I don't think so. No cameras are seen on the Dublin 93 show. At least I don't recognise them.

Yes, sorry. I misread it and read "Wembley 87", "Dublin 93" and "Croke Park 05 (wjhich is obviously Dublin"

That's exactly what we all do have. But I mean that it would be Heaven if the whole recording surfaces anyday...

Excellent review of the re-issue in this months Please login or register to view this link
I won't write all of it here, but the headline is
20th Anniversary re-issue of an oft-maligned masterpiece
which sums it up really
And I liked this bit:-
The Joshua Tree .. has been 'meticulously remastered'; but any casual listener who can perceive a meaningful difference between this and the original has i) ears like a bat and/or ii) needs to get out more. The emphasis on the remastering is, however, a telling indicator of U2's essential restlessness: they are, whatever else one may think of them, the least complacent of megastars, gnawingly dissatissfied with their own canon (Bono's contribution to the sleevenotes includes a hostage-offering admonishment to himself that he 'never finished' the lyrics for the album). It's also indicative of U2's desire to broadcast as far and wide as possible, this band who never ... saw the point, or the appeal, of obscurity. .....
The album was, and remains, an epic and unflinching gaze into a country of possibilities inspiring and alarming: a country into which U2 were looking, perhaps, and seeing something of themselves.
