Comments:
The Birmingham show is a good but incomplete one, missing I will follow and '40'. The soundcheck is like all soundchecks, interesting if you actually like to hear U2 discuss about their songs, but very boring if you get Two hearts beat as one four times in a row. The Gateshead show is also incomplete, but bonustracks rarely feature complete shows. When I received this boot the Gateshead tracks were insuffereably slow, almost a semitone and a half detuned. Totally attrocious to listen to, but I've managed to 'speed things up' as it were. They are now as they were meant to be, so if anyone is interested to obtain a copy of this boot, I have a copy withe the bonustracks up to speed. Don't get frustrated get the good stuff!
