No drugs, no ODs, no fighting, no drunken concerts, no members quitting, no car accidents, no hotel thrashing.. just well behaved Irish boys making great music for 40 years.

My God I love them til the cows come home (what an absurd expression). Rejoice! Not a song I readily heard them play live very often but I just love how they’re just going for it. U2 we’re not going to be denied!!!

Their tranformation from when they filmed the video for "I Will Follow" to this was amazing. In 1980 they were just kids, by the time of this concert in 1981, a mere one year later, they were rock stars.
The 80s were simply the greatest decade. Everything was so pure, with such raw energy. How they won over the Germans is simply magic.. Bono has such an energy.. Insane!
I remember collecting bootlegs of early U2 shows in the mid-80's, never imagining of a thing called the internet giving me the videos of these early shows. When they came to the US, I recall that they opened for the J.Geils band. When I saw them in 1984, the Waterboys was opening for them. Tickets were really cheap, too!
You are correct about them opening for J. Geils Band. A friend of mine went to see them (J. GEILS) in Tallahassee FL and came back with killer stories about that concert. About how no one could hardly understand what Bono was saying between songs because of his thick accent. But finally my friend deciphered that he was exhorting everyone in the somewhat sleepy crowd to GET UP and DANCE.
For those who really understand the feeling, I love all U2, but this is so s Epic, impossible for young People to understand it, nothing personal, but for us, there was no internet, this was so mysterius, so analog.
Exactly my feelings. The myth that formed around my early heroes, such as U2, was so exciting! Saving money to buy a new LP or a new magazine with interviews or posters of them, was such a huge part of my youth. Today, music has lost so much of its appeal and value...
Raw and Uncompromising. The world and the UK/Ireland were ushering in the days of post-punk. This was U2's hardest hitting time of sound. The world would wait for what they would become... One of the greatest bands of all time.
Recall seeing them at a college dance Early 85 or so- running videos. People just stopped dancing and started watching the video because they were so cool!
I bought this when it was first released and for me, it's never been bettered as an album. They've certainly written some great tracks since but this is THE album.
Mahalo nui(much thanks) for not having commercials!! It makes such a massive difference for the listening experience. Every time I watch this I feel so electrified!! Wish I was old enough to have seen this show. It sounded so epic. Much gratitude from Hawai'i for your work.
I've played the early studio albums for decades, practicing conservative use in later years being more selective when I play them, not wanting to 'wear them out'. Even so, these live recordings from that era are new to me, giving these songs a very welcomed freshness!
I threw a brick and twilight on this are unreal ...u2 early stuff is as good today as all those moons ago ..rember going to see them age 16 Liverpool royal court 81/82 the power of the sound was incredible
Real music, without Computer influence! So much better and pure human! Only People with a good voice made it big in the 80’s and before! The early U2 and the early 80’s sound are making a comeback in 2023/2030
@@Warrogue1 I was stunned at Bono's charisma. I was a veteran concert goes by that time, and I had never seen anything like it. When he sang "Give me your money" people rained it down from the balcony at the Palladium.
Nice surprise for me that 'I Fall Down' and 'I Will Follow' were included this time, though! 😃 They'd omitted it when I recorded it off the TV onto VHS tape many moons ago.
MY LETTER TO U2-1987 I saw you guys on the Joshua Tree tour in 1987 at MTSU-Middle Tennessee State University Saturday November 28th 1987. The Bodeans opened up for you. I remember at the time Larry had a crush on Wynonna Judd and she came out and sang a duo with Bono! I didn't have tickets to the show. A friend of mine drove us 3 hours from East Tennessee to see the show. We bought tickets at the box office for $18.50. We ended up 8th row center stage! I remember back then the band held back tickets for fans who were willing to make the drive and couldn't get tickets via phone or record store locations. Thanks again to Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton, and Larry Mullen Jr for making a special album and tour! I was 18 and had just graduated High School that year! All the Best! Gary Lagstrom
Saw them first time in 80 or 81. They played exactly this set. You could stand before the stage like almost 1 m away from the musicians. Those were the times.
Quand je pense à ces daubes de Song of Innocence/Experience et que je vois ce concert ! La vieillesse est un naufrage également pour les Rock Bands. De toute façon, rien ne peut remplacer U2 dans le coeur de ma génération.
i feel like modern bands stole from u2 to make generic music but at the time of the early 80s i can see how this was amazing, in context of the times, it feels like a brand new type of sound, its pretty amazing what they did at those times.

