Comments

This is a second source of this show. Sound quality is very good, as music and vocals come through pretty clear and there's minimal crowd noise. However, the output is somewhat distant, and it makes the tape to sound slightly flat on occasion. There is a tiny hiccup at 5:01 in Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses.

The show is amazing and it represents the smallest venue and crowd of the whole ZooTV / Zooropa'93 tours, with just 6.500 in attendance. I'd remark that Bono seemed to be in high spirit and the band delivered a strong performance. One of the highlights is a raw version of Until the End of the World, where Bono angrily yells to soundman Joe O'Herlihy to turn up Edge's guitar. Note this show is way well-known among fans, as Bono added some lines of the b-side Walk to the Water to Bad.

For sure, this is one of my favourites gigs of the second leg of the tour, with Milan 22nd of May, and Stockholm 11th of June.
