Theyre not young men anymore, to have them still give 100% of themselves is something I appreciate. To me they still sound like U2, the greatest band to come out of the 80's!
They are my age (either side of 63) - still one of the best live bands ever. Appreciate the music & the lightshow for what it is. But I'll never forget seeing them Downunder in 1985 - when we were all much younger - it was just the music back then.
My dad was there. Maybe not the show but he did see them at a huge arena in Dallas or somewhere close in 1985 and I’ve heard many stories of it. Lol I love Joshua Tree in high regard b cause of that reason.
This was the night we were there. It was amazing to feel like we were outside. Thank you for posting so I can soak it in more. That night was so much to process!
Thank you SO much for recording and sharing this! I’m in Australia but wish I could be there for one of their shows in the Sphere. I am grateful to get to see this!
Roger Waters spent the first half of a recent concert reading from his laptop about personal pet stories and a duck that came to live in the family home. Then he swore at any audience members who had the audacity to indicate any malcontent.
I was there Friday night. You have to be at the venue to understand and appreciate the magnitude of the performance. I have done a lot of cool shit in my life but this concert is definitely near the top.
Killers at the sphere would be incredible! Man just imagine the concert starts with a backdrop of the cliff dwellings silver city and Brandon starts I did my best to notice when the call came down the line!!
Yes! Also the hihat strokes during the intro, and Adam kicking in with the octave drop instead of the "I'll come stumbling along" start he does now. In short, they should have done the ZooTV version!
@@j012cl4nand Larry’s not behind the wheel driving it . Not to diminish the drum sub but good gravy what a difference Larry’s drumming makes in U2. If it wasn’t clearly evident before..
The screen looks incredible, but I want music to be the forefront at a concert and not the theatrics. U2 lost their way a long time ago in that regard. This coming from a top fan since the beginning.
Guys ... they're 62/63 for Christ's sake! Give them a break, I can't think of many bands out there who are making new music in their 60s that rivals what they did in their 20s and 30s
Nothing better than a real concert without this technical highlights. Altough the Sphere experience must be great, all I see is people with phones, fomo people. Let’s see Planet Earth with David Attenborough in the Sphere.
I do appreciate the effort, but to say it rivals the stuff in their 20's/30s is pushing it pretty hard, IMO. I also don't like the prices of their concert tickets, which in part is due to the enormous amount of money spent on stages/tech. @@generalcustard1
You have a beautiful simple video and music. How is the music not at the forefront? You say you've been a top fan since the beginning yet fail to recall they've used screens since Zoo TV. Those farthest away from the stage just see ants anyway, why not give them a beautiful visual?
I love U2, and I've been to many concerts from different tours throughout the years, but I think the boys need to rest up now. I don't feel bad saying that, and others shouldn't get offended, as I love this band but I personally feel its time to stop.
ah yes the random clapping moron standing up right in front of me while i'm enjoying the moment. thank you for reminding me of why i don't go to live shows anymore
Some say dreadful I say it's beautiful in one of beauties purest forms. Nature untouched by man. A place where we haven't depleted the Earth from her resources yet, a place where we haven't killed other species to the point of extinction for nothing more than personal financial gain, the places location purposely explained in it's simplest way with the locations well being being the most important not to change with it's colorless stripes floating in the wind unnoticed by anything that cares not to notice. With the only other clue to where we are is where the seed to this song was planted. Planted in The Joshua Tree ✌️😎
@@newwaver9284 I don't need to crack a book, I actually play the guitar, I admire him for coming up with good licks, and playing with a delay takes skill. Especially in front of 30 thousand people. You mess up you hear it more than once. You have to be perfect.
Bugger I forgot and got carried away by the sphere and without thinking I searched “u2 sphere”… Bono ain’t what he preaches, after-all… this is the band that we couldn’t delete from iTunes. I had to delete iTunes to get rid of them and now I’m worried.. really worries. Have I been tricked into consenting for the algorithm to forever fill my feed with U2 videos thinking I like them 😭 And now I’ve commented… This isn’t good!
Bono's voice has been on a decline since the mammoth Joshua Tree tour, even if I kinda prefer the sexier style he adopted from Achtung Baby forward. But yeah, this performance has to be one of the worst.
A few things - the only song I like from U2 and the visual is just a static shot of the dessert :( - people standing up to clap blocking the screen - People trying to sing along further ruining the performance that was already not so great. - the weird “oh”s and “uh”s in the intro? Granted those last three are normal concert issues but come if I had to pay like ~$1500 overall to see this, I’d be pissed
J'aimais beaucoup U2 avant mais il faut reconnaître que ça fait 25 ans qu'il chante faux avec une voix éteinte. Ce n'est pas agréable à écouter et je ne comprends pas que si peu de gens le reconnaissent.
J ai pu voir U2 à Paris à la cigale en 83, et c était énorme. Bono avait 23 ans, c est sur que 40 ans après avec la vie de star avec ses excès la voix viellit....
For sure it’s a great experience but to stand even though you have a seat for most of the show and hear others next to you sing dwarfing the sound is not my cup of tea.
This song is a piece of music history.
Shut up Paul
False
Theyre not young men anymore, to have them still give 100% of themselves is something I appreciate. To me they still sound like U2, the greatest band to come out of the 80's!
Exactly! Bono has $1B net-worth and they are still singing for their fans!
Bono can i borrow $1200 bucks need to take my mother to the Sphere show next weekend 🌏🫴🏽
Yeah!
Shut up Paul
there song sucks , i'm only here for the sphere

