I was working at the Arizona Biltmore hotel in 1987 as a valet parker. We had lots of. bands that stayed at the hotel (GnR, Heart, etc). U2 stayed there for the concerts that Eddie is talking about in this video. I saw them come and go in and out of the hotel over the 4 or 5 days they stayed several times. One time, a limo pulled up and the Edge got out and handed me a guitar case and asked me to take it to his room. Gave me a $5 tip. I said that I would get it to his room. When they left, another worker said he had a camera in his car and we took photos of us with the Edge's famous Gibson Explorer. I still have the picture. U2's manager went around to hotel workers and asked if we wanted free tickets to the show. I got 6 tickets to each show at Sun Devil stadium. True story.
We brought a giant banner that we'd made to the Biltmore hoping they'd sign it. Security kept us on the other side of the driveway island. Bono actually came out and autographed it, much to the chagrin of security. One of my best memories ever. Both were so nice!
One of the greatest albums and tours of all time. It is hard to conceptualize nowadays just how big the Joshua Tree Tour was. No online tickets. No social media. Just hundreds of thousands of kids waiting in line.
Somewhere in my digital files I have a scan of my ticket stub to U2’s Joshua Tree tour concert in Las Cruces, NM in 1987. The price was around $17.00. We were less than a basketball court’s length away from the stage. Still the best damned concert I ever went to. I paid $250.00 for one ticket to their Joshua Tree Anniversity Tour in 2017. We were more than a football field’s length away from the stage.
@@keithhepworth4934 had to be a little more. JT tour was about $20 a ticket I think Was so long ago. Those were hard to get .Had to call and luck out I did All 3 NY shows in Spring They came back in Fall .I did pay $11 in 1983 for War Tour. That included fees .
Spot on. I will add one thing to what you said. It will make me sound old. But I don’t care.. No fkn cell phones. Just the pure spiritual experience of one of the greatest albums ever written being performed by the band at its peak in a crowd of 50,000 people. I still get goosebumps thinking about it.
Also for the younguns...I'm 58 by the way. Eddie Vedder has sold out and sold his soul just like U2 to the Leftist Marxist establishment, the World Economic Forum and Globalists all over God's Green Earth. None of these artists are actually for the people even though the proclaim they are. They wouldn't know real democracy if it bit them on the ass. They think socialism is some kind of joyride for the little guy. Enjoy the music, but do not worship these people and do not listen to their opinions on climate change, vaccines, digital passports or anything else. They are in bed with some of the biggest scum on the planet all for the almighty dollar, some silly political awards and popularity. When you feel your freedom slipping away, fight like hell to keep it because you might not ever get it back.... WWG1WGA! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
For you very young younguns, Eddie Vedder is the lead singer of a rock group called “Pearl Jam” that formed 33 years ago, and released a seminal debut album titled “Ten” one year later. 😁
It's amazing to think that Bono is only 4 years older than Eddie. He was tending gas pumps when U2 was hitting the top of the mountain. 2 very different journeys to get to where they are today. I love em both.
I always felt that for those of us who grew up with `Mount Rushmore` bands like the Stones, the Who, Zeppelin, Floyd, etc, U2 gave us a huge lift to the 80s that was desperately needed. Saw U2 play an unbelievable show in the old JFK stadium in Philly in 1987. Great story and great cover!
I had never thought of it like that. But you’re absolutely right. U2 was kind of a bridge band from the era we grew up with those bands you mentioned, to get us to the next era of rock which took shape in the late 80s-early 90s. As an aside, I was at that show at JFK. I had already seen them a couple weeks before at the Spectrum. But it was so good I wanted to see them again. Even though JFK was such a dump, It was well worth it. It was a totally different animal to see it outdoors with 90,000 people as opposed 17,000 people at the Spectrum.
