NOTE: A nice recording, but not quite up to par with "Vertigo Chicago - Night Four". The sound is just a tiny bit distant and the clarity suffers ever so slightly as a result. Audience noise is a minor issue, with a few stray screamers and clappers audible in the foreground...mostly between songs. Overall this recording is notch below the same taper's recording from the night before ("Vertigo: Chicago Third Night"), leading me to believe that he was likely in a worse location for taping on this night.

After the video cameras that had been brought in to film the previous Vertigo Tour shows at this venue had been sent packing, the band obviously felt liberated. The result is a more energetic performance. Making this recording even more appealing is the somewhat random setlist that was played on this night. "Until the End of the World" makes its Vertigo Tour debut and "With Or Without You" is played for only the second time on the tour and includes a very cool snippet of "Strangers in the Night" (Frank Sinatra). Bono mentions Elvis Presley several times during the concert, apparently drawing inspiration from a fan behind dressed as Presley.
