Getting JT On Fire isn't really such a good idea if you have Rocks
Hottest Ticket. The setlist of basically the same except for one
song, and the ad libs of Bono are basically the same. RHT has far
superior performances in WOWY and Bad. As for the rest of the songs,
there are hardly any differences since Bono's voice was equally good
in both nights and the arrangements of the songs are the same.
Sound-wise, the two boots you have are already better than JT On Fire.
JT on Fire is too sharp with the cymbals and everytime the letter "s"
comes out of Bono's lips, thus it doesnt sound that great. You would
really need a multi0channel high tech equalizer to rectify the sound
problems. The bass is a bit lacking too. The other boots Okorn
suggested may be better alternatives, only for setlist variation
purposes. The two boots you already have are representative of the
two best JT boots, one representing the best audience boot while the
other representing hte best soundboard boot from that era. Try
finding other JT shows where oddities like People get Ready, Cmom
Everybody, or other similar songs rarely played. The "Tear Gas" boot
is worth a look for teh 10:43 version of WOWY where someone in the
audience uses tear gas or somehting like that.
Cheers,
J