Dude, I was at those 2 same shows. To this day one of the best memories I hold. Somehow my parents let me and my friends travel there from LA ... I WAS 15!!!!! My mom was the coolest lady.
Wow what an incredible version of such a great song. What a wonderful story as well. But man Eddie has such an incredible way of taking somebody’s great song and turning it into something even more beautiful with his own personal style. Absolutely incredible. Thank you for capturing and posting this. 🤠🤠
Great cover. I saw the U2 Joshua Tree tour in Hartford, CT that spring and it was fantastic. Loudest ovation I've ever heard at a show was when they walked out onstage.
Those shows are posted on UA-cam somewhere (search U2 Hartford 1987). Years ago, I messaged the person who posted them, and he sent me the soundboard recordings of the night I saw! One of the best versions of With or Without you is from that show.
Very nice and great to hear Eddie's personal love of U2 from the 'early' days....for some early is 1982, but 1987 is early enough for me as was only 12 and listening to Huey Lewis and the News at the time ☺️
I love that story as well. My first time seeing U2 was 1985. I am from San Diego and I bought my tickets for the 1987 shows at the same Tower Records store he mentioned. It is sadly long gone now.
These two U2 shows Eddie speaks about were important moments that inspired generations of rock and roll history. There's no doubt Vedder and Pearl Jam would have flourished without U2, but we can't deny the connection.
I'm not surprised but I'm surprised. Eddie just has boundless passion and he puts everything, into every note, every breath, every second of every song. What a legend. What a puckin legend mang.
100% with you on this - some high school mates played this song in front of a Catholic School audience. I thought the priests were going to pass out from the uncontrollable excitement from the student body back in 1987. U2 and the Police were the soundtrack of my youth and in the years since the music of Ed, Chris Cornell (RIP), PJ and Soundgarden have rounded things out. When Ed does stuff like this it just reinforces what an all-time special talent he is. Love it.
As a kid I watched U2’s concert film Rattle and Hum about 100 times, we wore out the VHS. To imagine that those shows tickets were only $5!!!! Wow!!! Eddie is such a great story teller!!!
I didn't know Eddie was such a big U2 fan earlier in life! A fan yes! Waited for tickets outside Rosemount Horizon that never came for Joshua tree tour. Remember feeling so free at Wilmont ski hills with In God's country playing in line to go up. Nice version!
I hope Eddie continues to cover lots of U2 songs. (Maybe he already does). He does an outstanding job and I don't see how U2 would mind at all as he truly does the songs justice and makes them FABULOUS! MORE, please, Eddie!
I was at one of those shows in San Diego in 87. Back then it was Jack Murphy stadium. Got two tickets and took a girl I had a huge crush on. We kissed in the middle of that show. It was such a magical night.
Saw U2 twice in Philadelphia in '87.Waited in line to get tickets for the JFK Stadium show at first,but we decided to go wait in the Spectrum line to see them at the smaller venue.Glad we did because i ended up winning tickets from a radio station for the JFK show.
Iowa City Oct 20, 1987. A special night indeed. I slept in line all night long for 2 tickets on ‘The Hill’ in Cedar Falls Univ of N. Iowa. A night of fond memories with my friend Tony from Iowa State. Earlier that year in 1987 I was a senior in HS, in the hospital for a 3rd time, having lost a lot of my senior year to recovering from 3 spontaneous lung collapses. I listened to Joshua Tree on my walkman over and over while in that hospital bed. For us, we will always remember the anticipated last song of the concert, ‘40’, and the chant ‘how long must we sing this song’ at the very end as U2 did back in those days.
