  1. We don't have PMs YET, but I wanted to make sure you got this message (of course you are Mofo by now so chances are you would have read it anyway )...

    I know you LOVE Madrid.
    I know you LOVE wild, deafening "Out Of Control" crowds.
    I know you LOVE Where The Streets Have No Name...

    Well, here is a link to a video with ALL 3 in top form from 1997-09-09. Unfortunately this show's U2start boot is not very good quality.

    The audio / video quality is only so-so, it's listenable, but the crowd is so powerful that I keep returning to it over time. I've never felt so much life emanating from a video, let alone a bootleg handicam video.

    You may have seen this video already, but if you haven't it's really important that you do, especially:
    1:00 when the lights go on at the beginning. (start at 0:50 for full effect)
    4:04 love, love, love This part gives me chills b/c the camera is shaking and people are jumping all over the place and drowning Bono out. (start at 3:47 for full effect)

    And yes, the YouTube comment from U2met86 is me ...

  2. I knew this video, i knew this crowd and of course I knew your comment (which in fact brought me to the video some months ago).

    This is the perfect example of how, without being a superb quality, a show can be fantastic...

    Thanks for sharing, in the name of everyone who didn't know the video...

    I've just made a photo of my paren'ts tickets of this show. Of course "Septiembre" stands for September and "Martes" stands for "Tuesday"...

  3. Wow! God I wish I could have made it to a Popmart show.
