AUGUST 27: Daniel Lanois joins U2 on stage for the 1st time / MacPhisto calls home and Jordan left a message / red shirt # 7!

"ZOOTV" tour - august 27, 1992. U2 perform in Montreal, Quebec, Canada at the Olympic Stadium. For "The Fly", many of the slogans are translated into French, as was done in France on the European leg. "What time is it?" Bono asks, quoting Axl Rose. A few weeks before, "Guns'N'Roses" and "Metallica" had performed at the Olympic Stadium. In a bizarre pyrotechnic accident, the lead singer of Metallica, James Hetfield burned his hand during the show. After "Metallica" ended their set early, "Guns'N'Roses" was forced to go on early. After asking the crowd, "What time is it?" and then announcing, "We gotta go..," Axl Rose ended the show after only four songs. A melee ensued with almost $10,000 fans rioting in Montreal. Daniel Lanois joins U2 at the B-stage with a guitar to perform with them -- it's his first guest appearance at a U2 concert even though his credits with the band go back into the Eighties. During "Desire" a fan jumps up on the stage and is immediately tackled by a large security officer -- Bono waves security off and sits and sings the rest of the song directly to the fan. Support is B.P. Fallon, "Primus" and "Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy".

"ZOOTV - Zooropa" tour - august 27, 1993. U2 perform in Dublin, Ireland at the Royal Dublin Society Showgrounds. Days before the first of two shows in Dublin, local health officials announce they will take action against U2 because promotional posters for the concerts show Bono smoking a cigar, when it is illegal to use tobacco products in advertisements. During tonight's show, MacPhisto calls home, where Bono's four-year-old daughter Jordan has left a message on the answering explaining that the family is on vacation, and "we're not coming home until you take the horns off."

"Elevation" tour - august 27, 2001 / Glasgow, Scotland - SECC - Cosmic Rough Riders. Bono adds the 'shine like stars' verse in 'With or Without You.' Edge wears red shirt # 7, this night!