I was just out of boot camp at the Navy base in San Diego, and I went to those Joshua Tree shows too! I still have an unopened concert poster from that tour. Don't even remember what's on it but I want to leave it shrink-wrapped. Great story, Eddie Vedder! Strange we were there at the San Diego Sports Arena watching the same show as fans, then to have high school classmate, Dave Krusen wind up drumming on PJ's Ten. Small ass world!
I could and do love to listen to him talk almost as much as I love hearing him sing. He's my King this day and all days to come. He's the love of my life and a blessing to humanity ❤️ My immortal and darling Eddie Vedder sings everything with great energy and love. Can you imagine how many years the hours on stage amount to? He's a treasure to those who love him and understand his giving soul. Can't find a better man than the Vedder man.
I love his stories I absolutely love the man Eddie Vedder and so nice to see Josh, their both busy guys . Thank you for sharing this awesome video 😊💓🤘✌️Truly appreciated it.
Saw U2 at Murrayfield Edinburgh August 87. They started with Eddie Cochrans “come on everybody” Great memories for a then 18 year old. Love Eddies version & the fact he’s a U2 fan
a song from a time when U2 still made good music, different from today 😥😥. Eddie's interpretation is great. I miss the days when U2 made such kind of music.
Their last two albums had some great songs on them but you are probably just an angry old stubborn man who refuses to listen to them now . They would have been boring if they kept releasing the same album over and over again
@@paulmcgrath6118 you can call it that if you want. maybe we just have different demands on good music. I just don't listen to every piece of shit that a few commercial clowns throw at me. Better listen to coldplay...
I was fortunate enough to see them in Oakland on that leg on the tour in 87 also still to this day the greatest concert I’ve ever seen. And by the way I have seen them 8 times and the last one was the 30th year anniversary on the Joshua Tree tour. Thanks for sharing this!
I could listen to him tell stories all night at these shows. They are always amazing and then backs it with a great song. I was lucky to see Eddie solo and man was it a show, I plan to see more in the future, they are just awesome. Eddie in my view will go down as one of the greatest, keep on rocking in the free world Ed.
Completely agree. Especially about the “telling stories“ part. One of my favorite shows I’ve ever been to was James Taylor about 10 to 12 years ago on his One Man Band tour. Basically the show was what you just described Eddie is doing here. It was just him and his acoustic guitar. He had a slideshow. He told the stories about what the songs were based on. Stories about how he wrote them. Got super vulnerable with meanings of his songs. It was absolutely incredible. This video definitely has a feel like that show.
@@alexandriaocasio-smollett5078 I saw Chris Cornell at his show just like Eddie is doing . Chris was doing a solo story telling style tour, to say it was one of the greatest events I saw would be an understatement. So glad I went since Chris passed on some time after, I am happy to have been a part of his story just for a few hours anyway.
Imagine being the guy who sold those 8 U2 tickets to some random kid in 1987 and have no clue that kid would then go on to create one of the greatest rock bands in history and even play a significant part in inducting/honoring that very band (U2) at the Kennedy Center.. and most likely still have no clue it even happened.
Still have my unused ticket from that $5 show. One of my great concert misses, along with Pearl Jam, Nirvana, and the Chili Peppers at ASU Activity Center
@Jennifer HA didn't know who Peal Jam was yet (album hadn't dropped) and only knew a little of Bleach from Nirvana...Nevermind wasn't out yet. Same for the Chili Peppers. A couple weeks later, i knew my mistake...all those albums came out. 1991 was a wild year
This is very cool. When Rattle & Hum came out I remember thinking that I wished I’d been at the shows in Tempe Arizona. Now even more so knowing Eddie was at them. So cool to hear someone from one of my favorite bands covering a favourite song from another favorite band. 😊
I was working at the Arizona Biltmore hotel in 1987 as a valet parker. We had lots of. bands that stayed at the hotel (GnR, Heart, etc).

