I was wrong it seems!
Desire is now avaliable from the same project link as above.
However, I must really go to bed before I pass out now.
I hope some more videos pop up tomorrow!

You might want to correct the date for historical purposes. Friday's date was 11-23 and you have it as 11-22.

Thanks very much for the downloads.

What did he say right before starting Wave of Sorrow?

I think he says "turn down the piano onstage" to the sound engineer, so he could hear his vocals better I assume.

Good call Bono

 

[TheBrazilianFly]

Fuck, Bono is great on Desire! He is singing with so much passion and energy! Even though his voice was amazing on the last tour, what he did with Desire now is what I miised on that tour. Messing up with the melody just a little bit and belting out the words on that dirty and Springsteen way. A bit more ballsy with his voice. Awesome! I very much hope he keeps singing like that!


Now, where's that Angel of Harlem with that Like A Rolling Stone snippet?

ah ok thanks to you both!

 

[Utoo]

Damn, Bono sounds great, especially on Desire! The lower register is still a little shaky, but not bad, and those upper notes are incredible! Can we get even more psyched for the new album???

Peterrrr, The_Edge89, and Bonocomet----you guys rock!

Peter, The_Edge89, comet, thank you sooooo much!

 

[Thehandsoflove]

Thank you soo much!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Rob33]

any idea how these videos were taken and how they ended up on youtube??

i can only imagine what Angel of Harlem/ LARS and Stay were like....omg Stay must've been haunting!! I can't believe it, first time in quite awhile it's been performed..and in such a small area like this! incredible..Bono's voice

 

[Notabene]

Thank You to all who posted the links! Puts a smile on my face.

AWESOME!!!!!!!!! Thanks!





Can you imagine being there, not expecting this

That would have been totally amazing, I probably would have had to pinch myself to make sure I wasn't dreaming.

 

[Utoo]

any idea how these videos were taken and how they ended up on youtube??

Looks to me like they're from a digital camera, taken by a random audience member---who then posted it on youtube.


It might be unlikely that we'll see Stay & AOH from this particular source----my guess is that the person was in shock when Bono & Edge came out, in even more shock when they started playing, and then was like, "Shit! I should be recording this!" Which is why they only got the second half of the set.

Still hoping for more sources.....and still hoping that those pics from u2.com are pro-shot video screen caps...
