im so lucky that i had teen older brother that were in this scene. i was the only one in 5th grade who knew u2 was cool. Im so happy to be a NEW YORKER we always get the good music first. I wanted to see u2 in 1983 at Stonybrook but my mom said no because i was 12...lol
I was quite excited to see what they looked like after I bought the single and while watching this with my brother, he very accurately predicted "They're going to be big."
Wow, Snyder and those earmuff-sideburns! (The reference to "New York and Los Angeles" refers to the fact that "Tomorrow" - by this time struggling in the ratings and about to be supplanted by David Letterman - was split into two distinct scene-sets on each coast, with Snyder chairing the New York element and gossip columnist Rona Barrett presiding in Los Angeles. Segments jumped between the two locales rather abruptly, further confusing the late-night audience.)
Wow, The Edge with hair! Adam Clayton withe blond hair! Man they look young Tom Snyder may have been something of a stiff but he had some great bands on his show.
Big deal so U2 sold out every show! The Rolling Stones still do. Neither had good tunes in years. They live on there early success.
