U2's 1985 Concert History

U2 is an Irish alternative rock band from Dublin formed in 1976. The group consists of Bono (lead vocals and rhythm guitar), the Edge (lead guitar, keyboards, and backing vocals), Adam Clayton (bass guitar), and Larry Mullen Jr. (drums and percussion). Initially rooted in post-punk, U2's musical style evolved throughout their career, yet has maintained an anthemic sound built on Bono's expressive vocals and the Edge's effects-based guitar textures.

This was at the old (now demolished and replaced) Green point Stadium. An awesome concert.. never forget Bono starting to sing to the crowd "Shosholoza" when the stadium took over. With a band entering via a huge Lemon! What more could you ask for haha
