Performance:
In short, lethargic and laboured. This wasn't helped by the fact that Bono's voice was clearly strained on the night. Maybe they didn't come across as such live because the Italian crowd were really great. In fact, although they were the culprit sound-wise in this recording, they were very much the show's saving grace. On repeated listenings I felt they carried U2 through this performance. It was the only Italian show during the tour which probably helped.
Perhaps the perfect demonstration of how the boys were not 'switched on' was the very slow start. It just sounded like they were just plodding along going through the motions with no real energy or intensity.
Things picked up albeit momentarily from I Will Follow to Desire when some of the passion and enthusiasm we all love heightened somewhat, but then it fell away almost as quickly.
Even some of Elevation's usual high-spots just didn't excite me at all. I refer to Bad/40---->Psalm116/Where The Streets Have No Name and The Fly. The latter was the best thing to come out of the tour but here it was just a bit of nothing (although Bono did use a variation of my favorite Elevation Fly intro - the 'Light and Motion' one.) There was just no ooomph (that's a technical term ).
Highlights (very few to speak of):
* Some subtle, small things stood out in my mind e.g. "Jesus, this is Judas!" at the start of Until The End Of The World, the New York, New York snippet was cheeky, there was a nice keyboard bit during Walk On, the Gloria snippets were interesting and I enjoyed Bono speaking Italian at various stages (yes, this was a highlight!).
* I Will Follow was played with its usual gusto and was a good attempt at lifting the energy of an otherwise lackluster performance.
* Out Of Control for it's spontaneity at the end, although Bono fluffed the start. This is what needs to occur more often. A tribute to their loyal fans in the middle of the song was also a nice touch.
Audience:
Great audience. Sang along to every word and showed great spirit. Just a shame the taper couldn't isolate himself fro those around him
Sound:
Probably worth its 3-star rating here. My number one bug bear was the audience. I realise it's an audience recording but they were too audible in too many parts of the show. While I much prefer an excellent audience recording over a soundboard, instances where I could clearly hear audience members singing, excuse me, yelling in my ear occurred all too frequently. No real penetration from Larry and there was some distortion towards the end of Beautiful Day.
Overall:
I couldn't help but feel underwhelmed. I listened to it several times and just couldn't get into it. I prefer Jeremy's Elevation selection from a few BRT's back - the Portland one - for its diverse setlist and all round energy. 6.5/10.

Performance:
Bono, from the start, appeared to be far from his best, but as many U2 fans know, this does not stop you from having a good gig (Argentina 2006 for example), however gaps of silence and snippets that I felt, just didn’t flow from song to song, made this gig feel a little jumpy and to relaxed.
The outstanding point of this gig, at first look, would seem to be the setlist, not the conventional Elevation/ Walk On with a load in-between structure, but the add bonus of Pride and Out of Control to complete the set. This excellence would seem to be further be reinforced by Elevation favorites such as Gone and The Fly. Though these two sounds were performed “good”, the second encore was “scruffy” to say the least, Pride lost its pride with Bono’s reluctant sounding singing (Sarajevo anyone), and what sounded like Larrys Drums cutting out. Even though I don’t really like Out of Control, its nice to here out of Control every now and then, put it felt out of place at the end, and could have been better placed in the middle of the setlist (like Slane).
Audience:
Great audience
Sound:
What was First notable about this recording was the sound quality, the reason it’s a 3 star audience recordings its clearly audible from the start, with the crowd going most of the singing and Bono being drowned out by the Azzui choir. With this you would assume the bass to be none existent, but that was the first of many surprises in this recording, In a Beautiful Day all four components in the song where hearable and, with the aid of ITunes bass booster, Clayton can at least be heard, if not a little quite.
Overall:
Highlights
The Fly: a highlights at any elevation gig, though not played at its best
Gone: great song, should be played more
The crowd: Nice to hear them after the Elevation Sound boards that we’re used to
Lowlights
Bono’s Voice: Sounded very weak
Pride: I personally thought it was crap, though its not my favourite song
Sound: weak, flat, what you would expect from a 3 star audience recording, but I’ve heard better.

