  1. Hello

    I'm looking for the video of The Electric Co., from the Lyceum, London (Sept 7 1980). I read in U2 by U2 that Bono took a jump and his pants split wide open... haha, i wanna see that

    Thanks if someone can upload it!
  2. That gig wasn't filmed. The first known/circulating show dates from January 23rd, 1981.
  3. Ok, thanks anyway

    Hm, I'm torn if this is legit or not... the intro dates 1981, the outfit would fit in the Boy tour...
    and I'm too lazy to check with my DVDs

    EDIT: I asked a mate and It's legit indeed.

    Guess it comes from this VHS:

    A Celebration
    A Day Without Me
    The Electric Co
    Gloria
    Sunday Bloody Sunday (Red Rocks)
    New Years Day (Video Messed Up)
    Two Hearts Beat As One
    Commercial for Joshua Tree
    Pride (Sepia)
    Bad (Live Aid Version)
    The Unforgettable Fire
    A Sort of Homecoming
    Joshua Tree EPK

    Ok, but this was recorded live 4 months before the Belfast show, and is therefore the first live video recording other than tv appearances.

    Would be good if the rest of the show surfaced one day.

    Thanks a lot !! Bono seems angry and really have problems with his pants
  10. great shot
  11. I knew about this recording even before Internet existed.

    In my documental "A year of PoP" they made a general revision of U2's history, and this video appeared as one of their first performances. And I have it since 1997...

    I love it!
    All the 80's energy and even more, funny and weird stuff (pants off!)...

    I'm afraid the internet existed before you were even born.
