My first U2 show. I became a fan after hearing the Joshua Tree, but I had never experienced the "old" U2 or the "new" U2 in concert. My memories are crisp, but I probably have manipulated them to heighten the experience in my mind. Bono strolls out by himself with some of the house lights still on and he sings all by himself. He repeats the refrain and suddenly the lights go dark, the band members come on stage, and Zoo Station is in full force. The best U2 opening ever until I saw the Sydney ZOO TV video.
