Have never been a big U2 fan but they have produced some nifty tunes over the years, watched a documentary about them last week which while focusing on the making of the new album also covered their back story.
Which leads us neatly to the two videos posted here, the first one is possibly their first tv appearance = good to see that Bonio's dodgy dress sense was apparent even from a young age. The second is the same song performed in what looks like the San Siro football stadium in Milan, a more polished performance but then that is hardly surprising after all those years of practice.
Off to Dorset in an hour, laptop is coming along so might post over the weekend.

In the first clip, I think the crazy stage set-up and lack of area to really move thwarted their fun. heh. Well, that and the fact they were kind of stiff most of the song. They loosened up toward the end.
"I will follow" is probably one of my favorite songs. Not a huge U2 fan, but there are a few songs. They definitely have (had) a unique sound.
