U2 - DVD Collectors Box
Background Information: U2 [Top] U2 is an Irish rock band featuring Bono on vocals & guitar, The Edge on guitar & pianos, vocals & bass, Adam Clayton on bass & guitar & Larry Mullen, Jr. on drums. U2 has been one of the most popular rock bands in the world since the 1980s. The band is also very politically active in human rights causes. The band was formed in Dublin in October 1976. 14-year-old Larry Mullen, Jr. posted a note on his secondary school bulletin board seeking musicians for a new band. The response that followed that note resulted in a 5-piece band, known at the time as Feedback, with Mullen on drums, Adam Clayton on bass guitar, Paul Hewson on vocals, Dave Evans & his brother Dik on guitar. Bono was named after Bonavox, a store that sold hearing aids & The Edge got his name from Bono who thought it was an accurate description of his head. After 18 months of rehearsals, Feedback changed their name to The Hype. The band performed with their new name at a talent show in Limerick, Ireland on 17 March 1978.
