    This user has it according to his bootleg listing so you could try sending him a message: http://www.u2start.com/user/profile/225/
  5. I don't think it was recorded.
  6. I've just sent that user linked above (Marcel) a private message to see if he does indeed have it and would share it. So that's all I can do for the moment.

    In fact, he's got a lot of cool stuff which, if it works out to be real (and he's willing to share it), could certainly attract a few visitors here.

    Anything is possible, but I will be shocked if true. Be careful, I could see someone stringing another show together using the Lark setlist to make it look like the Lark show. I have been trading for 20 years and have never even heard an inkling that this show was recorded.

  8. That's a good point - it might be fake, it might be real. Who knows.

    Do you know if the early stuff like the Mount Temple Comprehensive shows are around or not, and how hard can they be to get your hands on?

    I dont think they exist (or if they do, they are in the U2 archives only). I think there are some other recordings of their early club days from 78 out there. Only one has surfaced that I'm aware of though.

    Add U2 playing the UEA in Norwich, England to that list - I don't know anything more than it was one of the early gigs they played (probably pre-Boy era), but I just know they played.
