Comments

Tremendous recording from the Boy Tour. It's just fantastic. The sound is very powerful, quite clear and crisp. Audience noise is minimal. All instruments are perfectly captured, and vocals as well. This is the remastered version by Steve Vahey. These are his comments (taken from Justin Cook's website www.justinscdrtrading.com):

This is a remastered version of the show "We're Called U2" that I received from Justin Cook. I decided that it was so close to being perfect, that I may as well go ahead and put some shine on this baby. I increased the level to saturated, remixed the EQ a bit and eliminated a couple cuts in the recording by cross fading the clipped ends. I also performed a very light hiss reduction for a finishing touch. This recording is really incredible!

The running time is about 25 seconds shorter on the remastered version because I removed some dead air at the
beginning and end of the recording and I cross faded a couple breaks between tracks. You'll also notice that the track lengths are different. This is because I created a new cuesheet for the remastered version and moved some of the index positions. There are no clicks or gaps between the tracks on this remastered version. All transitions are seamless.

There's a small blip in the recording at approximately 1:45 into track 3, I Will Follow.