Wau 👍

😮😮😮 I’m so grateful I saw this comment ❤
What a wonderful experience for you God bless
Love the fact that Eddie Vedder loves U2
I just felt the same about this!
YESSSSSSSSSS!!!!
Yes!! There is a video on U tube where Eddie sings the first verse of A sort of homecoming which is my favorite U2 song.
So do I!! ☝🏻😃🥰
@@richardshermanjr1899 love his take on One and Elevation as well

$5 tickets! It cost me $30 just to park for the 30th anniversary tour. Tix we’re about $100. Still, it was worth every penny.

For you "younguns", Eddie is covering a 36 year old song written by a band that is STILL around. Kudos to your Eddie. You know your roots well.
Also for the younguns...I'm 58 by the way.

U2 The Greatest Rock Band of all Time 🇧🇷🤘🔥
PJ and U2, my favourite bands ever.
I like peanutbutter and jam too!
Yeesss my favorite bands ever. U2 Joshua Tree and Pearl Jam Ten. Greatest albums ever!
For many years growing up, U2 and Pearl Jam were my absolute favorite bands. Nice to hear Eddie talk about some connection there and also being a fan.
Couldn’t have said it any better!
Eddie still has one of the most passionate singing voices in the entire music industry.
I went to see U2 in Hampton Coliseum in 87. Then the lifelong love of them began. Been to 7 shows since. Love Eddies version here.
I always felt that for those of us who grew up with `Mount Rushmore` bands like the Stones, the Who, Zeppelin, Floyd, etc, U2 gave us a huge lift to the 80s that was desperately needed. Saw U2 play an unbelievable show in the old JFK stadium in Philly in 1987. Great story and great cover!

AMAZING. One of my fav U2 songs ever.
Was there to hear this... and as a U2 fan who saw tour in 1987 I loved this.
Hes been playing 2 of my favorite bands in the last year..U2 and the Cure...
Haven't heard this song in years but still remember all the words
Dude, I was at those 2 same shows. To this day one of the best memories I hold. Somehow my parents let me and my friends travel there from LA ... I WAS 15!!!!! My mom was the coolest lady.
U2 one of the great bands 👌
U2 live is always a great night 🌙
Vedders voice fits the songs of U2 so well
Adore the Joshua Tree saw the Tour at Wembley.. Have to say my fave JT track is ‘Running to stand still’
Wow what an incredible version of such a great song. What a wonderful story as well. But man Eddie has such an incredible way of taking somebody’s great song and turning it into something even more beautiful with his own personal style. Absolutely incredible. Thank you for capturing and posting this. 🤠🤠
Eddie is amazing, great version, but no, it's not better than the original
@@imagenesmentales the original is one of their most underrated masterpieces, it is truly wonderful.
Meh it's ok. The original is way better
I was there at Sun Devil Stadium in December 1987. Awesome night with alot of mist.
I saw U2 that same year in Harford CT. We drove up from NYC... got lost but still made it.
Good times❤
AMAZING! Love this song, so underrated. He crushes it.
Great cover. I saw the U2 Joshua Tree tour in Hartford, CT that spring and it was fantastic. Loudest ovation I've ever heard at a show was when they walked out onstage.

haunting. Saw them in 87 a few times. Amazing
Always loved this song. I paid 14 Irish pounds to see U2 that year in Croke Park, Dublin. Never forget it. Brilliant version Eddie!!
These two U2 shows Eddie speaks about were important moments that inspired generations of rock and roll history. There's no doubt Vedder and Pearl Jam would have flourished without U2, but we can't deny the connection.
Courtney Barnett covers the INXS album Kick and it’s awesome. I’d love to hear Eddie Vedder cover all of Joshua Tree. I think it would be incredible.💯
One of my favorite all-time U2 songs by far...
I'm not surprised but I'm surprised. Eddie just has boundless passion and he puts everything, into every note, every breath, every second of every song. What a legend. What a puckin legend mang.
I DO know why it makes me emotional. PJ & U2 have been such a huge (understatement) part of my makeup. It fills my heart
100% with you on this - some high school mates played this song in front of a Catholic School audience.

As a kid I watched U2’s concert film Rattle and Hum about 100 times, we wore out the VHS. To imagine that those shows tickets were only $5!!!! Wow!!! Eddie is such a great story teller!!!
It was a great show, I was lucky to sit right stage next to the runaway

