by eventrev on Feb.15, 2010, under U2
U2 is a rock band that was started 25th September, 1976 as a high school band. The group is made up of Bono, Adam Clayton, The Edge and Larry Mullen Jr. The band is based in Dublin, Ireland.
They started as teenagers who had very little knowledge in terms of musical proficiency and within a period of four years they were able to secure themselves a contract with Island records which helped them release their first ever album called Boy. Up until 1987, they got more money though live performances as compared to the sales they got from their records. It was after they released their album titled The Joshua Tree that they were able to sell so many records.
They later on went ahead and released another album titled Achtung Baby in 1991 that which was considered to be a reinvention to the music world. However, the group only started singing rock in the late 80s after feeling that they were not achieving much with the type of music they were singing, they felt that there was more to music than what they were doing and that is when they introduced a new style of music where they introduced a new type of singing with an ironic tone. They continued with this type of music all through in the 90s, performing in major cities around the world with so many hit songs and so much success in what they were doing.
With twelve albums, twenty two Grammy awards under their belt and having sold 145 million records, they have been able to remain commercially successful. To add on to their success, the band was added to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2005.
They currently have a busy schedule and are expected to perform at the Angel Stadium in California on the 6th of June this year. Tickets for this concert start from 59 dollars for those who choose to seat between section P259 and P260, the price of the tickets increases an as you get closer to the stage where they will be performing. You can also purchase a ticket ant the Luxury suite for 9,700.00 dollars if you are looking for a more comfortable view where you will not be squeezed with the others. While at the Luxury suit, you will be at a vantage point and you will be able to see U2 perform without having your view being blocked by other people. In most cases the Luxury suit will be located somewhere up in the stadium on a sort of cube like structure made of glass. They also have another concert the following month in the same stadium.
However, for this particular concert which is expected to take place on the 6th of July, tickets will start selling for as low as 36 dollars. But that of the luxury suit will remain at 9,700.00 dollars. The most common tickets that are being purchased for these two concerts are for those people who want to seat at the red zone which is also considered to be a VIP section to; tickets for this zone are costing 530 dollars per person.
