Performance

'The last of the rockstars' Bono sings in Kite. Well, for me, U2's old rock spirit died this very night. The following Zoo TV tour was awesome, but Lovetown wasn't a show, it was pure rock'n roll. At its best..

Listen to All I Want Is You, All Along the Watchtower, Desire, Bad etc. Desire is the ebst version ever, same goes for Bad. This is U2 at the end of an awesome decade and at the very start of a refreshing new one. Listen to Bono's voice, a mix of TUF and Zoo TV. My left hand for a ticket to history, just to be there.


Sound

Not the best, but good enough to have regular hair raising moments.

Audience

The Dutch crowd loved it, U@ coming back to Holland after some gigs were postponed. U2 ended the eighties abroad and couldn't do it at a better place, besides Ireland itself.

Overall

One of the best, for sure. Listen to the magnification of Bad, the almost metal-like version of Desire, the sweetness of All I Want Is You, the rock of 40...this is Lovetown, this is rock, this is U2...
