U2 dedicates song to Chris Cornell at Rose Bowl concert (5-20-2017)

Bono paused before U2 did Running to Stand Still at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena Saturday (5/20) and said, 'For The lion that was, Chris Cornell'. Before the  Joshua Tree Tour concert began, the massive speaker system cranked out Soundgarden's Black Hole Sun and the crowd of 100,000 responded by lofting cell phone screens in tribute to Cornell.

The Edge falls off U2 stage on opening night of 2015 tour (5-14-15)

The Edge took a frightening fall off of U2's new touring stage during the opening night of the Irish band's 2015 world tour on Thursday (5/14) in Vancouver. Ironically, the fall came as he meandered along the edge of the stage's runway while playing I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For.  Evidently, that would be the edge. He later posted an Instagram photo of a scrape on his arm the fall caused.

The band set-up busker style on a trin platform beneath the station and did a trio of tunes, Beautiful Day, Angel Of Halem and Song For Someone. The group will guest on the Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon on Friday.

Stripped down Mandela song performed at Oscars

Whatever soul or conviction was behind Ordinary Love, the song U2 wrote in tribute to the last Nelson Mandela, got lost in the over produced slog the band delivered for the movie soundtrack. The version the Irish Rockers did during the Academy Awards Show Sunday (3/3) was very basic and far more compelling.
