      1:18 though....
      nah i actually agree , Clayton gets so shit on by a lot in the bass playing world and i never got it, people don't seem to understand that especially on these early records, the rhythm parts existed before those great Edge guitar lines, he woudn't have been writing those on nothing and as such Clayton is absolutely integral to U2. Like what? you think a technically very proficient bassist with busy lines would have made U2 better? No way. This is part of the U2 sound and these songs don't get written this way without Clayton. In fact you remove one person from U2 and it's not the same sound, the same band, and i don't think we'D know their name today. Anyway, Gloria was the first bass solo i learned when i picked up bas sat 17 in 1996. It helped that's it's easy as hell but makes you sound good to people who don'T know bass playing much.

      Me too. My buddy (R.I.P. Jeff Hector) and I got there about 2:00 to get prime seats, as it was general admission back then, not knowing whether or not the show was going to be canceled in the typical early June Colorado weather. We were so stoked (and stoned) when the sky looked like it was finally starting to clear near dusk. Turned out cool that it never did, because the misty rain, the low-lying clouds, and, of course, the natural acoustics at Red Rocks, coupled with the purity of Bono’s voice, made for a perfect show.

      I think only one or two of their old songs were played. It was all about promoting those albums. And all the Goth Chicks sitting around us agreed by the way we were dancing to Los Lobos more than U2.

    I know a guy from Denver says he was there. Bono and Edge went on the radio since it was supposed to rain and not a lot of tickets sold, (I think they started giving them away). So anyway, he says what the heck, lets go. He was blow away, never really heard them before but the radio hits. He remembers the staff gathering people closer to the stage

      I totally believe that. U2 definitely defies conventions. To their credit. A huge part of that goes to Adam Clayton, who is often overlooked...he pushed the band hard to make it big when Bono and Edge were not that into it.

I was in the 38th row and trust me if we could have gotten closer we would have jumped at that. It did rain. Rained it's ass off My best friend and I were 16 at the time. We didn't care.
