Sound Quality:
Either good soundboard or excellent audience. There is some audience talking audible in the beginning which is not very soundboard. There are some soft pops here and there but the quality is that much better than the other Vegas boots that it's hardly distracting

Comments:
Finally a good boot from the opening Vegas show. And at good quality. If sound quality is what you are after, get this one. There are some detractions though. There is some strange editing with fade outs between certain songs. The greatest mystery is why there are two Do you feel loved on this CD. To my knowledge it was only played once. The Lemon remix was also edited out.
About the show. After listening to many, many popmart boots, I consider this the most interesting Popmart show. U2 is trying to put Popmart together and it still needs hefty rework. The lads fuck up big time in Staring at the sun (the full electric version I might add). The crossover between Please and Where the streets needs working over. Also they play full live versions of If God will send his angels and If you wear that velvet dress. HMTMKMKM starts completely differently than regular Popmarts, more Batmanlike. A great embryonic Popmart.
