MLK Per Pimm: "80,000 Czechs show up for U2's first live appearance in the gorgeous city of Prague, scene of the video for INXS's Never Tear Us Apart, directed by Richard Lowenstein, who also directed Desire and Angel of Harlem for U2. The Strahow Stadium is gigantic. Built in state ground and once the largest place in the world for exercise, it has been the scene for many "Spartakiada", socialist festivals and military displays and it was once a prison camp. "The Edge sings Born To Be Wild while footage from "Easy Rider" appears on the screen and everybody sings along to: "...like a true nature child we were born, born to be wild!" "At one point in the show, Bono says the Russians came with tanks, the Irish with a Lemon. He decides Pride to President Vaclav Havel, the poet politician who is great friends with Lou Reed. Before Staring at the Sun, Bono says they are "panic" in the country, panic meaning "virgin" in Czech." This is seeded at the special request of one of our members here. I had to trade for this three or four times until I finally obtained a lossless version...I would grade it conservatively as B+ audience...I don't want anyone getting nasty and posting that I have described this as being better than it is!!!
