Performance

he third-leg of the Vertigo Tour seemed to be an experimental leg, with songs that hadn't been played for a good while recieving a dust-off and replay. A typical third-leg set with the highlights being Miss Sarajevo, Fast Cars, The Electric Co, The Fly, Discotheque and Miracle Drug.

Bono telling jokes when Edge had problems with his equipment was a bit of a laugh at the beginning of Yahweh, and the 'Edge From The Future' speech is always a cool little addition. Hearing Discotheque from the band that seems to have officially disowned Pop was interesting, and nice to see they gave it a good run.


Sound

As aussiemofo has pointed out in his very detailed review, there seemed to be a lot of noise and static as well as some dead air. Either the sound recording equipment was utterly crap or bought from Wal-Mart. Not a good recording at all.

It's also an unfortunate fact that some songs were cut. Also, the vocals are way too prominent and sounds flat. If you truly want this show, the lossless is your best bet. The MP3 version is way too poor-sounding, and you will notice the difference.

Recording: IEM - 3.5 stars

Audience

You don't hear them too much through an IEM recording, but they are audible at the end of some songs, and from that, are right into it. It makes you wonder what their reaction was when they heard Pop Muzik starting up.

Overall

While no means the best or one of the best late 2005 shows, it's a good listen (neither brilliant nor poor) and a keeper if you like IEM recordings. 3.5 stars.
