WEMBLEY STADIUM   LIVE AID

 

SUNDAY BLOODY SUNDAY      BAD

comment : U2 's introduction to the World. The hype machine was already in place through the media and college radio.  The original set was 3 songs. " Pride ( In The Name of Love )  " was left out due to Bono's improvisation of " Bad " which he admitted later that he thought he would be fired from the band for taking such a risk. Rolling Stone Magazine called U2 " The band of The Eighties. " inspired by this performance.
