Performance

Good:
EBTTRT- Adam’s bass was ON FIRE. He rocks that thing from the very beginning. This song was perfection, up until the last note of the song (4:59). Sounds like Edge missed it by a fret or two, which is a shame. If not for that, could be the best performance I’ve ever heard of this one. I wish they’d bring this song back.

I really enjoyed the acoustic-style version of “I Still Haven’t Found…” I’m fairly inexperienced when it comes to early ZooTV shows, so this was a pleasant surprise.

Bono’s improvised lyrics at the beginning of “Pride.” I’d love to see video footage of this. I’m assuming some fan jumped up on the stage?

“Love is Blindness” continues to be one of the most underrated and haunting live songs ever performed. I’m speechless.

Bad:
“Trying To Throw…” - Pretty brutal. Anyone know what guitar Edge is playing here?

Ugly:
Bono’s channeling of Elvis Presley during “When Love Comes To Town.” Instrumentally, it’s great….Bono’s vocals were horrible.

General notes:
Zoo Station: 2:52-3:02 – I heard some clean guitar scales I’ve never noticed on this song before. Was that Edge?!

It’s weird to hear One without any sort of lead in by Bono (i.e. talking about the One campaign). I found it really abrupt that they went from him saying “Sure is hot up here…” into such a beautiful, touching song. Might this have been served better a little later in the set?

Who’s Mick Cunningham? This guy? http://www.wwu.edu/soc/Mick_biog.htm

Am I the only one that heard a little bit of “Holy Joe” during UTEOTW? (4:43)

I’m embarrassed to say that this is my first exposure to “Dirty Old Town.” I remember reading about it in U2 by U2…what was the reasoning for putting this in the setlist? Did Bono just need a minute to catch his breath? Was there a costume change here?

Was that Edge singing the last verse of “When Love Comes To Town?”


Sound

I found it annoying that the audio shifts from right channel to left channel with no apparent rhyme or reason. The overall quality of this bootleg was shifty at best. Sometimes it sounded great, other times it seemed muddled or distorted.
