Comment:
Poor Bono ! He struggled with his voice and gave his best.
In the end everyone got his money back. So it was a 75 min -free-show.
Last performance of Hawkmoon 269, and its only performance outside Australia.
This concert came to a premature close due to serious problems with Bono's voice that
were especially manifested in God Part II.
Concerts for the next two nights were cancelled and four replacement shows were performed early
in January 1990 in Rotterdam.
Due to the premature conclusion of the show, the usual encore with BB King and his band was not played,
and accordingly this is the only Lovetown gig at which Angel Of Harlem,
When Love Comes To Town, and Love Rescue Me were not performed.
