    Anyone alive or in attendance at this show and knew what they had at that very moment was one very lucky person. I think most of us never stopped to think that this era was all going to be gone in the blink of an eye. Our youth has waned, glowing aspirations have either been accomplished, gone or outgrown and the world is now more divided and different than ever. Watching "40" live after 36 years is hard to put into words. It was one of those songs I would always skip over back when I was a teenager, but now it hits home like never before. Watching Larry Mullen Jr. at the very end, just sitting behind his kit in silence and listening to the audiance makes me wonder if he knew what he was living at that moment. You just never know how good you had it until it's gone.

      Larry Mullen, Jr. always had his Bible backstage, at least the 2 times I was back there with them. And now “I” know why. He was nothing like the other guys. I never thought I would say this, but my views have altered 💯 % but sometimes you either accept the facts and truths given to you by the higher power or you stay in the muck of the deceivers. Your choice. Still loved them back then before I knew why Larry carried his Bible. Love to all.💞

Gimmee your thoughts if you will...would love to hear them.

      @therepublicofcynica I wasn't inferring that you, in particular, said anything negative about Ireland or the Irish, however in general if you come from Ireland as I do, then you will recognize that any critical comment about a public figure or celebrity does tend to come from a place of grudging negativity particularly if it relates to finances. Bono and U2 collectively have contributed significantly to Ireland's revenue , culturally, educationally, and from a philanthropic perspective, too. However, for tax reasons they have moved their holdings from Ireland to the Netherlands, but I would not fault them for that. If you care to, you could check out an overview by Emmett Murphy on U2's contributions to Ireland as it measures up over the past few decades.

    • @therepublicofcynica
      @therepublicofcynica 2 місяці тому +1

      @@catherinecepuder3520
      Since your first response I’ve delved into the subject and read many articles from a variety of sources (which I’ve done before). Firstly Emmett Murphy just seems a to be a U2 mouthpiece to me and akin to propaganda. As soon as Ireland changed its tax system in 2006 U2 moved it’s tax and financial base to the Netherlands to avoid Irish tax. The day before! It may be they’ve contributed to charities in Ireland but the amounts are tiny compared to their, and Bono’s overall wealth and the tax they should pay. PR, again.
      You use the word ‘significantly in terms of U2’s contribution to Ireland but don’t qualify it. Any cultural contribution is subjective: Educationally? I don’t see that and don’t really know what it means. Philanthropically likewise.
      Here’s a section from Professor Sheila Killian from an article in the Irish Times:
      ‘Bono has wrapped himself for years in the Irish flag, literally and metaphorically. For Irish people, this no longer squares with his taking active steps to pay less tax here. He became a prophet without honour in his home country because he moved his profit from the country he calls home’.
      For me Bono is a fake. He wants my money for his pet projects but I pay all of my taxes, most of which was taken at source for decades. I had no choice, unlike him and his U2 gang. He says he pays a lot of tax but that’s a hollow thing to say because it belies proportionality and is, again, subjective. Everyone could say that.
      You mention ‘grudging negativity’ but, for me, it’s not that. I don’t care how much he earns, how much he’s worth or how many homes he has (five). What I care about is him spouting off and (always) being photographed with world leaders travelling the world in private jets as he piously asks for taxpayers money for his pet projects and causes. And then he was caught out in the Panama Papers scandal. Dear oh dear!
      If I see him sell one of his houses and take a normal plane then donate the revenue to charity, I might reconsider. But I doubt it.
      Thanks again.

    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!

      '61 here brother. I'll never forget somehow I got front row seats for this when I went down to the stadium when they announced this tour coming. The ticket woman had torn two front row seats off of a group of six or something because she said the person that was buying them didn't have enough money for all six. And she asked me if I wanted them still? I said are you fucking kidding me!? They were a bit to the side a little bit past Adam clayton, but it was like a life memory I'll never forget even when I'm 90 in my desk bed. I hope somebody brings this recording and puts it on some good speakers at the hospital or hospice, because I'll listen to the whole thing and then they can just inject me with the drugs to put me down😂😅😊

They were filming the concerts for Rattle and Hum, and wanted to make sure they sold out. We only went to the first night...but it was amazing.

      In April of 87, near Detroit Michigan at the Pontiac Silverdome football stadium, they had a totally different playlist than this. In fact when they came out on stage for the opener, they played the first three songs on Joshua Tree all in a row. Streets have no name still haven't found, and wither without you. I guess they decided to drop with or without you for this show? That was one of the biggest single hits of the entire last 6 months. That's kind of odd. But I did love the fact that they included One Tree Hill in Arizona. They didn't play that one in Detroit.
      We had front-row tickets down towards the area right in front of Adam Clayton. It was an amazing Unforgettable I'll never forget about what happened and all of the events for as long as I live. Man I hope they come back one last time and do an indoor arena tour. But we all know that's not going to happen too much money to be made with 60,000 people like a Taylor Swift show. 😊That's what sucks. This band should be seen indoors with about 22,000 capacity

    I saw Rattle and Hum in the theater and when the movie went from black and white to color, this was the opening scene. If you think it looks impressive on a computer, this is something that should be shown in IMAX. It still gives me chills when they hit that 16th note and the lights come on with the helicopter filming above down to the crowd.
