AUDIO: 2010.12.13 Sydney, Australia Blackout's Approved Remaster


U2 - Sydney, Australia
ANZ Stadium
13th of December 2010 [Blackout's Approved Remaster]

Churchaudio Cardioids > CA Pre-amp > Edirol R09 > Adobe Audition

ANZ stadium had actually announced in it's visitor information for this show that it was ok to bring personal recorders, as long as the recording is not used commercially! So, is this one of the first truly legal U2 torrents? Did the band have a say in this?
I recorded from about 5 meters in front of the soundboard, which is about 50 meters away from the stage, pretty much from the centre.
I moved occasionally to dutch fans that were a little too enthusiastic, or drunk, or both.

[Blackout Comments:]

This was an excellent recording that had a few transfer and mastering issues, which needed to be addressed. After some work and with gwrang's request and approval here is a superior transfer of the master that has now been been mastered to allow this recording to truely shine. There were many processes applied to this recording here which were not addressed in gwrang's original release, particially to address significant imbalance between the two mics in level and frequency response. The bottom end has had significant micro-attention, with the resultant bottom end now being tight and solid. The recording is now frequency balanced, transient controlled and a joy to listen to. There is no doubt this version has helped to give this recording several extra ratings points as a result. Congrats gwrang on a great recording, we are glad you took your rig on the day!

U2 returns to Winnipeg for the first time since Popmart (which was my first ever U2 concert back in 1997)
Throughout the band changeover, the scrolling screen refers to "Winipeg" which certainly doesn't go unnoticed
by the fans, or the band for that matter.

The Royal Canadian Air Force does a flyover just before the show starts.  The Poem before "Beautiful Day" is
actually the lyrics to "You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet" by Winnipeg's Bachman Turner Overdrive.  Despite "Moment
of Surrender" being on the printed setlist, the show ends after "With or Without You" either because of the
curfew or because of the ever dropping temperature.

Overall a pretty nice recording of a great night, there is a little wind pressure from time to time (which I
really only noticed in the quieter/acoustic spots of the set) but it was really quite windy in this small,
open-ended stadium.  Special thanks to the drunken idiots behind me, thank god for hypercards!
