European Festivals 1982

I was 22 when I saw U2 for the first time and I still remember as it was yesterday. They gave a very driven concert as they did so many times after.Thanks for colouring my life with the outstanding music you guys give me( my lifetime musical friends in good and bad ones!!!)

U2 were supporting Talking Heads and Tom Tom Club in my hometown Leiden. After my first U2-show on October 28th 1981 at the Stadsgehoorzaal in Leiden this was my second U2-show. Although U2 were supporting Talking Heads and Tom Tom Club I thought that the majority of the big audience (10.000) came to see U2 that night (maybe I'm not objective on this one).

U2 played as support act for The Talking Heads and Tomtom Club. I was 17 years old at the time,and already a huge U2 fan. This was the first time I saw them play live and it would'nt be my last... The energy and dedication on stage did not change over the years, only their music did. Thank you for sticking with us all these years
