@@jamesadcock5235 Maybe they are used to play the song in a lower key so Bono is not forced to sing high notes, as they do with many live songs, and Edge told Adam to play it on the original key.
@@fastica The original recording is tuned a half step down (like a lot of U2 recordings. Sometimes bands do this to help a vocalist, sometimes to put the guitar chords into easier fingerings, sometimes because lower tuned guitars just produce a better tone). The initial bass Adam had was tuned to E flat match the recording and he was indeed matching the original note, but they decided to have him switch from an E flat to an E-tuned bass to match Edge and they played the thing a half step higher than the recording. TLDR: the bass player was right 😁.
What is really cool about this besides seeing two members of my favorite band show up is how much fun they seemed to have doing it. It shows you how down to earth and good people they are. I'm so angry because I was invited to go that night and decided not to. I would have seen the Edge and Adam that night, two members of my favorite band. Yes I've seen them live 21 times but to see them in a setting like that would have been incredible.
Why wouldn't he? He's a craftsman and I believe wouldn't dream of lowering anything because of the number of fans in front of him. I obviously can't speak for him bit certainly believe that's how he would feel and apart from that it must be a real buzz to shake it up a bit thing's can get so boring so predictable 🤔🤣❤️
Let me clear things up, after Streets, Edge picked up the standard-tuned Explorer for Out of Control, Adam still had the half-tuned bass on from Streets, Edge obviously noticed right away, so we had to give Adam the standard-tuned bass, he wasn’t aware of that at the time, shit happens! Of note, they never do Out of Control in standard-tuning, but that night, it was!
He was probably just very exited with adrenaline. But I agree, his tempo and play was al over the place. You clearly see edge and Adam just going along.
Excellent Live performance recording quality Sound! I 👂👂 even better the guitars with a genuine original powerful dynamic & virtuous Edge super sonic guitar 🎸 Sound, it's marvelous!
You did a FABULOUS job with filming this. I was there on the extreme of Edge's side so I got him in profile, but your film is WAAAAAY better. Thank you!!!
Jessica Lindenfelser Thank You, very much! I feel so very lucky to have been so close - I couldn't get everyone in it at once, but I wouldn't have wanted it any other way :-)
The Edge looks very comfortable playing some old shit in a club…no ego or bullshit about him…pity same can’t be said for bono…I would go see this version of u2 in a heartbeat!!
This drummer is out of control lol. Can't really blame him, if I was playing with the actual Adam Clayton & the Edge I'd be losing my shit but god damn is he rushing the hell out of this song
There's no such thing as "wrong standard tuning" - it's either standard tuning (EADG) or something else (probably a drop D) - but as a pro, I'm surprised and disgusted he couldn't transpose on the fly and play the song in the same key but on a different fret position and not have to change basses. It simply cements my thoughts that Clayton is a fairly rubbish bass player and not an accomplished musician at all - absolute proof in fact. Shocking.
@@dominiccrimmings6925 hi can you explain that in lay man's terms so that bass wasn't tuned right and he could've played the key by going lower down the fretboard. Any bass you recommend to learn on thanks
Dominic Crimmings he couldn’t just use a standard tuned bass cuz some of the notes in the song require a d# on the low end only achieved through tuning half step down
@@dominiccrimmings6925 Who cares? You're talking about my favorite bassist, so how about you STFU? He's never once declared himself a competent bassist. If you were a true U2 fan, you'd know that. And that's clearly not what Neil meant. You're explaining bass theory & composition crap that we all learn on Day 1. Chill.
The bass was in a different tuning - Eb standard as opposed to standard tuning which is what Edge was playing in - hence why Adam changes basses midway through - as the bass player has two different basses one in Eb and the other in standard tuning
Loved how the bass Adam was playing was not tuned to Edge's guitar and the look he gave when Edge told him - priceless.
Didn't notice just got lost in the moment.
Wondered what was going on
@@jamesadcock5235 Maybe they are used to play the song in a lower key so Bono is not forced to sing high notes, as they do with many live songs, and Edge told Adam to play it on the original key.
at first I hadnt noticed but so true definitely sounded off key until he adjusted and then changed bass

That’s the sign of real dedicated musicians playing anywhere big or small with the same fire:) Really great to see…
Fantastic. Must be weird for Edge and Adam to play alongside someone imitating their best friend.
If I was a famous musician, I'd do this all the time.
Maybe the smaller ego is a refreshing vacation though 😂
The Edge plays with the same precision and passion whether he's in front of 300 or 300,000 people
Now if he could only play the right chords...
@@burnlastsunday He did. Adam's bass was tuned down.
@@burnlastsunday stop it

This was supremely cool of them to do this. Boy remains one of my favorite U2 albums and particularly, this song. Cheers.

