Man. Wish I could get stuff from the tv to the computer...not only do you people (and everyone else! *g*) need to see this vid, but I need to screencap and soundcap the living daylights out of it. ^_____^
Borrowed my hallmates' vcr, and watched the "Outside It's America" special, which aired on MTV back in 1987..and fortunately for all of us, my mom taped. ^_^ There is *abso-fucking-LUTELY* *no* point to it at *all* - it's a few random videos thrown in with tons of entirely random footage. And it's *great*. ^_^ Adam sunbathing on a plane runway..Edge inspecting the plane itself..Bono making up a song featuring guacamole..U2s playing pool..Larry attempting to ignore the camera that's following him around..Larry SINGING!!!..U2 gone country, multiple performances of "Lucille" and stuff..Bono making up a few lines about Adam and Edge in a song..then a whole song about Edge..The Edge singing!..and Larry puckering his lips at the camera.
*DIES*
..and then there's U2s boot-shopping, which's highly amusing (Larry: "I feel like a woman!")..as well as photo shoots, the story about them fighting for MLK in AZ, videos (inc. "Spanish Eyes" and "In God's Country")..all kinds of stuff. It's great. ^_^

U2 quotes of the moment:
Bono: *muttering* "No wonder we always look so morose in our pictures...we're so *bored*!"
photographer (I think Anton, actually): "What was that? are you bored?"
Bono: "Oh, no no no..." *laughter from the band*
- from the Outside It's America special....and those may or may not be verbatim, but, close, anyway... ^^;

"Your problem, Edge, is that you have too good of taste."
- Bono, from the Outside It's America special....again, may or may not be quite right..will check next time I watch it.