@@Mattwest1985 Joshua tree was in my dad's tape deck forever when I was a kid lol I loved it. This song especially.
Definitely, STILL, will always be my favourite u2 song. Chills ❤
Shut up Paul
This was the night we were there. It was amazing to feel like we were outside. Thank you for posting so I can soak it in more. That night was so much to process!
This is one of the greatest pieces ever written in music history. Phenomenal
Please come back to europe
Breathtaking…❤️☘️
Great song, great place....God bless U2
U2 конечно гении. Просто нет слов.

La canción de mi vida junto con the fly. Simplemente impresionante
Could you imagine what Pink Floyd or Rush could have down with this like omg the potential

@@ericw4377 I just meant like imagine this existed then. Obviously I don't want to watch some washed up version
Muse too
Tool
Saw the original Dark Side of the Moon and Animals/ Wish You Were Here tours..amazing back in the day!
Good lord this gives me shivers. Just perfect
かっこよすぎて鳥肌立った！
This is so epic 😍🥲😭❤!
U2 a maior banda de todos os tempos
I was there Friday night. You have to be at the venue to understand and appreciate the magnitude of the performance. I have done a lot of cool shit in my life but this concert is definitely near the top.
Can’t wait to see the stars from this creation this will inspire the creations of new technology that has top tier displays and will look awesome
Me arrepio toda vez q escuto...pqp!!❤❤❤❤
I think The Killers deserves for that show too
Tool needs to to a concert in this place, the visuals would be amazing.
Why did I get so emotional as soon as the sky lit up and people started to get up and clap?😭😭😭😭
Our dum dum primitive brains crave group activities
Are you an alien or something? Is that a real question?
Amazing view!!! I'm so excited I'm going to see them next week on the 27th 👌😁🎸🎤🔥
How was it in person? Did the proximity of people around bother you?
Wonderful Best Band Ever Irish Pride 🇮🇪
There Greatest Band ❤️ in the world 🌎 totally awesome 👍😎👍
You have very low standards
Leave it to U2 to shatter the ground again
Que lindo gente ❤❤
❤❤
Wish i were there 😮
Damn that display has some mad colour accuracy
Killers at the sphere would be incredible! Man just imagine the concert starts with a backdrop of the cliff dwellings silver city and Brandon starts I did my best to notice when the call came down the line!!
Think it’s a bit of a missed opportunity to do a cracking version with the big red screen and lights explosion.
Exactly!
Yup, I preferred the Joshua Tree tour backdrop
Yes! Also the hihat strokes during the intro, and Adam kicking in with the octave drop instead of the "I'll come stumbling along" start he does now. In short, they should have done the ZooTV version!
@@trr9230they've made it clear they don't want to do a rehash of Zoo TV, and I agree with that.
@@ausis6214 so do I, but they could've played it like on ZooTV - the ultimate version of it. And as far as the visuals go, the OP stated it perfectly.
最高！
How I would love to be in Las Vegas at this point--- but I always have to work --always work and just dream................
You go to the sphere…..and pull your,phone out to look at it through a 5” screen
This used to be THE climactic moment of a live U2 show. That was just plain sad.
The Joshua tree came out over 30 years ago. Considering that they still do an amazing job of it love. Not to mention it's filmed on a phone.
@@j012cl4nand Larry’s not behind the wheel driving it . Not to diminish the drum sub but good gravy what a difference Larry’s drumming makes in U2. If it wasn’t clearly evident before..
@@howellbuzz It was even better by Bram van den Berg.
@@bartobruintjes7056 based on this video, which is what we are talking about, the sub drummer is evidently not “even better than the real thing.”
@@howellbuzz I am a drummer myself, and he's on the same level as Larry. Okay to be honest; If he wasn't, he never got the permission to drum with U2.
Super
seeing this in 6 days
Id imagine this is one of those, “you have to be there” moments. Recorded vids like this just dont do it justice
U2 …… FOR EVER .
Bono&U2 pls pls pls come to Münich
A small brighter spot light on the boys would have been nice.
No there not young anymore but they still Rock ❤️😁😊👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️
New Born planet 🌍
You were in the same suite we were in ? Level 500? Great show! Too bad they were over an hour late!
It‘s section 308. They had some technical difficulties during the whole show. Who knows why
Level 500 doesn't exist haha
Bono’s voice, eeesh
Witam. Jakość tych paneli powala. Można poczuć się jakby w tle naprawdę była pustynia :) Pozdrawiam.
I really want to see cosplay on this amazing concert s
$800 to see and hear a concert and then have to listen to the guys around you singing out of pitch. 😮
true.. & bono's voice is gone.. what a waste. wrong choice
The most expensive seats were $500. Very strange: people at a concert like the music and feel it and want to sing
Lol
Lol
Lol
You were all in one big Thruman show.
We can say,we live in that sfere.What if ....that is.
U2 is Progressive House for Gen X and Millenials.
Which section is this? I want to go but I have no idea which section would be the best. Thank you
This is section 308 row 3
Thank you. Your videos are great
Dartscheibe einfach am Anfang 😂
In essence, you're paying premium for the illusion of listening to an off-key Bono out in nature.
Ok now picture this. TOOL playing in this😂
What level were your seats?
Section 308 row 3
O que o Michel Jackson não faria numa casa dessa de show? Seria experiência única!
I expected the seating to go all the way around the sphere and stage setup to be a lot different and better.....🤷
This thing is so spectacular they don’t even need to put U2 in there, they can use some impersonators and nobody will notice..
Beatles, Elvis, yup coming no doubt complete with AI !
The screen looks incredible, but I want music to be the forefront at a concert and not the theatrics. U2 lost their way a long time ago in that regard. This coming from a top fan since the beginning.
The screen is used to distract the audience from realizing that the band is not what they once were

