Performance

Good show here.Stingray>BD>NYD.I think NYD would fit better after Stingray,move BD,back to its old spot in the setlist,5th or 6th.The band are in a very relaxed mood,on this very cold night in Vienna.The slower songs(IALW,EBW,MLK,ONE,Miss S.,MOS) come off very well.Magnificent has a very shakey start.Edge is hitting wrong notes,band is off for a couple moments.The song settles down,but the feel of the song is ruined.MW has a VERY delayed start.Edge was havin some problems,AGAIN at the start of this song.Bono is doing his Oh Ah over and over waiting anxiously for Edge to join in.ISHFWILF has a nice intro speech,start is a little sloppy,but it has a nice flow to it.EBW is once again the story of a show (Helsinki 2). It is played for the second time.I love it.I cant believe the band left this off No Line.Its a beautiful song,and Im glad it was played at this show.I finally have a clear version of this moving song.Bono says its getting there after the song.IMO its there.I love it.Vertigo is very,very sloppy.Edge is hitting wrong chords,Bono doesnt sing the "all of this...".Sounds way off.Maybe Edges hands were cold.UV subs for Hold Me.Sounds very good.Both should be played,Hold Me (with the Joker intro) is a MUCH better opener to the encore.UV should follow Hold Me.

Sound

Very very very good.Sharp/clear tone.After listening to Hannover (very tin,echo sounding),then this show.No comparison.I love the sound on this bootleg.You can hear Larry's drums perfectly(symbols,highhat).Listen to Larry on One.Splendid.Sounds close to a release.Adams bass is clear (Streets).This beats Frankfort as the best sounding from this European Tour, as of this date,by a hair.Bono is very clear,as is the band.A must have download.

Audience

Good crowd.They are there,but this boot really has the audience in the background.ISHFWILF is their moment here.

Overall

Very good performance.A superb listen.The sound is the story here.This is a basic setlist (aside from from EBW).EBW is the standout of this show.Its a great tune.A pleasant listen.Miss Sarajevo sounds great.Love Bonos opera moment.A bit melodramatic,but I like it.He tries his best on it.One, (maybe U2's best song), sounds brilliant as usual.IMO, this classic would fit better as a show closer on 360,as it did on the PoP tour.This whole show flows nice.I wish more shows sounded this good.EBW,One,Miss S.,Ultra Violet + great sound, made me give this gig a 4.5 overall.