The drummer is umm.. in need of practice.. love how Adam and edge just went along like pros!!

This was my favorite U2 song back in the day! OUT OF CONTROL!!!
How great this night must have been
I do not fanboy much, but I think I'd 'appropriately' scream if they'd suddenly be in front of me. So cool of them to show up here.
When Adam kicks in with the bass 🙌
What a massive treat for the fans 👏👏👏
The lady screaming ‘OH MY GODDDDD’ at the end sums it all up haha. Brilliant
Wonderful find here.
Absolutely Priceless!!!!
The look on Mick’s face is priceless.
HOLY SH*T! Debut album material!
Excellent Live performance recording quality Sound! I 👂👂 even better the guitars with a genuine original powerful dynamic & virtuous Edge super sonic guitar 🎸 Sound, it's marvelous!
Absolute legends !
what a great event. Thank you Adam for the unexpected. Love you, man and I know what it's like
The drummer gets the chance of a lifetime and this is what he does with it????
Edge and Adam get on stage: You hand Adam a bass in the wrong tuning. Derp.
You did a FABULOUS job with filming this. I was there on the extreme of Edge's side so I got him in profile, but your film is WAAAAAY better. Thank you!!!

@@irisdsm it's brilliant mate thank you.
That Voyager guitar is iconic.
I think it is called an explorer actually
Monster 🎸💎❤️ Love The Edge! Love U2 🤟🤟✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️🇧🇷🇧🇷
Woooooow amazing...!!!
Awesome video
Bravo!
Wow the singer really looks like Bono
Great Stuff
The always spontaneous brilliant U2(50% of anyhow)
Unreal
WOW!!!!!

Quality from Liverpool 💙❤️💙🤘
and I thought it was Quality from New York 🤔😉😊
class
Just a new singer and drumer and done
Wow, that was pretty fucking cool.
It must of been great
Just to be there
This is SO RAD! Have members of U2 done this with other cover bands?
I would die OMG
I don’t know how I held my own...
@@anthonyrusso8290 You did so with real class and brilliant stage presence 👏
I was there. Amazing.
no u were not
@@iggypopisgod9 wanna bet? I was working for atU2 at the time. It was our party.
No pressure on the other 2 ;)
they really needed Larry lol
Alternate universe U2 - 2U.
Up the dubs
What song was this?
“Out of Control”
What's the name of this song?
Out of Control
The Edge looks very comfortable playing some old shit in a club…no ego or bullshit about him…pity same can’t be said for bono…I would go see this version of u2 in a heartbeat!!
I noticed that too. I was going to say he looks more comfortable here than with Bono but didn't want the blowback.
29/07/2015
Why’d they show up?
U2 played at Madison Square Garden for a few days and showed up on their night off.
Ok Bono, thank you. You' re done.
I can't decide if those "fires" on the amps are unforgettable, or the most forgettable I've seen. :)
I guess only time can tell.
Version U2.1
This drummer is out of control lol. Can't really blame him, if I was playing with the actual Adam Clayton & the Edge I'd be losing my shit but god damn is he rushing the hell out of this song
Noticeably out of place. But yeah I'd be too.
Makes it raw
I think I like this guy singing this song better then Bono.
I bet The Edge likes him better too…
the drum beat is slightly out of sync with the guitar. The drum tempo is too fast.
Awkward moment when Adam uses wrong standard tuned bass at start but great recovery.

@@alfredjustique63 Yes, that's called Drop D tuning - like I said, there's no such thing as "wrong standard tuning"
Drummer ahead....
Sweet!
A bit of an out of control version
They make childrennn....
the edge was adjusting to play in a different key due to bass being outta tune at start... mad

@@jonathancant2031 my band the grunts play in e flat as well... i know the dilemma! lol
amazing chat there on the stage between adam and the edge .....'eh boss your in the wrong key' ' lololol
@@osheal lol
People shitting on the drummer...and missing the point of this completely.
What the hell is the drummer doing. He needs a metronome
Drummer's timing was awful
The drummer is too fast
Clayton doppelganger 🤣
True imposter syndrome, even they feel that . Weird
Always fking hi pitched women screaming.
