U2 Tickets

U2 Biography: U2 formed in Dublin, Ireland on 25 September 1976. The origin of the name "U2" is unknown, but a famous 1960s surveillance plane, the Lockheed U-2, may have been the initial inspiration. There was an English punk rock band called V2 around at the time, and it is possible that U2 may have heard of them. Dublin punk Steve Averill claims it was chosen by the band from a list of ten names created by him and Adam Clayton, which seems pretty believable. In a 2002 Larry King interview, Bono said "I don't actually like the name U2," and "I honestly never thought of it as 'you too'."

On Saint Patrick's Day,1978, U2 won a talent show in Limerick, Ireland The prize was 500 pounds plus funding to record a demo tape, imagine how much those U2 tickets are worth today! This was an important milestone for the group, and served as a form of recognition. They recorded their demo tape at Keystone Studios, Dublin, in April 1978. U2's first EP, Three, was released in September 1979 and went to the top of the Irish charts. A couple months later, U2 performed at a U2 concert in London, and in February 1980, their second single "Another Day" was released in Ireland.

Within the next few years the band transformed from a largely improvisational and moody unit to one of the most polished and well-known rock bands the world has ever seen. They began to play large indoor arenas on the U2 tour in the USA and followed the same pattern in Europe soon after. In the mid-80s, The Unforgettable Fire was released, containing the iconic track, "In the Name of Love". Between 1986 and 1989 they released their Joshua Tree and Rattle and Hum albums, which featured the searing hits "Where the Streets Have No Name", "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For", and "With or Without You", as well as "When Love Comes to Town", the excellent bluesy number, performed with BB King.

Through the rest of the 90s and into the millennium, U2 have maintained their status as one of the top rock bands in the world selling out U2 tickets for all U2 concerts. They have continued to mutate and adapt to the changing musical environment while retaining their originality and verve. Bono's contribution to African relief charities and his tireless devotion to all kinds of worthy causes, has brought the band into the spotlight as much as ever, and in 2006 U2 won no less than 5 Grammy Awards.
