U2 Streaming Their Concert Live

Bonavox

I feel like the only one up at this time and I probably should have posted this a couple of days ago but for those who don't know: U2 are streaming there gig in The Rose Bowl at 8:30PM (PT), which translates to 3:30AM in Ireland, tonight.

It's streamed directly from their Youtube Page which has an off-air video stream above the bog standard usual layout. Just a heads up for those who want to see it.

I think it'll be uploaded to Youtube as a whole concert, but don't quote me on that.

As far as I know its only being shown again at selected times, I know that sounds weird so don't quote me on that

I would say its kinda gonna be like the Dublin shows where they played about 6 from the new album and the rest the classics. The lights look amazing. We totally lost out in Dublin

I remember Bowies glass spider in Slane in the late 80s and the show had to end before it got dark due to risk of insurance claims when it got dark.
Pity alright.

I think they only played it at 1 of the Dublin shows. Think they played Desire and Stuck in a moment the other nights.

The rose bowl holds 92,000 all seated so its bound to be well over 100,000 at the show. Lucky Bastards

Doesn't seem to be great 'Elevation' from Bono's mike! Either that or his voice is gone down an octave.

Fcuking bull$hit.
Anyone know what the problem might be.
Is it meant to stream automatically?
