Taper: JEMS
 

NOTE: About what you'd excpect from a JEMS master...excellent sound quality and clarity and a nice overall mix.  A few excited fans near the taper are audible on occasion, but their screems and cheers are pushed to the background for the most part.

Before counting off the beginning of "Vertigo", Bono sings "Goodbye! Goodbye!" instead of "Hello! Hello!"

The crowd holds up "Thank You" signs during "Elevation" and "One".  In the middle of "Elevation", Bono returns the favor by thanking the crowd. He turns and asks "What language do you thank in, The Edge?"  The Edge then thanks the crowd in Irish.  Bono, apparently wanting to show off a bit as well, then asks Adam and The Edge how to thank the crowd in Gaelic.  Not getting a response, he quips "Thank you very much."