@@dominiquetourdot3215 and the joshua tree 👍
Yeah. Early u2 ..when I need to feel the real.
Shut up.
No drugs, no ODs, no fighting, no drunken concerts, no members quitting, no car accidents, no hotel thrashing.. just well behaved Irish boys making great music for 40 years.
Actually at this point in their career they wanted to sack Adam Clayton.
i think the drummer was caught with a pile of dope in his car 20 odd years ago
@@zenithoclock1048 was just about to say that unfortunately wasn't the case with Adam. He even admitted that he covered it up so well....until he had to miss a show once
Leave to a born again moron to make R&R sound boring...
well there was that time Adam and the drunk driving charge but we in Ireland dont talk about that 🤣🤣
No smartphone, no bullshit, just perfect music

This IS the real U2 - Raw, ballsy, fiery & original.
Thanks for that

early U2 = best U2
no doubt!
Indeed! I cherish the first 4 albums and the demo songs. They lost it after that.
The best U2 years.
The 80s were simply the greatest decade. Everything was so pure, with such raw energy. How they won over the Germans is simply magic.. Bono has such an energy.. Insane!
omg the sound through my headphones is divine. This is an act of God!
They were kids but then again those of us who went to their shows and bought their albums 1980-1983 were kids then, too.
What an early treasure...

My aunt saw them on the October tour here in Oklahoma City. They played at Oklahoma University college in one of the gyms.

Man.. so good. come out with this set today they be tops again.

Absolutely
Wonderful times. Now everything is so lifeless
those 40 years before you probably said the same thing when you were young, as is life.
im 17 yrs old now.. and i wish i had that memory too lol

This is awesome... U2 in its prime with good video and audio quality 👌

I’m old, female , from Chicago born & raised- living this amazing moment in all of its glory!!
To think, no one there knew this band would become one of the biggest bands in the world
nothing better, a concert in a small club , with each musician at theit best, close to the people ..This is U2 !!!
Those early U2 albums were great. Loving the Edge's strat....very sexy
Recall seeing them at a college dance Early 85 or so- running videos. People just stopped dancing and started watching the video because they were so cool!
So young and full of energy. Ready to conquer the world. Thanks for posting.
U2 in their true prime, fabulous gig!
I was 2 that year. When I was about 6 and my sister 3, our mum bought us U2 t-shirts. I still remember how the older boys envied us.😅
I'm 50. I remember that time....a long time ago, but I still enjoy this songs. U2 at their best.
Totally agree and I’m 50 aswell
Was at this gig. October album on display. I'm a year younger than Bono, only 60. Cool times.
October and boy two and the great album.🤩.from France 👍
me too March 18th 1963..U2
Only discovered this gig today. WOW, U2 at their best. Powerful and simply brilliant
Same
I bought this when it was first released and for me, it's never been bettered as an album. They've certainly written some great tracks since but this is THE album.
Another time, another place. U2 at their best ! Quelle énergie !
22:47 no sweeping, no shredding, great guitar sound, lot of energy, the king of music that I would like to do.

U2 é demais😃😃
They sound so great. It was already all there. Ready to take over the world. I'm good for about four albums. After that I couldn't really believe it.
U2 is one band that I can think of that is more appreciated at the start of their career
Yeah I grew up with them. I stopped after Zooropa.
Wow...U2 in the early 80's...at their best!love this performance...great Setlist!😍perfect sound and image...thanks for the upload!
❤❤🎵🎶🎸🥁
11 o'clock tick tock.....the Edge is just so bad ass.....sublime....

I saw them the same year in NYC for the Boy tour. Raw and badass. Never saw a band like that since.
I saw them on that tour also. They were electrifying.

Quem viveu viveu, queria estar lá na plateia, Berlin, anos 80, U2 ao vivo, tudo de bom! Ô época boa, não tem comparação!
Watching this one for the first time, i miss "A day without me"... I hope no one other track will be cutted.
Nice surprise for me that 'I Fall Down' and 'I Will Follow' were included this time, though! 😃 They'd omitted it when I recorded it off the TV onto VHS tape many moons ago.

Outstanding! Boy i think is their best album. Thanks for sharing.
Fantastic... Great band. U2 is the best

I love The Unforgettable Fire too but the first 3 are pure magic. Also the demo's hold a special place in my heart. So sad what has become of them.
The Best show ever!!!!!
Anos 80 volta pelo amor de Deus ....
Ah...the joy of youth....good upload 👍
I think Bono is just 22 here. Phenomenal.
This show or before was the birth of U2!
