05-08-01, Antwerpen Sportpaleis. This recording was made from internet MP3 files via www.u2bloodredsky.com. Sound Quality: Good audience recording. Some slight garbled after effect from MP3 though. Comments: As per usual U2's second night is the more interesting. 2nd night standard Sweetest Thing seems to have been given the day off. What set most people's pulses racing was the impromptu jam called I love you. It's just basically U2 diddling with a basic chord structure I've heared at previous shows prior to the beginning of One but now they take it a little further. Since Edge's birthday was close Bono made it Edge appreciation week and sang this for the Edge. Bono's just making up the words as he goes along as does the rest of the band. Like I said, a jam, but a lot of fans were thinking it was a whole new song. I better hope not. For a once happening jam it's a OK tune, but as a regular song its boring. |
