U2 CROKE PARK 27-6-87 PROSHOT WHERE THE STREETS (U2mixer)

Everybody knows about the Anthem For The 80s UK TV documentary shown in 1987 - right?

Well, the documentary showed 'nearly' complete proshot clips of the band performing at Dublin Croke Park (27-6-87) but the footage was interspersed with interviews - which is always a pain in the ass!

So I decided to edit the footage with parts from the same performance to make it seem complete (not easy) and to mix in the soundboard recording from the same date (from the Soundboard Rarities bootleg).

So now we have a complete edited proshot performance of Streets from that date - I'll look at editing the other songs from the documentary if they contain enough footage to do so.

The version of the documentary I have is at least 2nd gen so the picture quality isn't great but good enough considering the original programme was shown 20 years ago and recorded onto video tape.

I haven't seen them since but am going to the gig in Croker this year and I can't wait to be back there and hopefully feeling 15 again!! great to see this footage again cheers U2Mixer...

The crowd bounce at the start is fantastic...the way a rock show should be....too many people these days are more interested in capturing stuff on their phones instead of rockin! Good to see this vid again cheers.

remember it so well!! Amazing/... my first U2 concert...jeez have goosebumps watching this!!!! :)))

The crowd is WILD at 1:10 and you think this is just because of the powerful intro. But at 4:50 they're still crazy. Too bad those timew are over.

And Larry's roadie is also enjoying himself at 2:08.

Ah the great memories of (probably) the best concert I was ever at! I see a posting above remarking on the big crowd surges, I was IN it and recall almost getting just feet from the front of the stage. One great day, I recall them starting off into "In Gods Country" immediately after this one.

was there on 27th june 1987 and I was 20. I still have the original ticket. I can see myself on this video. My three daughters loved it. I guess I was the only Brazilian in the crowd.

this is magic with everyone bouncing up and down. seen them on this tour in edinburgh. still love seeing u2 but last i was up at the front and trapped behind some guy who did not join in any singing and spent the whole concert filming on his phone. dont understand why people do that at all.
