@LithgowlovesBJ They did actually have to be good once to get to where they are today!

@sparkomatic I totally agree that Bono's performance was emulating Jim Morrison here. That wasn't the issue I was commenting on. What I was responding to was the comment made that this performance must have been after the Oliver Stone Doors movie.

Bono at a very young age was able to command a massive stadium audience. Pretty amazing stage talent.

@ceallach67 There was actual footage of JIm Morrison doing this schtick. I wish I could remember from where, I would reference it. I was at this show, and at the time, I'd already seen the footage of Morrison doing this bit. But that's OK. Musicians "borrow" from earlier acts all the time. Angus Young does a variation of Chuck Berry's duckwalk. it's all good. I agree with the other poster that Bono was channeling Jim Morrison to some degree at this time.

God is great!

True but you can hear and see the influences here. Hardcore.
-
this footage was well before The Doors film.

This is when they really rocked. Pre Joshua Tree era.

wow U2 used to be good... I never would have called that

This is a amazing. The Joshua Tree was just around the corner... the Edge was already wearing a hat. The opening to Maggie's Farm is very reminiscent of the loop to Mothers of the Disappeared and Bono is using the spotlight an act he was to repeat on the Joshua Tree tour. A fascinating glimpse into a time when no-one could predict the awesome album they were about to release the next year.

Not bad, but what you're really looking for is the Rage Against the Machine version.
The music builds up, and as you feel the growing deception, you start to feel the anger starting to boil inside of you.
Besides, the "Turn out the light, mister" is straight from a Doors concert, just look The End song
