Best of the tour so far...

[last unicorn]

Stay from Berlin.

Nice surprise and OMG, Bono, what a voice

 

[Acrobat51829]

Beautiful Day from Amsterdam II. Beats Milan I for me. That intro...awesome.

 

[Acrobat51829]

GOYB from Berlin. That 1st recording that surface on TTD is awesome.

I'd take Nice. Sound is worse than Berlin, but the performance is better.

 

[zooropop40]

Crazy tonight Barca 2 was better than Barca 1

 

[Acrobat51829]

Crazy from Amsterdam I trumps them all.

Bad

Dublin 3

 

[Vlaco]

UTEOTW --> Amsterdam II

 

[dal975]

Bad

Dublin 3

actually, most of Dublin 3. best recording i've heard so far- closest to soundboard that i've ever heard an audience recording.

if I had to pick one, I would go with NLOTH from Dublin 3. all three guitars are crystal clear and distinguishable. I love when you can actually hear them playing off each other, like 4 guys in a garage.

Bad from Dublin 3 was

Ultraviolet from Barcelona

Ultraviolet in Nice sounded just as good as when Bono performed it during the Zoo Tv tour.

Sorry, peer pressure

Just kidding mate.

I wish Nice was a better quality recording, because the show did sound very good

 

[last unicorn]

Elevation was great in Gelsenkirchen, very energetic, audience very much into it and couldn't stop singing the Whoo Hoos, which led Bono to start the song again after they finished and do another verse a capella. We loved it

Beautiful Day from Amsterdam II. Beats Milan I for me. That intro...awesome.

Revised - BD from Dublin 3. Now THAT intro...spine-tingling.

Your Blue Room - Zagreb II Soundcheck
Drowning Man - Dublin III Soundcheck

 

[dan_smee]

given that we will likely get soundboard of 2 of the next 4 shows (and possibly 3 of the next 4), I am PRAYING YBR and DM show up in at least one each.

Can imagine there will be somedecent tapers at Wembly too, incase it doesn't show up

2 or 3 of 4? Where are the non-Sheffield ones coming from?

Wembly apparently being filmed by the BBC, not sure if it is both nights, one night, or a mixture of both

Ahh, didn't know that.

 

[dan_smee]

someone posted it in the tour audio/video forum.

It is for an unnamed future release on the BBC

 

[last unicorn]

I don't want to open a separate thread for this but I just want to say that I truly appreciate Moment of Surrender and feel it gets better and better every show. I know there was some doubt and complaints about MOS being the show closer but having been there I think it is a really good choice for the last song. It's a really deep, spiritual and magical moment and Bono is so much into it. If you're in front of the stage you can totally watch his expression and body language when he sings it and there is a certain feeling of perfect exhaustion and of real surrender during this song. Vocally, it's amazing, even if Bono's voice is starting to sound hoarse or tired, but I feel this even adds to the magic. It really left a lasting impression, at least for me.

My U2-Leg 1 bootleg setlist

I downloaded all the bootlegs from U2start and built my own setlist over the past couple of months. My criteria for what constituted the "best version" of something was sound quality of the bootleg and uniqueness compared with other recordings. That's why, even though I'm sure the New years Day from Poland was the best on this leg, it just didn't translate in audio.

My rule was that I could not put a song in a place where it was not preformed (couldn't move Breathe into the No. 4 slot). In two cases, I had to chose one spot or another, because Mysterious Ways and One were were performed in two different places. I chose to put MW at the end, because the recording I took was from that place in the set list. I put One in the front because that is where I prefer to hear it (at a show, I would prefer to get that song over with and out of the way). Because I chose to do that, I could not put Tutu in front of One and kept it in front of Streets.

I used audacity to cut and paste a couple of speeches, and seperate some snippets from the songs (like the Michael Jackson snips).

So the final tally is 50 tracks.

I'm just burning now for the first time. It looks like it requires three CDs.

Total time is 3 hours, 12 minutes
