Bono and The Edge: Tiny Desk Concert

These guys seem to upset some people these days and that's cool. If there's one thing I've learned in my time it's that not everything is for everyone 🤷‍♂️

For me, though, this is just lovely.

I have adored The Edge since U2 first hit my radar over 40 years ago 🥰

Same! I remember when this was the coolest thing that I had ever seen:

U2 - Gloria

Saturday Night Vidéos were the highlight of the weekend back then! We’d tape every single U2 video they played (too bad they’re on VHS and I can’t play them anymore)

This was my favorite (you can see a clip of the Minneapolis skyline in it - we thought that was so cool!)

Saturday night video music shows seem like an almost universal experience for Gen X kids in Western countries from what I can gather.

Here in Australia, our version was a show called Rage on our Australian Broadcasting Corporation and I'd be poised with my finger on the VHS record button well into Sunday morning...

Good times!
