    Huge for me. Larry is a drummer so he's meant to tap the cymbal. The IEM click track isn't a part of the listening experience for me when listening to IEM recordings hence I don't like nor listen to the buggers.


    So you are saying you can hear the metronome on all IEM recordings once the song kicks in?? Sensitive ears. I know its 80 times worse than some girl screaming BONO I LOVE YOU at the top of her lungs.



    Like I said, glad you hate them.

    Nope, U2 archives every single show and most soundchecks and has since 1982. So there is a soundboard recording of just about every U2 show since that time frame.

    Nope I didn't say I could hear it throughout the whole performance, just enough to put me off. It's not only the click that I dislike, it's just the overall ambient of IEM recordings. Just personal preference.

    Most of the shows I listen to are fairly good audience recordings that don't suffer to much from random individual shouts or jeers (although I do appreciate that on some not so good recordings this can soon become unbearable). So hearing a person shout or scream at a 'concert' every now and again isn't as bad as a click click click throughout. Again just personal preference and for the record my ears are slightly sensitive

    No doubt. But how do people like yourself get hold of them?

    Yahweh was also played in S.America, the version at the end of U23D is beautiful, is it this version?!

    Nope, look at the date - 2005. South America was early 2006.


  10. rather nice sounding IEM I must admit. That is an acoustic track though so no click track. How is it throughout the rest of the recording? Sounded nice though
