slightly better than the first one. There’s more energy in this one, I think.
    (7/10)

    Average mark: 7.2/10

    Yes, it's amazing! Possibly the best version. It's one of my favorite bootlegs as well. Grab it when you can.

    you will never ever hear a crowd as good. The chant the Zoo Station intro and know the words to every single song word for word. (Best UV ever to) but we have to stop. We are already reviewing the show here.
  12. I think I'm out for this week guys.
