That's amazing he could climb that high on those scaffolds, that fast

[@CFOGO]

thank god someone put this back on. i remember seeing this when it was on channel 4 for the first time

[@20ForthlinRoad]

I was there as well. Great day for music. The 5 bands included: The Lords of the New Church, The Gang of Four, The "English" Beat, U2 and as the headliner, the Police. In fact, if you watch the Police video from this concert, you can see Bono and the Edge standing offstage listening to them play.

I'm a big fan of U2 since 98 when they play for the first time in my country i was 14 years, this is the first time that I saw Edge miss the note, at 4:06 xD
