Performance:
Very good, solid performance. Some really great songs, a few were weak. I loved Pride, BTBS, SBS, LAPOE and Miracle Drug. The ZooTV-encore is always cool. I wasn't impressed by the Vertigo's and New Year's Day, BD and RTSS were not much either. Bono's voice was okay, but pretty standard.
Audience:
Simply great. Bono flirting with the entire city of London in the summer of 2005.
Sound:
The sound was very good, but I give it 4,5 because some songs were from different sources and a few songs quit half-way. Sound overall would be 5 tough...
Overall:
Good performance, with a few highlights. Great sound. Amazing audience.
Downsides: Elevation, BD quit too early, COBL starts direct after the intro. Some songs are from other sources.

Sound:
Sound from the radio broadcast is very good, except on a few occasions when the mix goes a bit off (Miracle Drug for instance). The three songs from the AUD source (Electric Co, NYD, Beautiful Day) are pretty awful, however.
Overall:
The radio part is very good, just a shame there aren't better recordings of those three tracks.

Performance:
The band are clearly into it..alot of energy.My first,and so far only, U2 gig in Europe.I like the opening with Vertigo.I dont think they should have also closed with it,but the songs go over.But,for some reason I like the second version more than the first one.One is glorious here.
Audience:
Cant hear them (us) but..its England and they were going wild and drinkin lots of Bass ale.I had a fantastic time...
Sound:
Broadcast over the BBC is great,only downfall is the 3 songs,NYD,Electric Co,Beautiful day sound like crap in the mix of the broadcast..skip the 3 songs. For whatever reason,I guess those 3 were not a part of the broadcast.A shame,as this is really a great show,but incomplete.
Overall:
Its great..I would give it a 5 but..the 3 missing songs make me take off a notch.This is a MUST download.This is from a BBC broadcast so as I have said,it sounds fantastic.BTBS into RTSS are great.U2 in London is always great.The shows in England sound like the band are still tryin to prove themselves there.
I like when Bono says thank you to the British troops for all they are doing overseas in Iraq.Great show.A must have.Sweden and Copenhagen have an edge (no pun).They are complete and have a bit more energy.IMO.

Performance:
They were really on that night. Edge screws up one note in the intro of "The Fly", but the rest of that track ROCKS. Larry also ends "One" a little early, but catches himself, and they finish it proper...makes for an interesting ending, but it still works out. Other than a few minor, forgivable flaws, their performance was inspired and grand.
Audience:
Mixed in VERY well because of the broadcast audio.
Sound:
Everyone seems to be complaining about the "terrible" quality of "The Electric Co.", "New Years Day" and "Beautiful Day", but if the whole show were just that quality and had never been broadcasted, I wouldn't have minded listening to the whole thing that way. If you're a serious bootleg listener like I am, this won't set you back even a little bit. If you're only into the pro-stuff, then it might irritate you, but its hardly enough to NOT download the show for.
The broadcast audio is A+
Overall:
Thoroughly enjoyed this whole show. This Vertigo performance seemed to act as a SHOW, not just a bunch of songs, like the VT setlist sometimes did. This was definitely a rock show at its finest.
Highlights:
-Elevation
-All I Want is You
-Where the Streets Have No Name
-The whole encore
