Comments

First ever proper U2 show in the state of Nebraska. This recording is incomplete, as mentioned above by the taper, and it hardly runs over 40 minutes. Sound quality is in the range "very good / excellent". It sounds clear with music and vocals well captured, but ofeers a little distant output, and there's some loud cheering around the taper.
