Comments
Outstanding recording for the first of two shows in Philadelphia. It sounds very full, with all instruments quite good captured, and this time it brings a more balanced low-end. Clarity and sharpness are both stunning, so music comes through very clean. Audience noise is located in the background fo the whole set. Note that the mix and balance between music, vocals and crowd noise is fantastic. The concert is pretty powerful with an energetic performance and a high-spirited audience.
The only blemish I can remark is a screaming girl after Into the Heart, just when a child invited by Bono onstage goes down to take his/her seat back (although not a big issue, as she is not very close to the taper).
