Comments

Excellent sound quality in this recording that documents the only show in Florida during the second leg of the tour. Music and vocals sound very clear and come through pretty strong and upfront. Crowd noise is minimal and people only add a nice live feeling. The recording starts slightly thin, but the taper adjusts the levels at 1:49 in Breathe. From this point, the output remains very solid. The connection with the ISS was pre-recorded, and not live. There is a skip at 2:56 in Elevation that cuts off some seconds of the song, as mentioned above by the taper.

 

Additional comments from the show, taken from u2setlists.com:

As part of One Drop's event Moving Stars And Earth For Water, the 'Space Chat' segment is resurrected for the first time since late July and Bono talks to Guy Laliberté of Cirque du Soleil, who is a "space tourist" at the International Space Station. This takes place between Magnificent and Elevation. Laliberté's contribution was pre-recorded.
