This is a recording of a peculiar concert: The synthesizer producing the rattling sound during "Bad" breaks down at the beginning of the song and Bono tries to entertain the audience while technicians try to fix the problem. This improvisation ends in a impromptu version of The Beatles' "Rain". "Bad" has finally to be started without the synthesizer. The sound is good but lacks of crispness to be very good. Also numerous pops indicate a vinyl record as source for this CDR set. Due to this there are three edits audible: before "Wire", during Bono's entertainment program (costing Bono's sandwich joke) and one between "Party Girl" and "Gloria". Also "40" is cut after the "We are The World" part.
