U2 Live Performance of Out Of Control at Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Venue: Red Rocks Amphitheatre Location: Morrison, Colorado, United States Date: June 5, 1983

Before the live recording of 'Out Of Control' at Red Rocks on June 5, 1983, U2 had just released their debut album, 'Boy,' in 1980. This concert is notably one of their first major live performances that helped catapult them into international fame. The energy of the performance, combined with the breathtaking setting of the Red Rocks Amphitheatre, created a magical atmosphere that resonated deeply with fans. Interestingly, this live rendition would later be featured in the concert film 'U2: Live at Red Rocks,' showcasing the band’s early raw talent and charismatic stage presence. By the time of this recording, U2 was still evolving but starting to develop the anthemic sound that would soon define them in the '80s and beyond.
