NOTE (by Blackout, distributed with .flac files): This recording is good...but its not as good as my (infamous) Melb 18th. Theres a few reasons why.
It was recorded with the same equipment. The difference in quality is solely due to my position, namely being in front of the main stacks. The main Vertigo speaker stacks are quite crap sounding...scooped with their frequency, lots of top end and mud bass but not much else. They are also not very loud. They are heavily filtered to avoid microphone feedback from Bono as he walks out and about directly in front of them, and the speaker level is quiet as Joe tries to reduce stadium reflections. So the result is a less flat-sounding recording, with more audience noise. Still..its ok overall. I wish now that i had walked around and gone to the same spot as melb 18th...but then i would have seen nothing.
I flew into Adelaide and out the next day, just to make this recording. There was a pat-down this nite as opposed to metal detectors which was good. U2 seemed to have a good time, although there was not as much talking between songs, Bono did make a few unique moments and comments which was cool. Pretty standard setlist, ended up like most of the other Australian shows.
