Comments on this show
This is a great 4-star hidden gem, it's an audience recording available through Mediafire and Rapidshare. Pimm Jal De La Parra comments:

quote:
The enthusiastic Scottish audience sing and clap along continuously, often out of time. At the start of Bad, Edge experiences some technical problems. "Take your time Edge, take your time.. is on your side", Bono sings, improvising his way towards the Rolling Stones song. He drags production manager Steve Iredale onstage during Party Girl and announces it's his birthday.


We encourage you to listen to this bootleg this month and write your own review, the more, the better. Enjoy!

Looks like a nice boot! I will definitely have a listen!

A great one, although I slightly prefer the other night in Glasgow (1984-11-06)..but that's just me though.

Have this one on my Zen as a TUF-fanatic, so I'll write a review later.

Definitely. DL-ed and listened last night, good fun but the Barrowlands show we reviewed grabbed me more - the Amazing Grace snippet on Electric Co. was much better

Long time ago I got both this concert and the day after, 11-06, and always considered them as real hiddem gems, not widely known because of Dortmund... Glad to see they're appreciated around here too

Indeed, Gerard, this Gloria is one of the bests. Adam and Bono are damn on fire!

Added my humble review. Not that big, but sufficient.
