Hi Everyone!
I'm sorry if this sounds a bit idiotic, but am I the only one who just found
out that U2 actually shot a video for "Red Hill Mining Town" from the Joshua
Tree LP? I couldn't believe my eyes! I went to the Ultimate Band List
website and typed in U2. They have a whole bunch of stuff for all different
bands and when I clicked on the link for pictures, I read in the description
that four pictures were from the "Red Hill Mining Town" video shoot!!! I
clicked on the link at once and there they were before my startled eyes,
four color photos taken from the shoot for that song!

One picture had Bono walking through a mine shaft and the other pictures
were of Larry and Edge working in the mine. This blew my mind! I never knew
there was a video for this song. Naturally, I have never seen it and began
to wonder if maybe they did shoot a video but only distributed it in Europe
or something.

Has anybody seen this video? Does anyone have a copy they would like to sell
or trade for? And does anybody else know that this video even exists and has
he/she ever seen it? Any help or background info you can give on this would
be greatly appreciated by this startled U2 fan! Thanks all!

Bill
