U2 interview on The Tube 1987

Paula Yates interviewing U2 just before the release of The Joshua Tree, February/March 1987

Bono was sooooooo gorgeous! And a very smart cookie too.

@Gerald kope Jeez dude, is Kathy your gf or something? Calm down with your jealousy.

[@RandyR]

Joshua Tree is one of my all time favorite albums. More than stands the test of time!

[@eiresaoirse3258]

Your so right the calm b4 the storm.....

[@goudagirl6095]

So interesting, on stage at this point they were music MONSTERS, Bono all over the stage, etc., yet in interviews they seemed to still have that "what are we doing here?" type of vibe, like they were afraid of being found out and scolded for being naughty boys or something. Very endearing. Of course...this was even before JT and how that blew them into even more stratospheric circles...not to mention the whole 1990s insanity to follow....

The 'With or without you' video was premiered later in the programme.

I remember watching this in /around March 1987. I loved the Tube and U2. I remember Paula Yates & Michael Hutchence!
This was so good before Joshua Tree. A loooooong time ago!!!!!!

Friday tea-time, March 6th 1987. The calm before...

[@gvn2fly96]

I was in fourth, unaware of the album that was soon to be released and that would become my favorite. I Still Haven’t Found was the first song that caught my attention.

El estilo de percusión distintivo, casi militar de Mullen, se desarrolló a partir de su interpretación de ritmos marciales en bandas de música infantiles.

Miembro de la banda desde su inicio, ha grabado 14 álbumes de estudio con U2.

[@adamcollins915]

Edge saying U2 were playing Wembley was making a statement - 'The Joshua Tree' was going to make U2 huge. Playing Wembley then was a big deal.

[@billdavies4276]

They had already played Wembley Arena on the Unforgettable Fire Tour. Waterboys played support . A great gig, I was there.

[@adamcollins915]

@@billdavies4276 That was Wembley Arena. Not stadium.

[@marklife_ox4]

Mare they talking about the hope and anchor in Islington?

[@Kayem967]

I remember finding Paula yates tattoo quite shocking at the time. It was sexy, but odd. Now it seems tame. We're clearly in the shit people

[@goudagirl6095]

Hello, have you met our raucous crazy far flung cousin, *2020?*

[@toddpeterson7405]

Bono behaving LIKE he just did 5 lines of coke, while Larry downs a lager without uttering a word.

[@namelessghoulphantom]

I do think he was popping X and smoking weed in this era. He it’s seems too relaxed and calm lol
