the first REAL soundboard i have heard of the tour - Page 2

SkeeK · 10-22-2001, 05:51 PM

Maybe I do like raw soundboards now and then.. and the cleveland recording ald or no ald is way way way way better than the bufallo ald or the chicago ald or the boston earfeed or even the miami soundboard, so I'm happy.

I gotta say the audience recording of Boston night 2 is probably just as good as Cleveland though. And man that version of mysterious ways kicks ass!

Skeek, I would agree that the Cleveland board is definately better than the ones you mention previously. Especially Buffalo, that is the worst soundboard recording of this tour. I think the Boston 2 earpiece is pretty good though, it gives you a different listening perspective of the show. You are not going to find clearer vocals on any recording than that ear feed. The metronome device can get irritating on some songs but it blends right in with others.

Given the choice between a clear audience recording and a soundboard, I will ALWAYS take the soundboard. But that is just my preference. Actually I like to have both!

I don't know why I get such a kick out of this. You're just so stinkin reliable, Bloo Rume! Can we have a "Stump Blue Room" contest?

That was uncalled for! I have relied on Blue Room's abundance of knowledge about bootlegs and Chicago's GA policies in the past and I thank him for that. You sound jealous to me.

Notre Dame
Turin Italy
Vancouver Canada
New Jersey
Minniapolis
Miami Night 1
Slane

If you are really picky about sound there are files called SHN files, they are on the Arnor Archive but it is best if you have a high speed connection and an account there (10 dollars for 4 months), but its more U2 then you could ever listen to.

Can you post the address to the Arnor Archive I don't think I would mind paying $10 for 4 months.

First of all for those wanting to connect to arnor the best way to do so is to download an FTP client, and there are many of those out there choose one of your liking but the address is as follows:

Host Address: arnor.dyndns.org
user name: arnor
password: u2fan

this is a generic account and only allows a certain number of users and the speed is low but if you pay for an account there the speed is very good his email for getting an account is on the site.

Thanks for the defense mikal but I really didnt get the feeling Spiral Staircase was cutting me down or anything. Maybe I missed something and I'am wrong and if so I dont know why my post would bring on an attack?? But I certainly didnt take it as an attack.

Agrees with Blue. I dont think that was an attack. More like a compliment.

That's cool. I may have misread it. But if anyone is to be attacked on this forum, it definitely should not be you!

I always enjoy your posts Blue Room. You kick ass!
