The show was taped from the upper ranks off Edge's stage side, approximately at the height of the B-stage. The camera is constantly shaking, getting extremely worse when the taper zooms in on one of the band members. Because of the tremor, the close-ups are unfocussed. The stage totals are a bit better but due to the significant distance, the band members appear tiny in front of the massive LED wall. The view is unobstructed most of the time. Sometimes a head or clapping hands pop into the picture. Colours are defined and crisp when the camera is not shaking too much. Between COBL and "Miracle Drug" is an edit, killing only audience noise. Audio quality is good to very good.
