Performance notes: Bono and Edge play a surprise unannounced acoustic set as part of Mencap's Little Noise Sessions; Adam watches from the audience and Larry is not in attendance. The appearance includes the live debut of Wave Of Sorrow, a song originally created during 1986 recording sessions for The Joshua Tree and finally completed and released on 2007's 20th anniversary re-release of The Joshua Tree. Stay (Faraway, So Close!) is performed for the first time in six years. Two INXS snippets are included in Desire in memory of Michael Hutchence as the previous day was the tenth anniversary of his death.

Performance

only the edge and bono are here plus it's an acoustic show. edge plays very well and great backing vocals.

Sound

the sound could be better.
Recording: Soundboard - 3.5 stars

Audience

people seems to know how lucky they are to be here. they really enjoy it!

Overall

it's a nice acoustic performance. desire is followed by need you tonight and never tear us apart which is great.
this bootleg worth it for the performance of wave of sorrow on piano. the song is much better here than on the joshua tree album.
