Comments

Second night in Foxboro, and last night of the first leg of the PopMart Tour. And to celebrate, it's said the band members held some cocktails when the lemon opened right before Discothèque. Members of the support band Fun Lovin' Criminals came onstage at the beginning of the karaoke part, joining The Edge. This recording seems to be sourced from a pro-shot VHS. It sounds clear, but it is pretty clipped with saturation all along, so it lacks crispness. Moreover, there is a background residue as if it was heavily remastered. Finally, the last three tracks come from an audience source.

Note a large skip at 2:56 during Pride. I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For fades out, so the tape goes directly to the first moments of Stand by Me (both indexed on the same track). There are several fades and cuts throughout the tape.
