  2. 1981-02-15 - Hamburg, Germany - Onkel Po's Carnegie Hall

    Seems more of a 3 of 4 stars recording. It's not bad but there is some hiss to the sound quality. Not sure 4 to 4.5 is accurate.

    I DL'ed the Mediafire 320 version.

    I remember myself making that rating, I think the sound quality is very good for a 28 years old recording... Anyway I will change it to 3'5 stars, cos Justin lists it as Very Good Audience, and you report some annoying hiss... Thanks anyway!!

    EDIT. Changed now
  4. Ok!
  5. 2009-08-15 Wembley Stadium. I would give just 4 stars for the Chris Voynet-recording. Sounds good, but Bono's voice is too far away in this bootleg. I think the M!les and sdruu2 sources are better. With an eq they are really fantastic.

    Hmm, think Voynet is still a little better. If other crew members disagree we can give them all 4-stars, I'm fine with that too.

    hit Voynets with a slight bit of bass reducement and it sounds just fine I reckon. Just sounds like a real good recording. A tiny bit distant on the vocals bit id stick with a 4.5
  8. I wouldn't have given the 360 Cardiff show 4 stars. 3 or 3.5 might be more like it.

    It really doesn't measure up to the other 4 star recordings from the tour, Croatia, Amsterdam, and Barcelona being examples. Plus, the band sounds muffled and there's a rather overbearing and tone-deaf audience member taking away from Bono's vocals throughout!

    Love the site though! I remember having to order dubbed tapes from fanboy traders on Prodigy way back in the day and I would have killed for a site like this back then! Thanks!

    Gerard also said something, I'll change it to 3.5


  10. Yeah agree with that.

    Clearly better than many 3-star gigs on this site, but not up to the same standard as the 360 4-stars.

    Too much audience, distortion and volume fluctuations.

    Sounded like it was a great gig though.
  11. 3,5 it will be, thanks!!
  12. 1997-08-20 - Hanover, Germany - Expo Field Audience/IEM.

    Hi,

    there is no audience recording. It's both the iem-recording on your download-page. I've downloaded both sources from your download-page, there are no differences between the sources. Listen to it, then you will see. I only would give 4 stars for the iem-recording. It's a good recording but not good enough for 4.5 or 5 stars, i think.

    Pity. I thought i could do a fine matrix for me, cause i was there.
