Comments: Well here is my only U2 personal recording. We were in the
front few rows of the small loge deck (below the upper deck) at about
7:00 o'clock (facing the stage). This was a decent place to record
from at that giant cavern. All of the tape flips resulted in no loss
of music. The crowd was really well behaved right around us...but were
very excited during this terriffic show. All in all a very good
document of that great "Joshua Tree Tour". I used to crank a 2nd gen.
copy in my truck to death back in the day...as I'm a big fan of Edge's
"open" guitar sound.

This recording has never been traded and is uncirculated in it's
complete format. I did give out some copies off of the 1st Generation
Mix that were not complete so as to fit on one 90 minute cassette tape.
That would have been back before 1990. If those somehow made it into
circulation, I am not aware.

Please: Only convert this to lossy format for personal use.
Please: Do not buy or sell this recording.
Please: Trade freely.
Please: Enjoy!

Remember: It's only a memory if it was not recorded!

It's amazing how new stuff finds it's way into circulation after 20 years.

then you accept to miss out on many wonderful shows.

Originally posted by dieder:[..]

maybe, but I wanna listen to music I can hear good and elevates me, and a poor recording will not do that.

Originally posted by germcevoy:[..]

an actual 3 star really isnt that bad at all.

Originally posted by dieder:[..]

well with some 5 star AUDIENCE I can live, like the Red Rocks one (which will be gone after the DVD comes)

But there will be a day I will download all the bootlegs available...

Originally posted by yeah:[..]

Red Rocks is no audience recording. Also Pontiac is far from being a poor recording...
