(soundboard)
Rock's Hottest Ticket was considered by most die-hard U2 fans to be their best unofficial live recording for years. This version was recorded in Chicago, IL, on April 29, 1987, at Rosemont Horizon. The concert from Chicago is one of the best audience recordings out there and this performance is one of the band's best from the early Joshua Tree tour (which would stretch for 18 months). At shows later in the tour, Bono's interaction with the crowd seems rote, like he has only an average connection with the audience. In this show, however, the band seems very excited to be on top of the world. The set list is standard but excellent and includes a rare cover of Peggy Seeger's "Springhill Mining Disaster." Rock's Hottest Ticket is the best place to start collecting U2 live shows, and only a few others sound this good.
