Note******

I plan to share this on DIME very shortly after people start to get it on U2T - Please let me seed on DIME first as I want to keep my ratio up. I'm sharing here first but then on DIME for those who don't have a U2T account etc.

DVD 1 of a 2 DVD Set (I'll hopefully have the other DVD within the coming week of Aug 24th 2009)

Liberated this uncirculated material for the U2 Fanbase through a trade. Thanks for everyone for what they've shared & that I've been able to get here. This is a small payback to you all. Please share freely & do not sell for money.

Example of footage here (but real DVD is obviously much higher quality as You Tube compresses the video/audio)

1 DVD, Basic Intro & Menu with Chapters + 1 Bonus Track (Roug Cut Demo Mulitcam of Mysterious Ways)

Comments:

It's a decent 1 cam capture of the first half of the show. Most of the recording is very stable as its in the stands & there's not the major crush & jumping that occurs in the pit or GA part of the field. There's intermittent rain throughout the evening & the taper does a good job under the conditions. There's only a few very short seconds on occassion where the taper appears to be trying to protect his equipment & so the camera is sheltered but overall it have no large impact on the quality of the recording.

The sound is decent too (obviously not as good as a proper audio recording made by someone just taping audio). It is not in any way distorted or affected by wind noise thankfully so overall quite listenable.

Optical zoom is in use during fiming so this adds to the footage in that its not just a static shot, even though it is only one angle. The zoom range is decent & you can claerly see the band & also get an overall sense of the scale of the stadium when the taper zooms out.

There's a bonus track of Mysterious Ways multicam, but its only a demo / rough cut. Not all sources are good, but it is interesting to watch & the fact its multicam does add to it & make it worth seeing.
