I often wonder what Bono and the boys think when they see themselves in video 25-30+ years ago, when they were on the brink of world domination and they didn't know then what they know now. Thanks for the post, I love seeing all things U2, but especially things from the good old days when they were just so exciting and YOUNG!
"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,[f] that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 18Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son.[g] 19This is the verdict: Light has come into the world
U2 is amazing!!! i lovee the album october! what gets me wondering though, is that Bono does so much in Africa to help the people there... in this video, Larry Mullen Jr. is wearing a jacket with a confederate flag on the back, hahaha its kinda funny. he is an amazing drummer!
When I watch this I smile a feet wide, just like U2 guys when they go way back and see this. They were punk rock noise makers trying to play symphonic anthems. Like church anthems played by Boomtown Rats or The Clash. Funny like hell. 20/21 year-olds.
Great vid!!! U2 in 82... i has 15 years old... My times of school... my first passion, love... and my first LP of U2 (October)in my vacation in the beach. Good times and songs more intense...
nigelxman relax w/ SOMEONE THINKING LARRY M. IS THE GREATEST DRUMMER IN THE WORLD. MAYBE HE IS,TO THAT PARTICULAR PERSON, BESIDES ALL THOSE DRUMMERS U LISTED CAN'T COMPARE TO THE LIKES OF A BUDDY RICH OR MAX ROACH ,GENE KRUPA,ART BLAKEY......
I'm curious hosdurga....How may times have you posted that Larry Mullen Jr. is the best rock drummer of all time? U2 is my favourite band of all time but to say that Larry is the best drummer of all time is pretty ridiculous. And more than a little ignorant. You might want to broaden your musical horizons mate. Here are a few drummers you may want to try listening to. Ginger Baker, John Bonham, Keith Moon, Stewart Copeland, Neil Peart.

this was a different u2 then. I personally love this track the way bono sings his high notes and edge ripping those cords from his six strings.

In a lower key than the record though. The version on October really sends chills with the notes Bono hits.

hosdurga is right. Larry Mullen Jr is the "greatest rock drummer of all time"
His techniques, timing and crisp hitting is untouched. Plus he has evolved so much too.
Nice call mate.

Gotta say, Bono reminds me of a Christian who has forgotten his roots - all of them ( not the hair :) ).
