The Official WE NEED ABOY + MORE from SNL Thread

Lets keep this close to the top of the Thread lists so we don't forget HOW LIFE NECESSARY IMPORTANT it is to find a source for this tune.

Damn network Nazi's cutting U2 off when they were getting so fired up!

As far as I am concerned the set is not complete until we have this!

I am the video, or at least audio will show up. Apparantely it was played in the west coast.

For the love of god please be right

 

[innocent_eyes]

Hopefully, they were a bit nervous on Vertigo, rightfully so though, and they got more comfy and couldn't get off the stage!! AMAZING!!!!

 

[fmattyh]

I don't think ABOY was on the west coast. Someone mentioned that the SNL performance was aired in its entirety, and I think they were referring to the whole "IWF during ending credits and grinding woman's face" part.

Will we ever see the ABOY performance? Only if NBC decides to ever air it or release the tapes for it. You can bet, though, that it was AMAZING, considering how ridiculously hyped up and excited the entire studio was.

 

[indigo tree]

i'm on the west coast and so far they've only aired Vertigo.

 

[mwheelonh]

yeah, guys, sorry, but west coast episode is only half over now.

will let you know if the execs came to their senses and showed aboy (sorry, no way to record it if they do)

 

[indigo tree]

Yeah, I wouldn't know how to record it either.

 

[RobVox]

Best moment for me right now in IWF: when Bono and Edge are singing together and then Bono with a smile says, "I will follow you anywhere Edge."


RobVox

 

[innocent_eyes]

what a travesty, they looked like they were considering to show it but decided not to at the last second!

The credits finished rolling and they were still filming, then the note hit, then it ws over..damn shame, what a show that'd been!

must have ABOY....

 

[wolf Q]

I agree, I want ABOY! I was so pissed when Bono said "One more" and they cut it!

 

[Lisa71]

Yeah, mine too!

[disco2blue]

I loved 'I will follow', and I thought that SYCMIOYO sounded great live!!!..

 

[starsgoblue]

I really think SNL should post the video of ABOY. I was screaming at the TV when they cut it off!

 

[namkcuR]

anyone out west watching? Show should be ending right about now. Are they keeping on?

 

[indigo tree]

They cut off aboy here in the west coast.

 

[RobVox]

They cut of aboy here in the west coast.

Damn shit-eating Nazi's...sigh, I still have hope that it will surface.

It's official...NBC SUCKS

 

[jay canseco]

Bono had better be careful using the audience members as a prop. That wasn't a PLEBA member by her reaction.

 

[starsgoblue]

Well they should at least post it online somewhere....that was amazing. I have never seen anything like that on SNL or anywhere else for that matter---Bono just rips into it and says, "One more".

sexual harrassment?

Drop NBC an email about it - It could hurt to tell them that it might be a good idea to webcast this - enough people write maybe they will listen

 

[namkcuR]

The 'one more' thing was eeirly reminiscent of the liquor shop roof Streets shoot in 87 - cops wanted to shut them down and Bono said through a bullhorn, 'All we're asking for is one more!'

 

[RobVox]

Well keep this thread alive kids, I must get some sleep or I think I will die...I will keep the first post updated.

Before I head off to bed I just have to say I love all of you fellow U2 fans, it is nice to have people to share such magical moments with. I mean, I am a pretty new member here but for almost 20 years now I have loved U2 and I was always hard pressed to find people who understand what U2 means to me.

Thanks for sharing that with me.

[stargift]

according to u2log.com they played 3 more songs--aboy, vertigo again, and one no one remembers the name of it.

 

[hanoverquay]

so, does anybody found ABOY?

[InVertigo]

GUYS ALSO E-MAIL HERE: NBCiQuestions@nbc.com

WE NEED TO LET THEM KNOW. IT ONLY MAKES THE NIGHT MORE HISTORIC TO BOMBARD THEM WITH REQUESTS TO AIR OR WEBCAST THE WHOLE PERFORMANCE!

And there's an SNL mesage board on nbc.com here: nbc.com/boards/SNL_0405

People are going crazy who aren't even u2 fans. you should read them. I'm posting now.

 

[trevgreg]

If NBC knew any better, they would think of how much money they could make out of selling the post-SNL songs on their site, haha.
