NOTE: Achtungpop re-authored this DVD, mixing in a second audio stream.  The English audio stream is now Bono's earpiece feed, while the French audio feed is the audience audio from the source video.

The video is exactly the same as that on the "Swallowing the Big Apple" DVD.  Here are my comments for that title:

The video includes footage shot from two cameras, both located in the stands.  The overall quality of the video isn't quite up to par with that of other videos from this era.  My guess is that this video was put together by the same people as the 03 June 2001 two camera video ("The City That Never Sleeps").

There are some problems with the video at the beginning of "Gone".  The screen freezes for a few seconds and then video and audio skip to the opening words of the song.  In other words, the intro is missing.

The menu for this DVD lists the final song as "MLK/One",  but it actually includes "Rain", "One", and "Unchained Melody".  "MLK" was not played at this concert.
