Live from Paris is a concert video and live album by Irish rock band U2. It was recorded during the band's concert at Hippodrome de Vincennes in Paris, France, on 4 July 1987 during the Joshua Tree Tour. The concert was originally released in video form on the bonus DVD that was included in the remastered box set of The Joshua Tree, released on 20 November 2007. The following year, the concert was released as a digital music download exclusively in the iTunes Store on 21 July 2008.[2]
Innocence + Experience: Live in Paris was originally scheduled to air on American television network HBO on 14 November 2015 to showcase a performance by U2 on their Innocence + Experience Tour at AccorHotels Arena in Paris, France from earlier that day.[1] However, the broadcast was rescheduled after the terrorist attacks in Paris the day prior forced the postponement of the band's final two Paris concerts, which were scheduled for 14 and 15 November.[2] The shows were rescheduled to 6 and 7 December,[3] making them the final dates of the European leg of the tour.[4] According to tour producer Arthur Fogel, "minimal" refunds were requested (3,000 of the 34,000 tickets sold). The rescheduling posed logistical challenges for the band, as the tour was supposed to end in Dublin more than a week prior to the new Paris dates, and crew members and equipment had been set to disperse. Arena security was bolstered for the rescheduled shows.[5] Writing about U2's plan to return to a Paris still on high alert, Don Kaplan of the New York Daily News said, "The Dublin band, born in the crucible of violence that gripped Ireland in the 1970s and '80s, has long collaborated with other musicians, artists, celebrities, and politicians to address issues concerning poverty, disease, and social injustice. That they've now opted to challenge terrorism and fear should surprise absolutely no one."[6]
On 15 March 2021, U2 announced a concert broadcast series called "The Virtual Road" in partnership with YouTube, by which four of the group's past concert films were remastered and streamed on the band's official YouTube channel for 48 hours each. Innocence + Experience: Live in Paris began streaming on 10 April, with a pre-recorded performance by French rock band Feu! Chatterton serving as an "opening act".[13] To coincide with the broadcast event, a four-track EP of songs from Innocence + Experience was released to streaming services and digital stores.[14]
On November 20, 2007, U2 released a remastered version of The Joshua Tree to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the album. Included in the deluxe box set was a DVD of their performance from Paris France, recorded July 4, 1987 at Hippodrome de Vincennes. It was the first official release of any material from this concert although parts of the concert had been previously broadcast live on British Television as part of the Island Records 25th Anniversary Celebration in 1987. The initial broadcast of the concert did not feature the entire performance.
U2's iNNOCENCE + eXPERIENCE Tour kicked off in Vancouver in May 2015 and, to date, has played to over 1.2 million fans in 22 cities across Europe and North America. Staged in the round, the tour features multiple performance areas plus a state of the art 100 foot LED screen suspended above a 118 foot walkway running the length of the arena floor. Combined with an innovative suspended sound system, the tour has delivered mindblowing sound and visuals from every seat in every venue. As Rolling Stone put it, "U2 reinvent the arena show." From 'Songs of Innocence' musical highlights include "Cedarwood Road", "Song for Someone" and the stripped down live version of "Every Breaking Wave". Career-spanning staples include '"I Will Follow", "Pride (In the Name of Love)", "Vertigo", "Sunday Bloody Sunday", "Until The End of the World", "Beautiful Day" and "Where The Streets Have No Name".
U2 will perform its Innocence + Experience concert live Monday in a HBO broadcast in Paris, less than a month after a scheduled Paris concert that the group was planning was postponed when terrorist attacks in the city left more than a hundred dead.
The Irish rock group was set to perform Nov. 14 at the AccorHotels, which HBO was going to tape live to air delayed in the U.S. for a prime-time special the following Sunday. But with the state of emergency across France in response to several attacks, the concerts were postponed.
The venue where the band was set to play is less than three miles from the Bataclan concert hall where gunmen opened fire during a sold-out show for the Southern California band Eagles of Death Metal, killing dozens.
