Description
The show itself is great. U2 always enjoy playing The Netherlands and you can hear it.
The band come onstage during 4th Of July which is played from a tape. Wire has a nice improve at the end, when Bono repeats the line "I'll take you home tonight" over and over again. He tries to say something in Dutch before Surrender, but fails to pronounce it right. The song features snippets of Van Morrisson's Gloria, which popped up during Exit on the Joshua Tree Tour. Introducing A Sort Of Homecoming Bono thanks the audience for getting the tickets and waiting in line for so long.
During Electric Co. he explains what the title means and improvises some lines. Bad is somewhat shorter than most other performances but it sounds superb. Pride (In The Name Of Love) is dedicated to Martin Luther King.
40 and a short bit of the outro "Theme From Harry's Game" end a beautiful concert.
Sound
The sound quality's extremely good for an audience recording.
