I agree, only exception to me was the 350 tour and honestly I could hear that they were not as tight musically on that tour, imo. the physical distance was audible.

@@Will21st That’s spot on too. Even with in-ear monitors, technically it shouldn’t make any difference where you are onstage, but it does. I watched the set they did at Bonaroo and they were stripped down, playing close together and playing super tight. As a drummer, I hate when I’m on a large stage and nobody is near me. Maybe it’s just something about the vibe or not being able to see someone’s hands that makes it feel sloppy.

Freddie Mercury would have made good use of a stage that big, and bigger.

Even betteris that bono is from my neighbourhood..ballymun Dublin Ireland. An area rife with social problems. He was out hero

John Provo You would be surprised.Anyone that is a bit uppity bit brash ,a bit arogant will have there detractors in ireland ,the same with conor mcgregor have the country loves him the other including myself thinks he gives the country a bad name.A lot a people don't like bono they believe to be arrogant ,i am not a fan myself but saying that he is not on the same level as conor mcgregor.

@@galoglaich3281 I’ve personally never met an Irish person who doesn’t like Bono but I would agree that mcgregor splits opinion, I admire his success from having so little but I know a lot of people hate his personality

Nearly as cool, is having discovered them as an early teen in the early 80s and then have them provide the soundtrack to the rest of one's life. When I hear one of their songs, such as this one, it conjures up such poignant memories. Their albums are as roadside markers along the road that is my life.

There first irish tour 1978 included my home town in Sligo...in a bar called the blue lagoon...my sister was there....

Along with Comfortably Numb,Pink Floyd.Love them both.

@@colinmeehan791 o yeah

Arguably.

Amen to that.

Erm don’t think so. It’s very good but certainly not the best of all time.

I don't like guitar wizardry, it's lifeless most of the time, the player being limited by the technical side and rendering boring sounds.

Simple does not equal bad Complex does not equal Good

The Edge is a capital 'A' artist. As Rick Beato says, one of the best guitarists ever. Completely changed how a guitar could sound and made it mainstream.

@@redshift8302 maybe you've been listening to the wrong kind of wizardry? I mean The Edge is a wizard himself, in his own great way... it's just that there are so many incredible musicians out there nowadays.. especially in the realms of jazz and prog rock...

@@simpirx I'm just taking ths stance of 'purists' who think he's not got the talent to switch between chords like a virtuoso. They won't agree that the Edge is a good guitarist let alone a wizard.

Thanks for sharing, that was my first U2 show: October 1987 Cleveland Municipal Stadium.

@@ericgibson8796 Wow! Unfortunately I was over seas back then and missed the Tour. We can't go back in time, but this concert made up for it - to a certain extent : )

Was an awesome concert Igor and yes the jets were special : )

Dan Hill Twickenham is like croke park only that it is finished and just holds 300 less.

Thank god for cell phones.....you don't have to smuggle a video camera in these days : )

I have seen many live bands in my life and they are among the best. The vibe is just so great at a U2 show.

Spot on. They are unique.

Thank for my friend, appreciated : )

カッコいいっすよねぇ😆😆

Me too with the big Lemon ?

Not "the last great" band, better "one of the last great bands". But in 10 to 15 years ....who can make great concerts? I am very disappointed of the music industry cause of the music they Support! No Sound, no guitars, no drums, no melody.... music sucks since over 20 years

And Radiohead

Muse, maybe. Muse really do put on a hell of a show. But I get what you mean. The artists who do more than just stand there shoegazing are dying off!!! As is rock'n'roll in general.

Coldplay

Acting baby is my fav U@ album

Those generations gone before are beyond special in Ireland history.

Ivory Coast's flag but ok

@@robinlemoing6694 🇮🇪

there seems to be a drunk Scottish woman everywhere : )

BC place show was bad ass

been to both as well, amazing places!

because it was in July, it was light until 10pm or so. Show probably started about 8.30pm when they came on stage, so thats why it was still light. Thanks

no, it is actual TV screen technology

Kinda odd , yes agreed

indeed

Its fan footage. I was there as a fan - not as a film crew.

@@AlanR hhh you such a lucky man

Settle down. What did you give.

@@joepartipilo2885 I certainly gave much more than these 4 limo liberal hypocrites

@@timjohnson8820 you must have raised millions then or brought attention to so much crap. Good work. Sure.

@@joepartipilo2885 oh wow bringing attention to leftist bullshit is such an impressive accomplishment when you are on tour and TV. Such an accomplishment! Of course, nothing these hypocrites ever "bring attention to" requires them to give some of their own fortune to the poor, no does it? Nope. they just use the plight of the poor to preach about how horrible the rest of humanity is meanwhile they stash their hundreds of millions away in their private overseas bank accounts away from the tax man and never ever bother to use any of it for anything other then buying themselves mansions, jet planes, and living their luxury lives. And idiots like you applaud them and praise them the whole time they do it because you like the stupid music

@@timjohnson8820 Tim Johnson, I get that you represent solid greivances that are not isolated to just yourself and which should legitimately be looked at and addressed. I also, imo, think maybe you can be more fact-based and constructive in your communication of the issues. There are some solid points you can refer to for supporting what I think is your point, and there are facts about the band's philanthropy which also legitimately go against the premise of what it sounds like you're railing against. When you are simply insulting the music and fans, you lose credibility against legit problems you're maybe trying to present. To claim the band contributes zero is just not realistic. Instead, you can do the research and present an argument that, regardless of what you personally think of the music or fans, U2 is quite possibly both generous and hypocritical in its support of Irish based causes.

You do realize were the album was all about, don’t you?

This was The Joshua Tree Tour.. get a brain FFS

@@Zetep Yup. I get it. Even back in 87 when I first saw the Joshua Tree tour I always wondered how a bunch of Irish guys could possibly lecture America about our problems. Make your own bed first.

@@roscoeguy7679 yeah, keep wondering
