Taper: by Daspyknows & team
Location: Recorded dead center 2/3 way back from stage on mic stand appx 7 feet high. 
Source: Schoeps CCM441 into Sony PCM F-1/Sony SL2000 Betamax
Lineage: Transferred from master tapes by Nick C using Sony PCM601 / Processed using Soundforge 11 / TLH to convert to Flac

Notes:
This is a fresh transfer from the master PCM Beta tapes. Here is the history of this recording. When U2 announced they were playing we planned on going Saturday the 14th and had a friend rent us a pair of Schoeps mics from Gassar Sound in SF. They asked him where his studio was located and he gave the address of his protography studio since center field at the Oakland Coliseum would not have worked. The mics cost $75 for the weekend and were due back Monday.  We had help bringing in about 60 lbs of gear and found our spot. The crowd during the opening act was unruly. At one point I was kicked in the face by a chick in combat boots trying to get through the crowd. We had to retreat and missed the opener. We went back for U2 and got a recording but we realized after the show one of our cables was bad due to the crazy crowd. Since tickets were cheap we decided to go back for the second night.  For this night we brought 2 big guys from Sweden who were friends of a friend to help us. We also brought a mic stand and had our security friend stand with us in uniform. The idea was if someone came to bust us he was already doing that. We put the mics on the stand and set it at about 7 feet in front of the soundboard. Since it was Sunday, the crowd was easier and we succeeded in making the first digital U2 recording. The show was amazing and the sound was really good. Given U2 is touring 27 years later this is a perfect time to post a new transfer of the show.
