  • I love Bono's dancing at the beginning xD

  • Comment removed

  • This is just amazing. They were truly amazing. So young, so raw, so idealistic, it's beautiful watching it happen. The days when U2 meant everything in the world to me--not too much now. You grow up, they grow up...it's rather sad. But thanks for the best damn memories ever!

  • Irish master piece!!!

  • When U2 were U2.

  • Bone, the Edge, none of 'em had any idea they were gonna be in the BIGGEST BAND IN THE WORLD! Gives me goosebumps.

  • Mascar33 you idiot

  • When they were at the best

  • As a bonO to have hair on end? u2 is the best!!! :D great video

  • When I moved from Philadelphia PA to Miami FL (1985 right out of HS) the entire catalog Boy to Unforgetable Fire (at that time) got me through the entire ordeal

  • Love their old stuff, to bad Bono turned out to be a nutcase.

  • to much reverb.

  • Indimenticabili!

  • Die wisten toen al goed waar ze mee bezig waren ....blij dat ik er toen bij was

  • one of U2 best classics

  • worst...clothes...ever

  • I was there the year after [83]. Same place front row. Here was the program : The Scabs, Warren Zevon, John Cale, Eurythmics, Simple Minds, U2, Peter Gabriel, Van Morrison. At a moment, for one song, Bono invited Annie Lennox and Jim Kerr. Great souvenir !!

  • bono is out of control

  • man, that guy's annoying.

  • I love them. Their music puts me in such a sonic place-nobody will ever replace them. They're one of a kind. I love Edge-his guitar playing is full of soul.

  • é maravilhoso , muito bom U2 sempre foi e sera a melhor banda . demais

  • I highly agree on that The Gripper 1

  • Talk about a band brimming with self-confidence that what they were doing was righteous. And unlike so many others, they were correct. The power and the glory is on full display here and barely contained. So much more uplifting than any religion - and although they identified themselves as Christians, they went to great lengths to say that they had much more in common with those still trying to find Jesus in their lives, and that is honest. It's real, and I feel the same way.

  • a band way ahead of their time even then wow ive never seen these clips from the early 80s they still have the same intensity as they did then. its nice to see a band whose music transcends the trends of their own time and always remains relevant.

    30 years strong and still rocking .!

  • j'adore son charisme

  • U2 wrote "Miami"

  • @extreme67 no they did not.

  • I like Bono with his tight pants en boots...

  • I want it! It would be awesome.

  • what's wrong with save sex ?

    Turbomecca :D

  • Shut up and enjoy the song!

  • it was no turd, it was your mother.

  • What can we say one of the best bands in the world.

  • The first years,the masterpiece of the Band.

  • it's exciting!

  • I love this consierto guess quee is one of the best in all his histia I am a fan of u2

  • I've still got the videotape but it's worn down, thanks for sharing!

  • 4:15 someone in a pinkjumpsuit on the camera track haha

  • the people giving edge his other guitars for the other songs look like they want to do something else. nowadays the guys who change the guitars are happy there doing that job

  • They probably had alot of things to do. Much easier nowadays.

  • I was there long time ago

  • william shatner was u2's singer then?

  • March 14th, 1982 saw them in Indianapolis. I was 14 and they opened up for the J. Geils Band. We left after U2 and my life has never been the same.

  • Great story! I can't believe you didn't stick around for "Angel in a Centerfold". You blew it dude.

  • haha deeadly¡

  • THEY was amazing in that days...they amazing now and always will be

  • @LoveAndPeaceOrElsee They're not quite so amazing now.

  • @Nigelxman Yea, having the highest grossing tour of all time is not amazing at all.

  • @Swissbanker77 You're right, it's NOT. Thanks for playing. :-) Interesting that concert attendence is your measure of talent. lol Sigh.

