Performance:
Excellent!!! I was there, in the pit, front and center!
Audience:
Could have been a little more energetic, but got pretty darn load by the end.
Sound:
a little "muddy" but pretty good, except for the fact that the second download is empty when expanded! I was only able to download the first half of the show! I tried 4 different times. Please resubmit the second half!
Overall:
again, good. except the second file is empty. No songs! (Vertigo - Moment of Surrender)

Performance:
U2 gave a solid performance at this show. They had a good mix of songs from throughout their career, although they did not play anything as early as Boy or October. They were in fine form, probably just as good as the first time that I saw them in 1987 on the Joshua Tree tour.
Audience:
I've seen three U2 concerts -- Joshua Tree in fall 1987 at the old Sullivan Stadium in Foxboro, MA; Pop Mart in 1997 at RFK Stadium in DC; and now this one at FedEx Field. Nothing compares with a Boston audience like at Foxboro (especially on THAT tour), but the crowd was a bit more subdued than the '97 DC one. Of course, it was probably a lot of the same people, but we're now 12 years older and it WAS a Tue. night...
Sound:
Not soundboard quality, but very good for an audience recording.
Overall:
Great way to relive the concert experience. Band was in good form and they played a great mix from their catalog.

Performance:
the band was good, bono seemed a preoccupied with getting out his "callouts" to the politcal folks in attendance. he then enjoyed introducing the band members as (mocking the US politcal structure) the U2 "cabinet".
Audience:
from the side stage i thought the audience was great! singing quite a bit and then there was a fantastic roar to bring them back for the first encore.
Sound:
not bad. would be nice to get a soundboard from this tour.
Overall:
its nice to finally review a show i was at

Performance:
Band sound good.This is a bit of short set.The average is 23 tunes,sometimes 24 (09.23.09).On this night in Landover it was 22.NLOTH was not played for the first time on the tour.Unknown Caller is also missing,but has missed a few shows here and there.I would have thought the band would have played 24 songs,or at least the average amount, being that they had not performed a full show in 5 days.But this is a very good show.Breathe is there leading off,Magnificent sounds great as usual, as does Boots.Your Blue Room was played, so I wouldnt have really been too upset by the short set.NYDis also pulled out and played well.
Audience:
Sound good,but the recording doesnt do them justice.
Sound:
Very,very nice job here.Bono is very clear.The bands instruments sound fine in the backdrop.The sound is good.Almost as good as night 2 Giants Stadium (09.24.09) and Chicago night 1 (09.12.09).But not quite.A solid 4.The only bad thing,the aforementioned shows were better.But this is worth a listen.A keeper IMO.
Overall:
22 solid tunes.Your Blue Room,UF,NYD,MLK,Walk On,Streets,Magnificent are standouts.Download it now.Cheers.

Performance:
Awesome! My first U2 show....everything was perfect! Tight playing, good setlist. Highlights for me were: Walk On, Get on Your Boots, Amp singing on SBS, End of One "hear us coming, hear us call", snippet of Stand By Me, Adam's awesome ways on Mysterious Ways.
Audience:
Audience is somewhat quiet in the audio, but even at this Tuesday night show they weren't overly impressive in person. Good singing from everyone during Still Haven't Found and Streets.
Sound:
Good! A bit muddy at times, volume seems to warble a couple times as well, but overall very good for a bootleg. Bass is at a good level, I might add....
Overall:
Awesome for the most part, especially since this was my first show! Vertigo didn't download correctly for me, but not a bad loss considering what else is on here so I'm not complaining.

Performance:
Flawless... The best were Streets (of course), Unforgettable Fire, and Sunday Bloody Sunday
Audience:
Pretty calm. It might've been different inside the circle
Sound:
Great
Overall:
Audience was weak throughout the concert but the music was perfect. Can't wait to get the one for Philly 7/12 (I'll be there!)
