Then we got just the thing for you! At U2's concert in Nashville, USA on the 2th of June, one hopeful fan held up a sign saying "Blind Guitar Player. Bring Me Up." Lead singer Bono, being the kind-hearted person he is, obviously couldn't refuse the fan's request. He brought the fan up on stage at the end of the show - and what followed next can be seen in the video below!
It's enough to melt even the coldest of hearts!
U2
1976Rock, Post-Punk, Alternative Rock
U2 was formed by then teenagers Bono (vocals and guitar), The Edge (guitar, keyboards and vocals), Adam Clayton (bass guitar) and Larry Mullen, Jr (drums and percussion). The band became a top international act by the mid 80's and were noted for there anthemic sound, unusual vocals and The Edge's textural guitar playing. Their live performances became a greater success than the actual selling records, what apparently increased the band's stature "from heroes to superstars", according to Rolling Stone. They have today sold more than 140 million (!) albums worldwide and were introduced into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame during their first year of eligibility. The group has also campaigned for numerous causes such as DATA, ONE Campaign and Amnesty International.
22 Grammy Awards (more than any other band)
