NOTE (by Fradoca, distributed with .flac files): This double cd contains performances from both gigs that u2 played in Vancouver during the vertigo tour on the first leg.The source of the recording is clearly ALD.Both show were videotaped those nights as rehearsals for the upcoming chicago nights used then for the official dvd.  The original recording itself was a decent ald with a very strong hum around 60 hz.I've removed almost all the hum(it was very very strong!)  the hiss,improved the stereo image and channel separation,i've use some smooth dynamic compression,equalization and added a litte bit of reverb to create some ambience.  As final process i've maximed it with L3.  The sound is still a little bit raw and maybe crunchy but these are the limitations of the source.In Some portions of some tracks you can hear some echo.  This happened because the person responsible for the ald equipment leaved the audience microphones opened during the start or the end of certain songs causing a delay/echo in the sound.  The song "New year's Day" it's a clear example.  I've also removed all the little gaps and audio holes between the tracks to have a perfect and a smooth transition between them.  This remastering has been done to pay some justice to a
nice soundboard recording.The strange thing is the fact that both cds finish with "40".  Maybe and entire ald recording of both nights exists somewhere but who knows...By the way i hope you enjoy my release (the first of many more).  Thanks.