Performance:
This is one of those shows when the band aren't disinterested (personally, I don't think they ever truly are), but moreso that the crowd are far more in the mood than the guys themselves. The show really takes time to gain some momentum, but once it does I really started to enjoy it. The first few songs are missing that energy, despite the fact that you'd expect the first part of the mainset to do precisely that - get the show on the road, as it were. New York was great, I have to say the more I listen to this song, the more I fall in love with it. It's not your normal fare, but it keeps surprising me with its live qualities. I Will Follow really got the show underway, and Sunday Bloody Sunday was one of the most exhilirating performances I've heard in a long time - Bono's "no more!" speech was just incredible for me; I know we all know he's one for big powerful speeches, but this was up there with the "fuck the revolution!" Denver speech for me. Stuck In A Moment was pretty good, Edge was in his element with his beautiful guitar part. The B-stage set was great fare in my opinion - a really moving version of In A Little While, Desire was great and Stay (Faraway, So Close!) was really on the money for me. Tis a strange thing to think that 2 men and an acoustic can hold the attention of 80,000+ people in one of the largest football stadiums in Europe with voice and strings alone, but my God they did. However, after this, the show started to get lost on the wayside...Bad was, well, rather eponymous in my opinion. I may seem harsh but Bono's voice was fading fast, and he was really straining every sinew to keep on going, and Where The Streets Have No Name suffered similarly. Mysterious Ways and The Fly were pretty good, but suffered from the aforementioned decline of Bono's voice.
The encore was pretty good; a decent version of Bullet The Blue Sky - a great solo from Monsieur L'Edge - followed by a rousing rendition of With Or Without You, although at this point the crowd singing came back to haunt me...Wake Up Deadman was fantastic in my opinion - for some reason, Bono's vocal decline actually made this all the more haunting and emotional, and I actually had tears in my eyes for a bit. Heartbreaking stuff, it really was. Walk On was great, but Pride (In The Name Of Love) wasn't so much. Good fun, but I'm thinking the guys' musicianship jumped ship and popped down the pub for 5 minutes as the song came to its conclusion - it made me grin, but it sure wasn't their finest moment! Out Of Control was good fun, but out of place - such an energetic song is main set fare, preferably in the first 5-6 songs. Such as it is, it fitted the nature of the show - full of promise, but out of sorts.
Audience:
This part is only rated, not commented on.
Sound:
Not really too much to say on the sound. My first thoughts were that the 3-star rating was slightly harsh, but in hindsight it's bang on - the band are audible, but to a limited degree. It's nothing like the Adelaide Lovetown show we reviewed recently, it's clear and sharp but Adam's bass isn't very loud and the drums sometimes lose some 'oomph'. The other qualm which I had was the audience - I like my audience recordings on the whole, but on occasions you get ones such as these where the crowd in the viscinity is too audible at times. Now, I'm a fairly liberal kind of guy BUT I really wish that if members of the crowd are going to sing along, SING IN KEY! Such an gripe, although personal on my part, is further aggrivated when said crowd members drown out the band in full swing...examples of this being large parts of Until The End Of The World, New Year's Day, Where The Streets Have No Name, The Fly and With Or Without You.
Other than that, I don't have any issues with it...
Overall:
Well, it's a good show for easy listening, but that's part of the problem - you're not genuinely grabbed by it in anyway until I Will Follow, a good half an hour into the show. The sound is average, but very much listenable. As such, I wouldn't call it a must-have show, nor is it one for someone looking for a really good Elevation tour show on a par with Slane or South Bend BUT it's a good show to fill out your collection. Don't make it a priority, but just sit back and listen (as long as you're not too fussy about off-key crowd singing!)