After starting their tour in Tulsa, Oklahoma, on My 2, Bono and his group will come over the Old Continent from August 31, 2018 with a concert in Berlin, followed by a series of European dates including Cologne, Madrid, Copenhagen, Hamburg, Amsterdam, Milan, Manchester, London, without forgetting Paris.
He and Bono share a few moments of ballad-like piano pieces and those natural progressions that shift the mood are well placed. Imagery and lighting provide a spectacle, Bono yanking people from the crowd to sing City of Blinding Lights to show those shockwaves of improvisation that have served U2 so well. Bono and friends found themselves with a responsibility, a need to entertain those that had been hit by tragedy. Innocence + Experience, Live in Paris is likely the most genuine Bono has gotten with his rightful, do-gooding intentions. It feels natural, and powerful. U2 cements that core reason for seeing live music. Moving spectacles and experiences like that are once-in-a-lifetime events, and Hamish Hamilton does a great job of directing this powerful, lengthy concert.
iNNOCENCE + eXPERIENCE is available on standard DVD, while a blu-ray and two-DVD edition adds plenty of extra content including extra live material (including being joined on stage by Patti Smith) and all the promo videos from the Songs of Innocence album.
As a result of the ongoing state of emergency across France, the U2 Paris concert scheduled for 14th and 15th November will not be going ahead as planned. U2 and Live Nation, along with HBO who were due to live broadcast the Saturday concert, are fully resolved to go ahead with this show at an appropriate time.
U2 were scheduled to play a concert in Paris on Saturday that was going to be broadcast live on HBO, but the band have canceled the show in the wake of the horrific events that took place in the city on Friday.
The following statement was posted to the band's website: "As a result of the ongoing state of emergency across France, the U2 Paris concert scheduled for 14th November will not be going ahead as planned. U2 and Live Nation, along with HBO who were due to live broadcast the Saturday concert, are fully resolved to go ahead with this show at an appropriate time."
If you have the suitable technical equipment at home, you will be very pleased: U2 comes directy into your living room and many will find it very hard to stay on their sofas while watching. We were able to witness how good the sound really is during the "Official Private Screening" in Paris: During the screening in the cinema we got the feeling of being right there at the concert in the arena.Admittedly, some small "mistakes" by the Edge were corrected but this was done so professionally that the listener will not notice these small corrections.The vast majority of the recoding is from the concert on 7 December, yet at some points scenes from the concert on the previous day were discreetly mixed in. We do not know whether this was done as the recording from 7 December was not considered good enough or whether it was important to the producers to include scenes from 6 December.In fact, these cuts are done so discreetly that nobody will notice when just watching the recording without particular focus on these edits. Just the backstage shots of "The Fly" are clearly not from 7 December: Larry's taped forearm shows that these scenes are not from this concert (and not from the previous one) but seem to be from the 2nd Glasgow show. While the last DVD "At The Rose Bowl" was produced by Tom Krueger, this time Hamish Hamilton is back at the helm. We already know him from earlier U2 concert films as "Live From Slane" or "Live In Boston".With "Live In Paris" we, again, witness a typical Hamilton: deliberately slightly blurred shots are taken from the audience and sometimes the focus is being changed to get blurred images. In some scenes the camera moves back and forth between Bono, Edge, Adam and Larry - this seems somewhat unsual as this is usually done with cuts or edits using different angles.Nevertheless, these "effects" are rather fitting than disrupting and complete a great movie from the last concerts of the i+e Tour 2015. Even if you did not attend the concert in Paris or no concert of last year's tour at all, you will enjoy it and will now (if not before) think about going to one of the concerts on the next tour.
Staged in the round, the iNNOCENCE + eXPERIENCE Tour features multiple performance areas plus a state-of-the-art 100-foot LED screen suspended above a 118-foot walkway running the length of the arena floor. The concert film showcases U2's latest album Songs of Innocence, featuring new fan-favourites Iris, Cedarwood Road and Song for Someone, as well as hits from across their career, including I Will Follow, Pride (In the Name of Love), Vertigo, Sunday Bloody Sunday and Bullet the Blue Sky. 781b155fdc
