Comments on this show:
Mannheim is one of those hidden gems from the Popmart era, of which we have a great recording available in lossy and lossless. Lots of snippets featured in this show, which makes this an even greater show and recording than it already is. Enjoy!

Cant wait to sit back and thoroughly enjoy this show sometime this week. Will download tonight...always look forward to a good PopMart gig! Thanks guys.

EDIT: Is the audience recording (the one only available through RapidShare, so it seems) complete? The IEM goes up to "All I Want is You" in the main set, then has all the encore tracks except "One" and the closing "Rain". Shame, always nice to hear "Please->Streets"...

Either way, I'll be enjoying this show tonight as I hit the pillow.

Well... To my mind, it is a better performance than the first Popmart Shows but... This is far far away from the last ones, who are the best in my opinion (Mexico, Santiago...).

Mofo is not that good, I Will Follow is very very weak...
Bono's voice is not very fine compared to these shows, even if it is not the worst one. But I am disappointed, I've got to say...
