We're looking for a good 1987 photo and that one may do the trick. Actually, the thing with the TIME photographer happened at the 2nd show, April 4 -- but that's plenty close enough. :-) Thanks again! And thx to all who have helped here... Awesome Pam - thank you!

The footage appears in the 'Outside It's America' documentary, when the concert is paused so a Time photographer can shoot the band in front of their audience. http://www.u2diary.com/pix1/21165904.jpg is from the first show of the Joshua Tree tour.

We're well aware that the year is on a couple of the photos. And I can come up with a year for most of the others. But we need DATES. :-) Thx guys.

Based on tour dates, I'd guess it's most likely from Chicago April 1981, the weather is too nice in the photo to be from Chicago shows in December 1981 or February 1982. http://www.u2diary.com/pix1/21165928.jpg A nearly identical photo appears on the cover of Melody Maker dated Nov 10, 1984. The article references following the band from Nantes to Paris, so probably one of the live shows from this timeframe in October 1984. http://www.u2diary.com/pix1/21165781.jpg
