Note"Rock's Hottest Ticket" - Excellent audience. An excellent package, the highlight being U2's cover of the Peggy Seeger folk tune "Springhill Mining Disaster". While performing the song, Bono tells the crowd, "Shut up for a second will ya? Stop whistling 'cause I'm not in the Beatles, it's U2 here!" Not to be confused with the 2CD sets, of the same name, on the Golden Stars and Live Storm labels. I just wanted to say that the recording is really good, although it's audience, but the concert itself is one of the bests ever. U2 seems to have a love for Chicago, and Bono isn't shy to tell the crowd (and they love it). When he says during 'Pride (In The Name Of Love)', "...I remember very much Chicago. One, because I think U2 played well that night, it was good... and two, because... you're so noisy!" The crowd, as Bono obviously planned, goes nuts and screams their heads off! "In the name of love!!!..." Bono continues. And during "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For", when Bono chants "People dancing to a U2 song, I don't believe this!" Everyone eats it up, dancing and screaming like they never have before. I guess what I'm trying to say is that this is just a damn good (audience participating) concert. If you can find it, and loved the Joshua Tree days (as one must), you'll love this! Feel free to argue with me about this.
