Yep, I know…. This is the point when I use my Amazon links to link to a DVD, FINALLY available in the Uk. Just not gonna do it. Besides, I’ve not made a penny from any of my Amazon links so far. I guess its up to you! Why don’t you use my Amazon links to see if this U2 DVD is available!
U2 ZOO Live from Sydney (Been to Sydney on my travels)
One bad thing about working on cruise ships during the ’90′s is that I never got to see big, well known bands live. Luckly, in the USA I was able to buy the video of U2 live in Sydney, Austrailia when they performed what I think was one of the best U2 live performances ever. It was a total f**king awe-inspiring show. I’ve always been ‘pissed’ that I could’nt find it on DVD here in the UK since I got back in 2004.
I spotted it in HMV 2 weeks ago but didn’t have the money. Works been good this month, really starting to think I can get a grip on my debts once again. Today I brought the DVD. First, good news! Unlike a Pink Floyd DVD, Pulse, that I also oroginally brought in the US, but was split between 2 DVD’s in the pack for UK release, Zoo is all on one DVD – the concert in it’s greatness fron start to finish!
Note to Pink Floyd DVD UK management. Pink Floyds music is all about chilling out. Why the f**k do you make me choose between the first half of their concert or the second? I mean I have to get up & put in the second DVD! I owned Pulse on DVD in the US. It was as it should be! All on one disc. Shame on you for for not releasing it on one disc in Pink Floyds home country!
So, ok, now I’ve got that off my chest back too Zoo! – So many personal fond memories! Hell! I got laid back in the early 90′s to Actung Baby. It was the girl that supplied the music in her house & well, it was fun! In an ever more complicated world only love will save you! John Lennon said it right in his song ‘Imagine’ (Seriously, google it!) Pay attention to the Lyrics.
Not being able to catch U2′s Zoo TV or POP tours means I’ve always been jealous that I’ve missed out on a great experience. If memory serves me my Zoo TV video was jumping with faults because I played it soo much! I hope my UK DVD version lasts longer. I last saw U2 live in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, in about 2002, maybe 2003. They had got back to basics in their live show as they are today. I’d seriously think about paying out an extortionate amount of money if I could get tickets today to see U2 reprise Zoo TV as an awe inspiring live concert! ….& I’ve only got the DVD to go on…. At least I can now see Zoo TV live any time I want too!
Bring back the Zoo TV tour U2! It was awesome! Bono, just think what your charity ego could acomplish with the money. Plus, your new generaton of U2 fans could apprieciate the original artistic form of , how through Zoo Tv, you passed a message on. I got the message through the video even if no one world wide got it through the passion that is a live performance.
PS – hope my spellings better on this ‘drunk dreaming’ trip!