Performance:
So we have our first Elevation show with Elevation being the starter in a long time. Elevation rocks off to a great start. Bono not so much. Beautiful Day also suffered from strained vocals. The band is a little late on the Until the End of the World intro, and poor Bono was just so strained with the vocals. New Year’s Day was good, but the concert still hasn’t “elevated” for me. Kite was good, but not as good as what I expected it to be, since the emotional level wasn’t as high as it was after Slane. Gone was alright. I never have dug New York, ever. This concert didn’t change my mind. I Will Follow was the first great song here. Kept the concert alive for me. I must speak my mind and say the pause between IWF and SBS didn’t help. Larry could have started drumming the intro to SBS at the end of I Will Follow. SBS didn’t stand out. In My Life is forgettable, but thanks for me keeping me entertained at the time Bono. Stuck in a Moment was great. Also I haven’t really dug In A Little While, but that’s just me. They did well with it. Desire just doesn’t really work that way. But it was used as a band intro. I liked the intros, but not the song so much. Stay was awesome. Just so intimate and captured the mood. Maybe not the best version, but a highlight for the concert. As for Bad, Bono struggled with the “wide awake” bit. The intro to Streets was alright, but nothing special. Streets was good, not great. MW was ok, but the song just doesn’t work that way. The Fly, one of my favs, played the ultimate way, was not good at all. The intro was too long, and the scream just didn’t work. BTBS was also just iffy. With or Without You wasn’t spectacular either. The backing track gave me a headache. One had its moments, and it was great. Wake Up Dead Man was just as good. Walk On was great, and another highlight for me. The crowd just takes over with Pride. You can’t hear Bono sing the choruses. Quite odd when Larry stopped. Oh well. Then comes the last song, Out of Control. Ok, so Bono fucked up on the first stanza, but whatever. I thought it was still great.
Audience:
Robert Plant once said “so tonight, we're gonna have a really ecstatic one [show], this is co-dependent on two things: us and you.” The audience was really into this one. Just like the Zoo TV Milan gig (1992-05-22), the crowd was so into the show. Listen as they drown out Bono during the choruses of Pride. The crowd made this one pretty good.
Sound:
I’ve got a headache from this show, mainly from With or Without You. I liked it. For a 3 star show, this is perfect placement for it. Sound wise this is for collectors only
Overall:
Highlights
I Will Follow – finally, we got a good one!
Stuck in a Moment – Bono comes back vocally
Stay – Very intimate moment of the concert
One – Bono comes back, again
Walk On – this song is always awesome
Out of Control – love how it closes the show, just as they did with the Boy tour.
Lowlights
New York – I just don’t like the song
In A Little While – never really went anywhere for me
Desire – It just didn’t cut it for me
The Fly – Bono! Why did you try the scream in the intro? Why was the intro so long?
Overall[
As I said, this is for collectors only. Kareem said it best when he said it was die-hards too. It would seem like the perfect show with such a good setlist, but it isn’t. If Bono was vocally spot on my review would be totally different. All I know is I’ve got a headache, and this gig is for collectors and die-hards.

Performance:
Not that good. I love Elevation, but this one wasn't really IT. The band wasn't in the mood and it more or less felt like an obligation. Anyway..there were some standouts and for me these were Kite (always love it), The Fly, Out of Control (at the end, just a surprising place), In A Little While and Desire with the snippets. Bono's voice wasn't there either, as mentioned by those before me.
Audience:
This part is only rated, not commented on.
Sound:
Worthy the 3-star rating here. Nothing really special, all instruments were there although the crowd was indeed sometimes a bit irritating. Nothing more to say here.

Performance:
The whole gig was as flat as a pancake with Bono's vocals playing the biggest part of this. It didn't sound wrecked (ala Sarajevo), his voice was just ugly. Obviously we know of the certain personal issues he was suffering at the time but this night sounded worse than most. His voice didn't compliment songs like Stay and Bad but actually sounded good during Streets I thought.
The extra encore was kinda cool but I thought it would have been better playing Out Of Control alone. I'd love to hear a set without Pride..
Audience:
Excellent audience. Sang along to everything they good and gave a flat gig a little spark.
Sound:
The recording was so so so nearly a cracker but this wasn't to be as a number of certain individuals knew every word to every song and sat very close to the taper. Individual claps and voices are heard throughout which is a big fat minus. Unfortunate but no-ones to blame. . the taper has to sit where he has to sit and some people like to sing along.
Overall:
Overall, the gig was a very somber listening experience. Bono sounded as if he didn't want to be there and when thats the case, the rest of the performance hits the floor. I also don't think that the Elevation Tour suited the stadium sized venues (excluding Slane because it's unique). I don't know whether this is only because Elevation was almost exclusively outdoors but their seemed to be something missing in the atmosphere for this gig.

