Now that I think about it, I'm going to give a mention to these songs as well.  This is basically the first three songs of this album called Sun Dance from a Japanese vocalist.  One of my top two favorite albums of last year.

Aimer - One
Aimer - We Two
Aimer - 3Min

U2 '40'

How long.....to sing this song.....

I loved that as the encore on "The Unforgettable Fire" tour with each band member walking off one by one.

I remember seeing that at the '87 show. I didn't know the song, but I thought that was cool.
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

I didn't know you saw U2 Tim. I'll assume in Foxborough?

I saw the War tour in the Orpheum in 83 and The Unforgettable Fire tour in 85 at The Centrum.

Yeah, I'm full of surprises! :lol


For the '92 show, one of the security guards was a meat cutter at the store I was working in. He was stationed in the section right on the side of the stage where The Edge was. He waved us through for the show, and when The Edge came to ..the ..um edge.. he was about 20 feet from us. I regret not having my camera for that.


I thought the '87 show at the Garden was really cool. I recognized many of the songs, but it was cool just seeing them.

Stads, have you seen this?

I hadn't seen that before; that was REALLY good.   I could do without the singer (that's on me, not him; is that Doug Henhorn or whatever his name is?), but Joe smokes that song up and down.

Is that Orpheum show the 'legendary' one?  Didn't they play a show there that essentially broke them in the States?   

I saw the first leg of The Joshua Tree show in Hartford ("Outside is America... outside is HARTFORD, CONNECTICUT!"  Uh, Bono, have you BEEN out there? You wouldn't be so excited about it... :)) and that was a game-changing show.  Don't think I've ever felt that kind of energy before.  Not "Maiden Metal" energy, or "Guns'n'Roses dangerous" energy, but a sort of... I don't know how to put it.  Like you were watching something that was WAY more than the sum of it's parts, or way more than just the time it was being played.  Like it was something that would resonate.

That was an earlier show.  Though that show I was at was aired on WBCN.

before the change, (and trying not to hog all of these early), I'll add 'One' by U2 (my wife's favorite song of the band).  As to U2, I liked some of 'Boy' and 'October', loved 'War' and some of 'The Unforgettable Fire'.  The Red Rocks video of 'Sunday Bloody Sunday' was superb.  I thought 'Joshua Tree' was a bit timid at first.  I simply went to see a concert, but found it as an 'experience'.  'Where The Streets Have No Name' is one of the best openers ever.  And then at the end was '40'...Edge playing bass, Adam lead guitar, Bono walks off first, and then The Edge, and then Clayton, while Larry is still playing drums to the 50,000+ singing the 'how long' bit.  And then the crowd keeps singing for minutes after he finishes.  Next to Queen's 'We Will Rock/We Are The Champions' ('God Save The Queen tape).....nothing else still gives me those goose bumps.  Thanks for the prior stories.

Other numbers:  1984 by any number of artists, but loved the one by Spirit back in the 60s.

And...for good or bad, Revolution #9, which I did listen to on occasion after 'indulging'...

Francis Dunnery - American Life in the Summertime

Marillion - Afraid of Sunlight (the whole album really) reminds me of the Fourth of July because of when I first heard it.

Edit:

Rush - Presto (song and album, from that same summer)

Kind of a "duh" (and certainly not their best work), but Summertime Girls by Y&T.

Also, most of Love at First Sting, and particularly Big City Nights.

Aside from that saxophone part (which, had you played it for me and asked, I'd have said was from some Don Henley or Glen Frey song from the 80s), I don't think I've ever heard that song.
