Simple Minds at Wembley Stadium! What a concert and what a song! The best live band ever!

[@jasonreynolds7785]

Mega drum sound and balls out drumming from Mel.

[@KorovaMilkBarbie]

The piano intro is amazing.

[@rde4017]

I was there, one of the greatest days of my life! ☺ Who doesn't love Mick's brilliant intro and Mel kicking the shit out of the drum kit!, this is easily my favourite version of my favourite Minds song too! x

[@trevortomes624]

Great day, consider myself very lucky to have been there. Am now a teacher and regularly use video of Simple Minds to show them that their teacher was at one of the greatest performances ever.

[@rasm0225]

I watched this on tv in 1988 and taped it on vhs. They definitely didn’t show the full set in Minnesota

[@jamesloveswork1]

Love em, but they were a bit lucky here!! Jim's singing is racing ahead of Mick's piano at the intro. Charlie & Mel to the rescue...

[@twattybollock]

they were the best live band in the world. U2 copied them and improved the brand.

[@seanf12012]

Not too sure if it was bettered by u2.

[@renevanzalen7449]

not, they were !!!!!....still the best of the rest...no question about it.

[@loredanaragone5794]

Simple minds grandi dal vivo superiori agli u2

[@getsensus]

How could u2 copy them, if they started first and played different music

[@garypayne3845]

@@getsensus nope first album Simple Minds 1979, U2 1980 maybe u2 started first before record deal but to copy someone you have to have heard them first but i do think SM were influenced by U2’s stadium sound hence their change in Musical style in mid 80’s

[@colinraycyrus68]

they were the greatest band in the world in 1984 then bass player derek forbes got sacked and they lost there edge and sound i would have been like U2 losing the EDGE at the same time the MINDS were still good but lost something,,,,,listen to this then listen to the dortmond concert from 84 you will no what i mean.....

[@kerrfal]

colinraycyrus68 agree and as a long time fan I know what you mean...let me just say that John Giblin is/was a great bass player too!

[@takamushinagamoto5086]

Oh ! Is Michael Mc Neil married with a Russian woman ? Else, John Giblin was the BEST bass player they never had... too bad is quitted...
