18-08-01, London Earl's Court Arena. Sound Quality: Good audience recording. Comments: The first of 4 London shows. All in all there were 3 cities with 4 back to back shows and the amount of setlist variation dropped at every such place. Chicago had 4 varied shows, Boston had less setlist variation and London even less. That can be forgivven though since at the time Bono's father was terminally ill with cancer and he was flying back and forth to Dublin every night. In such cases your heart is not really in taking time to devise a new setlist. Anyhow, London I sees the standard leg 2 1st night setlist. There's some digital flutter towards the end of CD 1 but since this is the cut version of Bad and it's started again in full on CD 2 who gives a shit. |
