I like the Letterman show and watch it from time to time, especially if there is a guest on that I want to see. I don’t think I have ever watched the show religiously for a week straight. Last week was an exception because one of my favorite bands, U2, appeared on the show every night.
In all my years of watching Letterman (been watching since I was a kid), I have never seen an audience get so excited, so enthused, so jubilant over a musical guest than with U2. They lit the place up each and every night. I believe Dave himself has become a fan of the band.
Not only did they perform a different number each night, they were featured in a few comedy skits and were interviewed for a few minutes on Thursday night.
I have compiled videos of all their performances, the comedy skits and the interview below for your enjoyment. Now I can’t wait for the North American tour which should happen later this year.