  • Ok, as a measure of talent: how about songs such as "Moment of Surrender", "City of Blinding Lights", "Beautiful Day", "Stuck in a Moment"- all evidence that U2 are just as amazing as ever. And you're right, concert attendence means nothing; but I think 7 million people who spent $800 million in the greatest economic downturn in 80 years would disagree with you. Typical 80's U2 bias bullshit. Next time, at least come up with an authentic way to bash the band, please. :-)

  • @Swissbanker77 Erm... I was a U2 fan way before you were even an embryo mate. :-) I know it might be hard for you, but try and accept that not everyone happens to have the same opinion as you. Having seen U2 more times than you have possibly been laid, I think I can make up my mind in terms of how good their recent stuff is and how good they are live these days. Try not to take things quite so personally. It's just OPINIONS...So relax and go listen to your favourite U2 song. :-)

  • @Swissbanker77 Honestly, to mention such a vapid, shallow, trite song as Beautiful Day as evidence for the enduring talent of the band (on the contrary, it actually marks the lowest point of their career) fatally weakens your whole reckoning (the grossing/selling data don't help neither). 1980-1992, i.e. from Boy to Achtung Baby, one of best band ever. Sometimes I get high and I'm prone to think THE BEST ever. After Berlin Bono became the joke he still is and the music went sorrowful.

  • @sunshag1 Whatever dude. You sound like a small breed of "ex-U2 fans" who enjoy shitting over their recent stuff while anointing their 80s music. Sure, Achtung Baby and Joshua Tree are greater than their new stuff, but there isn't nearly as wide a discrepancy as you make it out to be. It's just a load of noise making and drama on your part.

  • @sunshag1 And then you condescendingly disregard any hint that shows how amazing the band still is, because it disproves whatever you say. No other act in the world, besides the Stones, could have pulled off what U2 did with 360. It's certainly significant. And Beautiful Day has stood the test of time. Not only was it huge when it came out, but it still is 11 years later. Most songs don't survive that long. Of course, you'll brush it off as insignificant because it disproves your whole argument.

  • @Swissbanker77 Please relax fellow, I don't enjoy at all shitting on artists I used to adore and I still enjoy the best records of the band (do you?) of the band. I just think that at some point they started to do bad music and ugly shows. In my opinion, which cannot be disproved being strictly tied to my personal taste, Beautiful Day pretty much summarize the overall downfall of the band, despite being "huge" (by that I guess you are back to selling and cashing, don't you). Ciao.

  • is it me or does bono sound sick at this concert

  • In the video of "I Threw a Brick Through A Window" he says he lost his voice. So I think that's the reason ;-)

  • exactly: he says he lost his voice and if someone finds it, he can bring it back to him :)

  • every album of thiers maybe besides pop is phenomananl

  • These were the the songs of U2 in the early 80ties that make me love this band in those days next to the metals bands as a metalfan (Maiden, Anthrax, Metallica, Motorhead ect.) The Energy (Rebels)

  • What's amazing is that their version of "Out of Control" from the Elevation tour at Slane Castle is actually better than this fantastic version. Still Rocking!

  • they can make a stadium seem intimate thats why there so good and still at the top

  • Boy is perhaps one of my favorite albums ever, seriously

  • i was there that day.

    16 yo i was

    40.000 people welcomed U2 in Belgium,

    i also remember i was very drunk that day.

  • Brezhnev never told us.....

  • Great song, great video. does anyone know what this song is about?

  • its all f..king class except the popmart stuff

  • Yeah, old U2 is my preference as well. Everything before Joshua Tree.

  • I completely agree. Something happened (success?) that ruined the intimacy between U2 and me. War was the last album of theirs I bought.

  • i'd love to hear this song live... I went to their concert in Mexico City...totally out of control!!!

    u2 Rocks

  • Sure I prefer old U2 era too!

  • I'd say this was one of their best gigs, caught on film at least. a great time in their career, would have been great to have been there!

  • This is too much. Best u2 era hands down = best music in history. too much. BOY - WAR - OCTOBER = BEST EVER.

  • All which have been recently remastered. Tried to get 'em @ Target but they don't carry 'em. BestBuy is my next try

  • i had this concert on tape years ago , anyone know where to get it , thanks

  • Got it on DVD, wanna have?

  • my favourite group :') and my favourite guitar

  • Now that's rare...unreal!

  • This is a group that must be the best of the 80's en 90's .Give them a reaward for this .Thanks for all you music Bono and co

  • Where could I find this? I love tihs concert!

  • Argh! I used to have this whole concert on video that I recorded off the TV back in the 80s. I used to watch it literally every dayfor about a year! Ah - good memories, back in the Boy era and several years until Bono disappeared up his own Ego on The Joshua Tree.

  • Werchter RULES!!!
