Comments: This show marks the end of a five night stint in New Jersey, and the last night of the first leg of the Joshua Tree tour.

The show is almost complete--the taper starts in the middle of "Stand By Me", and misses a few beginning notes of "40."
While the sound is a little muffled at first, it improves quickly.
The one strange thing about this source is that between songs, a person sometimes blows what sounds like a New Year's Eve type horn. It's not that loud or distracting (and the person doesn't generally toot during songs, thankfully), but the horn tooting does help identify this particular source.

No cover available for this show.
