LDB Special Series #90

Out of my 7,000+ shows and radio broadcasts, I have many concerts that were special for some reasons: the setlist, the
musicians, the venue or unexpected events. These are the ones I'd like to propose you. Most of these come from my
cassettes collection, so they will be released at a slower pace than my Master Series! But you won't be disappointed!
I will try to gather the most unusual things I have in my collection and, as always, your feedback and comments will be my
reward for all the work involved in this project.

DO NOT share this music on mp3, just convert it for your own use. Sharing mp3's is the right way to make me stop sharing
music here.

Haven't seen much of the US Conspiracy of Hope Tour around, so here is one, This is the first show of that short tour. I
have here the two sets I think were the best ones: Sting and U2. Both performances are solid and the audience seemed to
enjoy the show a lot. U2 opened the show with C'Mon Everybody which was not performed anymore during the tour. They hadn't
played on tour since July 1985. Sting had just completed his first solo tour so the band was well. Fortress fades in before
Sting starts to sing, so there must be no more than 2 minutes missing.

Soundwise both are very nice, I would say a solid 9. You will hear some screams here and there during the show but nothing 
really disturbing if you are used to the wild reaction of US audiences. If you are fans of these two bands, I may not
want to miss this download.

Enjoy!
