The seat I had was exceptionally good, first rows in front of the PA. In addition, I could move a few meters away 
from the rest of the audience so that applauses were less clear in the recording. If you ask me for a comment on this show,
it is difficult to say. I've seen U2 in different situations, first when they were still a cult band in 1985 and then
through its change till they were a band playing in stadiums. I liked their show very much but U2 could give their best
in more intimate situations, if you know what I mean.

Mysterious Ways had its premiere on tour that evening and it was dedicated to Johnny Hallyday who was attending the show.
Johnny knows this stadium very well since he had sold it out several times in the past, including a very recent farewell
performance a few months ago.

So here it is, this is my version of the 2nd night in Paris and it sounds very good to my ears.
