===================================================================================================================

Some fans (at least 15), were smart enough to go for a drink in the afternoon in the bar of the stadium. 
U2 soundchecked in the afternoon. 
The soundcheck was taped next to the bar of the stadium.
After the sound check Bono went to the waiting fans outside the stadium to give autographs.
In the evening a dress rehearsal took place.

It took me some time before i got the right place to tape, also the recording level was way too loud at the start of the recording, but after 5 minutes everything was under control, except the wind. Also my friend Bart was not aware of the fact that i was taping.

===================================================================================================================

If you have complaints about the quality, the lineage, the ... please delete the files, and don't whine.
It's there for everyone to trade, not to sell. 

If you have a better version, come out with it. 
If you don't like it, buy yourself some equipment and record it yourself. 

I did what i could, so, this is it. And to me it's a nice souvenir for what was a great day.
