<\/div>

As a precursor to Irish rock band U2\u2019s 15th<\/sup> and last gig of their \u2018The Joshua Tree Tour 2019<\/strong>\u2019 in Mumbai on December 15, I travelled to Singapore<\/strong> to see them live on December 1.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The date and venue for U2\u2019s visit to Singapore were not finalised until June 14 but, once announced, expectedly tickets for the November 30 show of the band\u2019s \u2018The Joshua Tree Tour 2019\u2019 sold out and, hence, I managed to obtain tickets for the second concert scheduled on the following day, their 10th<\/sup> gig of the tour, courtesy my host, Glenn Mascarenhas.<\/p>\n

With that as a background, I reached Singapore a day earlier to acclimatise myself to the city and to my own debut of seeing U2 performing live. Queues existed not for entry, but for the merchandise though and, although I avoided the one that was located just outside the entry into the main stadium, I did utilise the one located inside it and bought myself \u2013 and for a Mumbai-based friend \u2013 an \u2018U2 The Joshua Tree Tour 2019\u2019 tee which listed the venues and tour dates at the back.<\/p>\n

It was a bit of trepidation as my turn for the purchase arrived about 8.10pm for an event scheduled to commence at 8.00pm. Quite unlike the punctuality usually shown at Singapore-based events that I have attended in the past [Eric Clapton, Bob Dylan et al], the music of Irish-British band The Waterboys\u2019 \u201cThe Whole Of The Moon\u201d wafted on the PA system at 8.15pm with U2 \u2013 consisting of Bono [real name: Paul Hewson; lead vocals], the Edge [real name: David Evans; lead guitar, keyboards, and backing vocals], Adam Clayton [bass guitar], and Larry Mullen Jr. [drums and percussion] arrived on a smaller stage [\u201cStage B\u201d], located in the midst of the standing audience, at 8.21pm. The concert started with the rocking \u201cSunday Bloody Sunday\u201d, backed by a militaristic drumbeat with its lyrics describing the horror of the 1972 incident in Londonderry, Northern Ireland\u2019s second largest city, where British troops apparently shot unarmed civil rights protesters. \u201cI Will Follow\u201d, from their debut album, arrived next before moving into \u201cNew Year\u2019s Day\u201d from \u2018War\u2019, following which Bono announced that due to \u201crock \u2018n\u2019 roll transcendence, [it] took us only four decades to get here\u2026\u201d As the band moved onto \u201cBad\u201d \u2013 from \u2018The Unforgettable Fire\u2019 \u2013 U2 segued it with David Bowie\u2019s \u201cHeroes\u201d to a dramatic effect as, on Bono\u2019s request, the audience \u2013 both seated and standing \u2013 utilised the torch on their phones and pointed it in the direction of the band.<\/p>\n

\u201cPride [In The Name Of Love]\u201d, the first U2 song that I ever heard, in 1984, was next as it was soon time for the band to move onto the main stage to focus on the album that they were commemorating. Until then, there was no video shown, as it was obvious that U2 wanted their fans to witness something spectacular when they introduced songs from 1987\u2019s \u2018The Joshua Tree\u2019, and it was\u2026<\/p>\n

While walking onto the main stage, U2 appeared against a backdrop of visuals on the video screen with the songs accompanied by short films. The stage featured a 7.6K resolution video screen measuring 200 feet \u00d7 45 feet, reportedly making it the largest and highest resolution video screen of any concert tour. A silhouette of the Joshua tree from the album sleeve was painted on the screen, while a Joshua tree-shaped Stage B represented the plant’s shadow. Photographer Anton Corbijn, who photographed the album sleeve, provided the films that accompanied performances of the album’s songs.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The album’s opening song, “Where The Streets Have No Name” was accompanied by a slow tracking shot of a desert highway featuring migrants walking whereas, for “I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For”, a forest was depicted, as the audience sang along with the band. During the anthemic “With Or Without You”, images of Zabriskie Point in California\u2019s Death Valley were displayed.<\/p>\n

For “Bullet The Blue Sky”, the visuals showed men and women of various ages and ethnicities placing army helmets on their heads while standing in front of a shed painted with the American flag as The Edge played slide guitar that sounded amazing. During the song’s performance, Bono shone a handheld spotlight on The Edge, evoking the cover image of the band’s 1988 album, \u2018Rattle And Hum\u2019. Followed by the incredible \u201cRunning To Stand Still\u201d, a folk sounding song on which Bono played harmonica which, for me, is certainly the album\u2019s outstanding track. As U2 moved onto Side B of \u2018The Joshua Tree\u2019 with “Red Hill Mining Town”, the Salvation Army brass band was depicted on screen with their pre-recorded brass section accompanying the band’s performance. After \u201cIn God\u2019s Country\u201d, Bono went around his fellow members and inquired about what they miss about being away from home, resulting in revealing responses. Another outstanding song from the album, and another favourite of mine, was the blues influenced “Trip Through Your Wires”, with Bono playing the harmonica again, which was accompanied by visuals of The Edge’s wife dressed as a cowgirl while an American flag is being painted onto a wooden shack.<\/p>\n

Prior to “Exit”, a clip from \u201850s Western TV series \u2018Trackdown\u2019 was shown and so, during the performance of the song, Bono wore a black suit and preacher hat and adopted the persona of a character known as “Shadow Man” as the song\u2019s music almost bordered on metal mayhem. Ending \u2018The Joshua Tree\u2019 with the intense \u201cMothers Of The Disappeared\u201d, a song about women whose children had disappeared in countries ruled by dictatorship, it was supported by fitting visuals of children holdings candles, blowing them one by one by the time the song concluded. In retrospect, it seems ironic that U2 became superstars on the back of such a dark album but, paradoxically, their focus had never seen more light, resulting in the remarkable \u2018The Joshua Tree\u2019, the band\u2019s best-selling album to date.<\/p>\n

After one and a half hours of \u2018The Joshua Tree\u2019 and, following a four-minute break, U2 returned for an encore, running through \u201cDesire\u201d, \u201cElevation\u201d, and \u201cVertigo\u201d, following which Bono introduced the members of the band, as if it was required at all. After \u201cEven Better Than The Real Thing\u201d, it was the acoustic guitar of The Edge on \u201cEvery Breaking Way\u201d [from \u2018Songs Of Innocence\u2019], and his harmonising with Bono, that showcased The Edge\u2019s vocal talents too. \u201cBeautiful Day\u201d was next, followed by “Ultraviolet [Light My Way]”, wherein the video screen displayed \u201cWomen Of The World Unite\u201d with images of women achievers.<\/p>\n

With \u201cLove Is Bigger Than Anything In Its Way\u201d as the second last song, Bono said, \u201cThank you for two unforgettable nights\u201d, moving to the appropriate end by performing “One”, preceded by Bono discussing the fight against HIV\/AIDS.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>After almost two hours, 20 minutes, the band bade farewell as they strode off the stage with memories for the 40,000 strong audience who would cherish that unforgettable night for posterity. With U2 reaching the shores of India for its Mumbai gig on December 12, November 22 saw the band releasing a new song, “Ahimsa”, with A.R. Rahman, which is due to be showcased live during their December 15<\/strong> gig.<\/p>\n