2- Beautiful Day : not special one , but Edge guitar is alsom amazing , the crowd cheers at the begining of the choruses was amazing though their clapping at the beggining of the song was a bit annoying
3- Until The End Of The World : heared better than that one , though Adam's Bass is wow and Larry's drums was very Powerful , and Edge's continue on special performance
4 - New year's day : Bono's Voice is starting to be solid on that night , the other band members is having a wonderful night playing together especially Adam's Bass

6- Gone : One of the best performance i heared for that song , great Bono's Voice , and best larry's drums i ever heared , and Edge's solo at the end is amazing .
7- New York : didn't quite enjoy the song ( maybe bec. i don't like it so much) but larry's drumming was so loud and edge's solo is what made the song worth listening to it
8- I'll Follow : not special performance , maybe it meant to be special that they didn't play it since a long ago where i liked the boy era performance of the song
9- Subday Bloody Sunday : not a good one , bono's speech made it dull and boring taking away alot of the glory from that great song
11- Stuck In A Moment : Reviving point for that night , Bono's solid vocal is back again , it's just a beautiful song
12- In A little While : good performance of this song , like the bit of the change in how they played the song
13- Desire : worst version i ever heared , sry , but what was that , this song should be big and loud , i had to listen to various version of this song after i listened to this one to return my faith in that song , even the snippet was not good
14- Stay : Great acoustic performance of the song , one of the highlight of the show , made me listen to it over and over and over , it's just Great

18- The Fly : i like the quite intro to that song , new to me , quite different but amazing , Edge's Guitar is WOW WOW WOW ( big bow to the most talented guitarist in the world) , it's a wisdom saying that the elevation version of The Fly is the best one and I believe in that saying.
19- Bullet The Blue Sky: quit a good performance of this song ,really one of the highlits of the night , and wat makes it that the amazing guitar of Edge and amazing Adam's bass , didn't quite like the snippet

22- Wake Up Dead Man : good performance of that song , i used to hate the version of the studio album , but this version is better that that on the album .
23- Walk On : Amazing Performance of that song , it's just a fabulous tune. one of my favourite live songs
24- Pride (In The Name Of Love) : Didn't do too much for me , specially that Bono's Voice was not quite audiable at the begining of the song , Larry's strong drumming is also absent here
25-Out Of Control : another Boy era song , i'm gonna say like i said in "i will follow" , maybe it meant to be special that they didn't play it since a long ago , but i liked it better than "i will follow"
*Bono Voice is lost after "Bullet The Blue Sky" , but maybe i think that he regained it , or maybe the songs was strong that I didn't notice it also in the begining of the concert , his voice was lost
*Highlights : "kite" , "Gone" , "Stay" , "Streets" , "The Fly" , "Bullet The Blue Sky" ,
"Walk On"
Audience:
This part is only rated, not commented on.
Sound:
i guess it deserves more than three stars , the only proplem is the crowd noice at some points , Wich is not so annoying , but there 's four star audience wich is lower than that.
Overall:
I Guess this show is for the die hard fan only , though some song performance may be supplied as bonus tracks on an "Elevation Tour" compilation , if you know what i'm talking about.

