Best Bads:

1. East Rutherford 4/14/85 (I think that's the date - it was the last night of the stand) - I have it on bootleg - about 16 minutes - it just goes on and on and Bono includes a lot of cover snippets, including Take me to the River and Who's going to hide your love away. Sounds really amazing and emotional, and I wish I had been there.

2. Dublin 6/29/85 is also a great version on boot.

3. Amnesty Chicago 6/13/86 - I was there for that one, and I have it on video. Just magnificent; only drawback is that Bono picks a girl out of the crowd after the 1st chorus part and blows off the crescendo part of the song. But truly awesome nonetheless.
 
David mentioned the Jan 9th 1990 performance as being a great one. I think this is the one from Rotterdam. If so, it was an amazing performance of Bad. It may not have been one of the longest ones, but vocally Bono was at the top of his game. He truly must have been tearing up his vocals on that one. I love when he issinging/shouting, "No,No,No,No..." It sends shivers up you spine.