One of the great Rock singers putting his spin on another great Rock frontman.
EDDIE CAN IMPROVE SONGS THAT ALREADY SEEM PERFECT, I LOVE EVERYTHING HE SINGS, JUST HIS WAY!
I hope Eddie continues to cover lots of U2 songs. (Maybe he already does). He does an outstanding job and I don't see how U2 would mind at all as he truly does the songs justice and makes them FABULOUS! MORE, please, Eddie!
Beautiful! Nobody sings like Eddie, he sings with his heart! ❤️
Eddie's version is just lovely.
One of my favorite U2 songs! Nicely done Eddie! I saw U 2 in 1983 for $6.00 @ the old RIT hockey rink in Rochester NY. The War tour.
Just a slight side note, both groups are still listed as active. Which means, I’m older then dirt……lovvvvve it!!!!! I say can I get an amen???
I was at one of those shows in San Diego in 87. Back then it was Jack Murphy stadium. Got two tickets and took a girl I had a huge crush on. We kissed in the middle of that show. It was such a magical night.
I got #2 in the lottery at NAU for those Rattle & Hum shows and ended up with row 7! Cool to know we were at the same show.
Saw U2 twice in Philadelphia in '87.Waited in line to get tickets for the JFK Stadium show at first,but we decided to go wait in the Spectrum line to see them at the smaller venue.Glad we did because i ended up winning tickets from a radio station for the JFK show.
Amazing that he was opening for U2 less than 5 years later.

His guitar and mic and not even plugged in 😂😂😂
Awesome!! Thanks for the upload! Eddie is such a great singer!!
Saw U2 at Murrayfield Edinburgh August 87. They started with Eddie Cochrans “come on everybody”
Great memories for a then 18 year old.

I went to those U2 shows. Wish I had run into Eddie there! 😅
Dude on the white strat rocked it
I still have the Joshua Tree concert program from when I went to see them with my dad. My first concert at 14.
Gave me goosebumps.
Me han hecho derramar una lágrima,quiere decir que es una cosa bien hecha.Gracias

Love this 🩵🩵🩵
Damn you make my day awesome
Love Eddie's story I saw U2 in Cleveland around same time
I went to that show in Cleveland I was a junior in high school it was a wonderful experience
Cannot help but notice the shift in direction and quality of U2’s lyrics following All That You Can’t Leave Behind.
Hearing the prodigious Eddie Vedder have to work to hit some of those notes really makes you appreciate what a great range Bono has.
true, but how good is a 57 year old Vedder still killing it
Imagine being the guy who sold those 8 U2 tickets to some random kid in 1987 and have no clue that kid would then go on to create one of the greatest rock bands in history and even play a significant part in inducting/honoring that very band (U2) at the Kennedy Center.. and most likely still have no clue it even happened.
Thank you so much 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Eddie just oozes coolness.....
PJ and U2 made who i am nowadays. Always thankful
Just Beautiful music
I always under estimated this one but now I love it ..
Still have my unused ticket from that $5 show. One of my great concert misses, along with Pearl Jam, Nirvana, and the Chili Peppers at ASU Activity Center
Why’d u miss it!!! I was born in 2001 and would do nearly anything to see pj and nirvana in 91 or 92!!!!!!!
@Jennifer HA didn't know who Peal Jam was yet (album hadn't dropped) and only knew a little of Bleach from Nirvana...Nevermind wasn't out yet. Same for the Chili Peppers. A couple weeks later, i knew my mistake...all those albums came out. 1991 was a wild year
thank u brother for share
LOVE THIS ONE
Underrated song
I was at both tours, elland road July 1st 1987 and twickenham 8th July 2017 amazing nights😊
I LISTEN PEARL JAM AND I LOVE THE VOICE OF EDDIE SINCE A WAS 14 NOW A I AM 41 HEAR OLD THANK FOR SAVE MAY ❤
I saw U2 at Sun Devil Stadium for the Pop tour. 3rd row on the field. Incredible experience.
Awesome…thanks for posting!
I was at the concerts Eddie is talking about. Excellent shows and a great way to end that wonderful year of 1987.
This is very cool. When Rattle & Hum came out I remember thinking that I wished I’d been at the shows in Tempe Arizona. Now even more so knowing Eddie was at them. So cool to hear someone from one of my favorite bands covering a favourite song from another favorite band. 😊
So good
Thanks so much Mike for posting!!
❤this year 1987 band songs went through my heart. Thank you also P J.
Great job filming Mike!