Performance:
Elevation typically kicks off the show in what sounds like a packed out Stadio Delle Alpi. The crowd are certainly fired up for it and judging by the weakness in Bono's voice during Elevation, they're going to have to lend a helping hand throughout. Beautiful Day follows on and it sounds significantly better. Bono doesn't suddenly become a 1987 Bono, but his strained voice really does lend itself well to the song. The rest of the band sound very tight as they launch into Until The End Of The World. Towards the end though, it becomes a little uninteresting. With a lack of power in the vocals, it might have fared better as an instrumental. Moving on with a throwback to the early 90s as the bass of New Year's Day kicks in. Again, as with Beautiful Day, the state of vocals fits well with the song and Adam sounds amazing throughout. Kite provides us with a break in the initial pace of the show. It's a solid performance, nothing more and nothing less.
Next up is one of the few survivors from Pop - Gone. Decent performance, but you can really hear the strain in Bono's voice as he attempts the longer notes. The crowd didn't seem to be up for that one much, a nice round of applause ends the song. New York is fantastic, even as Bono gets lost in the middle. After a lacklustre period for the crowd, they're treated to an old favourite in I Will Follow. The band can't get this wrong after all of these years. Simple yet effective. So effective, that the band immediatley enter another classic with Sunday Bloody Sunday and it continues the really strong middle section that the band have going.
Stuck in a Moment kicks off a slower section and there's nothing wrong with it. It comes in for some stick on these forums, but I like the full band version and thoroughly enjoyed it tonight. In A Little While is another little song from All That You Can't Leave Behind that I love. Desire features in the usual stripped back Elevation style - a little bit of fun in the middle of the show. Stay rounds off this mini-slower/stripped-back/acoustic section nicely.
Bad begins a run of classics that will close out the main set. It's a strong performance that segues perfectly into an even stronger performance of Where The Streets Have No Name. Mysterious Ways is pretty standard stuff. Bono's voice is holding up much better now and the crowd are really loving this string of songs. The Fly (Elevation style) closes out the main set and it does so driven by The Edge's fantastic work on guitar.
Bullet The Blue Sky opens up the encore and it's almost faultless. Bono just lets the side down, but still, excellent. With Or Without You is standard stuff. The crowd seems to be in the mood to sing along but aside from a Shine Like Stars snippet, it's very typical With Or Without You. One sounds quite good, Bono is a little off in places but it's perfectly rounded off with the Hear Us Coming snippet (pulling out all of the favourites tonight). Wake Up Dead Man is excellent as it usually is on the Elevation Tour. Walk On would have closed the show superbly, very strong performance I though. However, the band decide to play Pride and Bono really doesn't do it any justice. The crowd however are determined to end the night on a high. Not quite sure what goes on at the end, it seems as though half the band want to stop and the other half wants to continue. Anyway, if you think that it's a good time to start the car and go home, you'd be treated to a performance of Out of Control as you're making your way out of the ground. This is a far better way to end the show than Pride.
Audience:
The rest of the crowd sing along with pretty much every song and really help to carry it in places. Italian crowds are usually passionate about a live U2 show and tonight is no different.
Sound:
Not enough bass. I joke, I thought my head was going to implode at first. There's a lot of clapping picked up new the taper and individual voices can be picked out throughout, particularly during Stay. If you can listen past this, then the actual recording is rather good.
Overall:
Overall it's a good show. It takes a while to get going and for Bono to settle in with a weakened voice, but when it does pick up it becomes quite an enjoyable listen. The second encore is a long drawn out affair, but it's well worth waiting for just hear Out of Control.

