@@6AlphaMikeCharlie9I’ve hung out with him he’s extremely nice to everyone. He walked around the room and said goodbye to everyone in the bar when he left.

Bram did a fantastic job filling in for Larry Mullen and I’m so sure that the whole band and crew are thankful that the show was a success!! U2 are the best stadium band worldwide and all the members are not ego maniacs and have no time to say hello to their fans!! They will stop and say hello!! I mean it’s one of the only band in the world that from day one till now, no member changes they use their own production crew and equipment because they care about family!! It is one huge U2 family band!!
Loved the opening night, and it's the show I chose as a keepsake (I wasn't there physically, but You tube let me in! Hahaha!). I love that Egde spoke about the community of song he found on his Karaoke night, and Bono's observation at the end...is it real, or imaginary light. It doesn't matter as long as someone is being illuminated by it.
My favorites memory of South Africa was being in one of the parts where apartheid still goes on. Say the early Spring before the I|E tour ‘15 in Quebec. That was the 2nd, or third best show of U2’s I’ve seen. But we were stopped in a contact’s house, in a desert town, that was covered with cages. There’s people hanging on the gates, starving, begging, with plastic bags. “How to get to the grocery store?” At the grocery store the manager had “Until the End of the World,” cranked. We smiled for the first time since, well there were views. And I went over to him and shouted, “You like U2?” “Oh, Ya, man.” “Someone said no one here liked them.” “Ha Ha. That no friend. Dey lied, my friend. Sorry to say. You play that guitar?” Anyway it was nice. Keep playing everyone
Fantastic interview these guys are so in tune which other after years. It’s a very Irish interview how the conversation flows so poetic- the use of language is quite beautiful.
The Pop album and subsequent tour do not get the recognition they deserve. Quite honestly, the Mexico City Popmart DVD is probably my favorite of all their concert DVD's that have been made available over the years. That or Live in Sydney Zoo TV. Both are masterpieces.
This is the only music I listen and save on my phone! Bono ages but what’s matter is he still great singer! We all ages, it’s just in different way. My ex is Irish , they age really fast. But who cares I love u2 love Bono forever ❤
Another fantastic interview. I could listen to these guys talk for days. I’m glad they realised just how great playing the album version of “Even Better The Real Thing” is. Hope they play it again on the next tour… let’s get some new music out now lads! 🔥 🤘🏼
Saw them in Dec, 1984 at radio city music hall, the unforgettable fire tour. Young musicians, the sound, the band, the passion. Certainly unforgettable. A sort of volcano that night at radio city, nyc.
@@Saywhatnow-o3w I have great News for you! they incluing Larry are currently finishing the New álbum in L.A( Califórnia)and Will a tour NeXT tear, its already set
I absolutely love U2 but I think pop mart tour would have been so much more las Vegas. I have been to a few U2's concerts and even the elevation concert would have been more apt but they probably don't have the energy for them. Just glad I saw them in their prime but would have loved to have seen them both concerts in the sphere when they were in that period ❤️🎶
Edge, we’ve met. I could barely speak. However, should we ever meet again, I’ll ask you to sing a duet with moi n karaoke & request “Lost In The Supermarket” by my friends The Clash. Now that I know you like or liked them, sometime I will show you an unreal sheet of paper with all the guys(Strummer included) autographs & Have their London address they wrote for me & my friend. We did not cross the pond. We were both still in school. Was great to visit with you & was great to have a blurred experience with The Clash due to having several Kamikazes! They asked my friend & myself if we wanted one? Neither of had never heard of that. We agreed! Hahaha! & Omg! I said to my friend & the guys, “There’s Laurie Anderson!” She was walking by & no one gave a care!? Crazy punk daze. Love U2 & Clash FOREVER!!! REJOICE!!!❤ Edge, I’ll sing “Heart of Glass” & request you sing “Wire” from some band from Dublin?😂
The rumours are they’re releasing a concert film for it… but it’ll ONLY be available to watch at the Sphere itself (Similar to the U2:3D film only being available at theatres in 3D)
u2 played well at this LV run; new drummer was interesting & adapted surprisingly well, & livened the act up a fair bit giving the guitarists a new element to adapt to & perform with. Hewson's performances were variable, sometimes good, sometimes not, but no more than that from the gigs I saw. Whilst the venue was spectacular in scale, didn't think the visuals of the set were particularly good, too busy & often mundane in the backdrop images being conveyed, but the 2's have never particularly good at that aspect of an act's repertoire
@@iokin34 I hope not, I know he's injured but he is essential to the band. Bram's drumming on The Fly at the Sphere was horrible, although the rest of his drumming on the rest of the set was top notch..
am i crazy but at the start we were talking about facial hair and Bono couldnt let the other members finish without butting in with some las Vegas memories which were totally unrelated. Its all about Bono with Bono!
I thought it was a weird skip, but no, Bono literally just changed the topic out from under Edge. I love U2’s music so much, but jeez, Bono continues to try and make the universe revolve more around himself.
I don't think Larry gives a shit, and I don't think he really has since after 360 era. He just seems like he's just doing a job lol. So I don't think he gives a shit.
He's said in the past that there's a desert weed that gives him allergy trouble, and it impacts his voice. Being in a place like Vegas just brings the symptoms out. The humidifiers he's talking about help keep his voice in order.
They're all about 64-65 yrs and to me they all look their age. Noel Gallagher once went on a drinking spree with Bono and while it nearly killed poor Noel, Bono was up and about the next day, feeling sprightly and shaking hands with presidents on TV! That kinda of lifestyle's gotta put a few wrinkles on!
@@Nalydyenlo Yea they all look about their age maybe a bit younger when you compare to the average near pensioners .. age does a number on all of us unfortunately .
U2 really need to get their S### together. Everything in this interview here is so controlled, stilted, choreographed. The fake humility is not only condescending, but out of touch. They should just relax, speak in their own accents (Bono's Irish, the other two have English accents and Larrys gone), have a genuine laugh. The band really is on its final chapter into death.
What an idiotic statement. For one to have a creative friendship for over 50 years. A brother from another mother with a bond like theirs this does not happen to all of us. Cheers to them having a bond like the one they have. The Virgin Prunes X U2 is a creative connection between people that is simply fucking amazing. The best.
Just watched this god these guys dribble on with shit . Not impressed at by Bono's direct shot at the interviewers . Not needed to be told how it's going to be . I've seen u2 in Sydney brilliant band bit starting to lose the plot .
nope, that's not u2, not without larry. sorry. also, i idolized these blokes as a young adult. not so much anymore. left leaning entertainers certainly had quite a bit of influence on them, especially bono. not that i have no respect for them, but every time i see bono specifically, my heart quickly fills with ambivalence.
btw,,im Irish and i cant stand Bono, Edge and the hangers on like gavin friday analysing every detail as if they are genius. FFS get over yourself. And btw the punk rock they presribe to coming from does not sit well with them charging extortionate prices for this gig. Just sayin.
