Desde a sua génese em 1999 que a U2Portugal procura a gravação do concerto de 11 de Setembro de 1997. Na sua 3a passagem por Portugal os U2 deram o que muitos consideram o melhor concerto jamais realizado em Portugal e um dos melhores da Popmart Tour.

Willie's Diary - Thursday September 11th, 1997

Lisbon show – Waves of joy. Fantastic crowd, so Willie joins them to soak up the atmosphere. Thursday September 11th Lisbon showday. Audiences in this part of the world are notoriously rowdy, so this run of great gigs continues unabated. This stadium - the Alvalade - has been refurbished somewhat since U2’s last visit. Its a large, enclosed bowl-like structure with wonderful acoustics, which enhance the already deafening singing of the audience. Such a great feeling to hear an audience like this - you feel like you’re surfing on the waves of joy that they produce. Mid-show I was overcome by a desire to be out amongst it all, so made my way up to the back row, the top of the highest bleacher seats in the whole place. It was such a fun journey - not easy to make fast progress, but being surrounded by such a jubilant pack of people you weren’t bothered about getting anywhere in a hurry, it was enough to just soak it up. I managed to soak up a good deal of other things too - beer, sweat and probably more besides - but crowds like this are what its all about. Such a high.
