Used Goldwave software to mix the audio files.
FLAC, 16 bit, stereo, maximum
Tried to use vocals of Kevtic as that recording had less echoe.
Bass from Voynet was unreal, and M!les did the rest.

PLEASE NOTE: I am no pro but novice (with hopefully sufficient critical ears!!!!!!
First attemp at a matrix, so hope people can appreciate the outcome.
The accoustic of the stadium was not ideal..but hope that does not spoil the fun.

I do not have any illusion its perfect...but hope to have captured some of the amazing power, sound,
clarity and amazing crowd of a gig I was privileged to have experienced.

Thanks again and AGAIN to the Tapers, tremendous gratitude so we can all enjoy
the magnificent gig until the end of the world.

The whole idea was to create a memory for the massive crowd, and ADD something to this wonderful world of fan
sharing, other than just be on the receiving end.

Best U2 regards
