most of them were copied cd's- this cd and record fair ppl travel all over the uk and in dublin there is a shop beside temple bar and over half of it is dedicated to video and cd's with all these u2 concerts taped on them- its an amazing shop and they have a red guitar signed by the edge for sale as well and laods of singed u2 vinyl- if u ever get a chance to get to go to dublin go to that shop!

I have no idea which are best...but I would guess maybe they don't have Slane because it was so popular that they'd run out of copies of it?

I'm so very helpful

Not!

I had just typed in a whole response to this post when I lost connection to the Internet. Now everything is lost!!!

Anyways, IIRC my main point was this:
- Don't buy bootlegs from record shows (or Ebay) because you don't know what you get. It might be a decent recording, but big chance it's just a bad MP3 recording downloaded from the Internet. If you do want to delve into the world that is U2 live recording, join a U2 trading mailing list. Two very good ones are U2Trading and ElevaSHN, both found on Yahoogroups (http://groups.yahoo.com or http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ElevaSHN/ for the ElevaSHN mailing list and http://groups.yahoo.com/group/u2trading/ for the U2Trading mailing list). There you can get (trade or for Blanks & Postage) excellent live recordings from a source you know is good (and no scumbag is going to profit from it).
