Comments

Another master by 'bedoc' that documents the second night in Barcelona (Spain). To me, the output sounds bright considering it was recorded in a huge stadium / outdoor venue. Probably, not as strong as his master of the first night in Barcelona, but music and vocals sound very clear, and maybe this one offers more crowd noise. The only blemish might be it sounds a little distant and boomy on occasion. So sound quality would be placed in the borderline "very good / excellent" rating, though sometimes it really sounds punchy and solid.

Electrical Storm made its début that night, as it had never been performed live by the band. Desire and Party Girl made some nice surprises, as they weren't soundchecked during U2's stay in Barcelona. Finally, note I'll Go Crazy if I Don't Go Crazy Tonight was played twice, the first one as the remixed version, and the second one in its original form.
