    Of all the tours, it seems like they had the most fun during Zoo TV.

    • @Zontar82

      of course, because they were daring to be diverse, instead of the boring crap they out now

    Incredible vocals from Bono AND Edge. Bono is so on point here that I often forget that the backing vocals are nearly as good.
    The version of New Year's Day from this gig is hilarious.

    yep. In Auburn Hills Michigan, he ordered "10,000 pizzas." When the pizzas arrived, the band was passing slices to those in the first row.

  • @gatsby8870
    @gatsby8870 14 років тому +3

    Wow, I thought the exact opposite. I thought Bono's voice was so strong and offered such a great flow.
    At least we're U2 fans and that's the most important thing :)
    Best!

      @arielr 8 років тому +13

      +Ziminho19 Not, man, never more like in that years. Until 92-93 U2 was relevant musically and artistically. Not today. Today they are only a entertainment band, like Rolling Stones.

    • @Ziminho19
      @Ziminho19 8 років тому +10

      Well, to me, they are still relevant. I love their lyrics and music very much. The were always a very good live band. Their albums are different compared to the 1990s, but there is some good stuff on the new album. E.g. Iris, Song for Someone and Cedarwood Road.

    It's funny, for all the famous tracks on this album, Zoo Station, The Fly, Even better..., Mysterious Ways, One and it's 'Ultra Violet' & 'Acrobat' that are my favourites.

    Background, President Bush was asked about Bono, and he said Bono calls him every night. He then said that he will deal with Majors and Kohl, and he will let Clinton deal with Boy George. Hence, Bono questioned, while in DC, the president doesn't have time for him. Also, that day, Bono sent over to the White House 20 tickets to his show, marked " for phone operators only."

  • @u2fan81
    @u2fan81 13 років тому +1

    I've been to dozens of concerts, and at least a dozen U2 shows. They are hands down the best live act. They play every show as if it were their last. Other artists seem to just go through the motions where the irish fab four honestly care.

    Luckily I've heard Ultraviolet 2009 in Berlin and 2010 in Munich. It's still an amazing song, they know after over 30 years in music business how to rock the crowd. Hope they'll play spme 'Pop'songs during their last leg.

  • @swa1570

      The calls were all real. Just did some research. Read the wikipedia page on Zoo TV tour and they explain it all. I was always blown and confused by this as a kid but it was always my favorite U2 style. Now I get it even more and learning about it was really neat