Performance:
And here we are after a long day for the band, mainly Bono due to G8 summit and Black Block riot, and for the fans in long waiting (it was not a stroll at all), the notes of the Inlux remix spread over PA followed by the real Elevation in classic opening way of the tour. People soon show the band they’re gonna help to have a blasting night. Hard work for Bono vocals cord in line with the period but he doesn’t sign he will hold himself at all. Solid carpet of sound by the band behind.
Obvious following with Beautiful Day where Bono starts to modulate his singing a little bit better; not a perfect Edge with some esitations and some feedback issues in the mic that bother Bono towards the end. Pretty good one though to warm up more the already high temperature.
Judas calling Jesus moment, one of my favourite and uncontrolled in every concert. Love the Bono singing as a rhythmic speech and the drums-bass lines, mainly Adam’s work is very good. Again not an aggressive Edge in the solo and in the final “duel” as well.
Adam launches his unmistakable riff introducing the explosion of New Year’s Day, great people going with Edge piano. Suffering Bono all over, and it cannot be different for this song; well supported by Edge and the incredible (his word) crowd.
Time to slow down a bit and Kite falls perfectly. Throat status really helps to pull out an intense and moving one; very well done by all the four. Like it’s used to say goosebumps all over.
The hype don’t come down with Gone and Edge is “on fire” in his amazing work on guitar, pedals and backing Bono. Larry and Adam gives him their usual solid support to his evolutions.
Passage from Pop to the new album and it can not be other than New York, the highest peak on the album in creativity for sure. It’s no less than a real highlight of the concert. Great in every single component.
Bono just makes a call and people don’t let to be asked twice in following I Will Follow (bad word joke I know). Nice ride through the song by the band in unison with the stadium.
You can go wrong with what comes next .. Bono needs to release all his frustration his anger of the day and what better than Sunday Bloody Sunday?! Fire in his soul tiger in his eyes. Simply at the top with the tops of the Sunday versions .. pure adrenaline .. and moreover once again Italians don’t betray.
Beatles In My LIfe introduces the romantic dedication of Stuck In A Moment. It doesn’t happen often I spend positive words about this song, this is an exception, nice one with a very nice sing along.
Crowd prompt the band with his amazing loud chant and jesus that deserved better than In A Little While .. kidding a bit .. anyhow it goes in the same line as the previous Stuck.
Acoustic set started by Desire with the band intro during the first riffs. Loveable Larryin the progression of the song. Gloria snippets gives it a plus for sure.
Larry and Adam leaves to let Bono and Edge Stay. Easy for this song, and with this audience, makes the moment a very sweet and beautiful one .. and this is it.
While the Stay chant keeps going, things become serious when the base of Bad starts. A long strained immense release of emotions by everyone in the building. No flaw and the voice increases the sense of relief of soul. No word can explain all this.
40 makes as bridge to Streets the big shaking of the stadium from the foundation. Hard job for Bono to keep it going but once again the thousands of voices support him till the end.
Mysterious Ways – The Fly to close the main set. Spotlights on Adam groove and Edge solo and end of the first one (too bad he disbanded it lately). Even more spotlights on Edge for The Elevation Fly fantastic in all the parts, riff, feedbacking, solo .. whatever.
Encore seems to flow in an “usual” way starting with a classic powerful Bullet to the Classic U2 ballad; With Or Without You adorned by Shine Like Stars snippet, obvious the response of the public.
One comes after a short break showing the peak of the communion of souls of this night. It could be quite ordinary at a cold listening but it’s not. Wake Up Dead Man is awesome in its moving interpretation; Bono takes his heart and spreads it out.
Walk On and Hallelujah singing should close this amazing magic night but … Bono definitely don’t want to leave .. one more and an extra Pride is thrown. Pretty funny mess up Edge’s effects accompany an exhausted but not giving-up Bono .. no problem all the people carry the cross. Absolutely well deserved double lap around the circle and … another incredible surprise. Edge and a possessed Bono muster the other almost endressed part of the band .. because “we can’t go home”. Back to roots for this other extra, Out Of Control goes better than the previous Pride but nobody cares of this stuff at this point…
Bono’s throat, some Edge’s blunders don’t affect much the rendition of the concert; the public has its credit in that though
Audience:
Just 3 words .. huge .. awesome .. amazing
Sound:
It would be almost perfect if not for the bass too in foreground and the crowd lightly hearable for what it actually was
Overall:
Maybe I’m too biased about this night. Some issues don’t ruin at all what was a perfect special magic night, with a band composed by 4 guys on the stage and tens of thousands around it all in an unique Heart, Soul, Love (and not money). Indelible night till death. Always grateful I was part of it.
It should be A Must for every U2 fan and not.
Highlights: just to name some .. Sunday Bloody Sunday - Bad – Wake Up Dead Man - Where The Streets Have No Name - Kite –The Fly - New York – Desire – Out Of Control