Disappointing vocals form Bono. The sound quality is great though (although the vocals are a bit loud in the mix) and the venue looks amazing.
Cut the Mic
this video is awesome if you watch it in landscape mode, then turn off the sound.
I love U2, and I've been to many concerts from different tours throughout the years, but I think the boys need to rest up now. I don't feel bad saying that, and others shouldn't get offended, as I love this band but I personally feel its time to stop.
Oh what's happened to his voice 😳

ah yes the random clapping moron standing up right in front of me while i'm enjoying the moment. thank you for reminding me of why i don't go to live shows anymore
Coldplay would crush this venue
And Muse too

What the F lyrics is he singing ?
need to pick up that tempo. little to slow n mellow. I want rock n roll
saw them when they just got going at the us festival
bono climbed 60 feet up the lighting scaffolding
Not easy to do an arpeggio like that, edge is the best percussionist in u2

Let's be perfectly honest now. People are here to see the sphere, not an old man pretending he can still sing.
Bugger I forgot and got carried away by the sphere and without thinking I searched “u2 sphere”…
Bono ain’t what he preaches, after-all… this is the band that we couldn’t delete from iTunes. I had to delete iTunes to get rid of them and now I’m worried.. really worries.
Have I been tricked into consenting for the algorithm to forever fill my feed with U2 videos thinking I like them 😭
And now I’ve commented…
This isn’t good!
Bono mailing it in…Have Iron Maiden play that place…they’re bring some energy at least.
Oh dear. Just like an old pub singer. Cannot believe that U2 would humiliate themselves like this.
Time to give up Bono.
Karaoke😢
glad i didn’t pay money to go see that …
People go to see the visual effects and disrespectful idiots stand up in front of you.
Am i the only one who’s considering this format extremely sad?
yes. and you sound very jelly
good old "Jelly Card" @@rockmusicvideoreviewer896
Is that supposed to be the american flag burning??
No
How does this affect climate change?
What happened to his voice? Was it just tech difficulties? Yikes....
Bono's voice has been on a decline since the mammoth Joshua Tree tour, even if I kinda prefer the sexier style he adopted from Achtung Baby forward. But yeah, this performance has to be one of the worst.
Wow. That's a hell of a stage. And Bono can't sing. Wow.
A few things
- the only song I like from U2 and the visual is just a static shot of the dessert :(
- people standing up to clap blocking the screen
- People trying to sing along further ruining the performance that was already not so great.
- the weird “oh”s and “uh”s in the intro?

C’est moi ou il chante faux Bono 😮
He is 70 years old, your voice is not going to be the same
C est toi je pense😂

This has the vibe of a laser rock show.
Baisse toi 🤬🤬🤬
For sure it’s a great experience but to stand even though you have a seat for most of the show and hear others next to you sing dwarfing the sound is not my cup of tea.
That was bad …I used to love this song
The visuals are amazing...but woooow that is a disappointing performance by Bono
Too big
what on earth happened here. dreadful
Karaoke night
Terrible sound
garabge song
Is it just me or is the acoustic's so bad ?
壯觀的科技! 只是U2唱得很爛! 根本來騙演出費的
An oversized screen and a tiny band on stage...what remains of U2 and their values ? Bono's voice is almost pitiful.
You could be referring to big acts for the past decade.
Jesus that guy cannot sing.. Sphere looks sick though
