U2 Invites Tribute Band Onstage

[pldolan1]

Wow - these girls had to be blown away by the whole experience. Amazing. Good for them!

[killiney4444]

Insane. Thes girls went to loads of the shows and Bono recognises them. The guitarist was on stage before at another U2 gig.

[breastmeatonly]

How can you even tell if they're any good? The audio is shit.

[bhoyjack]

Brilliant ! shows what a peoples band U2 are...

[yappertrap]

[Upeter2]

[Mondensohnmamo]

[trevinor3]

[TimStatic]

I mean what would YOU do with this chance?? YOU GET UP THERE AND KNOCK IT OUT OF THE PARK!! YOU GO GIRLS!!!

[olekcj111]

lucky people :D

[u2slovakia]

lol ... I wanna play on Edges Explorer :D :D

[jthiesen1169]

I know these girls. I've played a couple shows with them back in the day when they were EXIT. U2 knew about them because they are at nearly EVERY concert, right up front, hanging outside their hotels, & also catching them at the airport. They got label interest from this, but it didn't go anywhere unfortunately. Their singer up and quit before they could take off. They were cool chicks. :)

[blue1976note]

cool, and U2 members wearing "the larry mullen band" t shirts, pretty cool !

[bhoyjack]

ha brilliant !!!

[planesntrains2002]

WOW!! How many people get to say they got pulled from the audience at a U2 concert, and play the Edge's first guitar. And Adams bass. Larry's drums??. that would be a truly mind bending experience.

[bhoyjack]

Brilliant ! shows what U2 are all about..

[gavofleon]

i'd die a happy man if that was me

[ginocaponemusic]

[paddy9i99]

Freaky.

[skrason]

That was so much fun I can't even stand it!

[EngineerMK2004]

this is the reason that U2 is the super group that they are. They know how to please their fans.

[Gladiator0719]

Out fucking standing!!!!

[shoestringconcerts]

haha i filmed this, you can hear me tlaking to the cute girl next to me before they start playing

[andisetsfire]

this is rly a drem come true for these girls isnt itt ( well it would be for any u2 fan) but they did great !

[Sweetfan78]

Dreams come true

[zooperson]

I was at this show and I was so happy for these girls! I had seen them atleast 5 times prior to that night and I couldn't believe my eyes when they got up there. Back in 2001 I saw Courtney (the guitar player) go onstage and play people get ready with U2 . That was my first U2 show. best U2 tribite band in the world... They do mostly original material now, good stuff.

[renownmaple]

I wish all bands would let tribute acts on stage. When I went to see Green Day perform, they pulled some random fans on stage to play (drummer, guitarist and bass player). I must say that I was impressed. Fan appreciation at it's best!

[jtcconnolly]

im so fuckin jealous

[ia5662]

wow I'm extremely impressed that this is an entire chick band of cute girls who can actually play their instruments. Not only that, but they didn't even pick a hit, they picked U2's very first single from the 70s, for them to even know it is incredible. Great job ladies! What else ya got!?

[ToolsnFire]

@ia5662, Out of Control was a hit in Ireland back then, it won the contest for the A-side of their first single on the radio show of that time.

[disneyfire]

I was at this show..the band was awesome musically..the singer seemed way nervous

[mcphisto85]

that's amazing! :| omg amazing :D

[JoyC666]

lol the mic. doesnt work at a point and i love how Bono laughs and says : oops, its out of control , hahha , wow these girls kick ass!!! for picking this song and playing it so good!!! their dream was made come true that day

[midgehock]

SPOT ON SPOT ON SPOT ON!!!

[terrasidius]

awesome! U2 really love their fans, their heads arent up their own arses, they know why they are the biggest band and they love their fans for putting them there. I see this and it makes me glad I am a fan of this band.

[mikea116]

I was at the Oakland, CA show on Nov9,2005 (8 days after this). Just before playing Bad at the end of the show Bono says "this is for the girls in Exit." I never understood what that meant until now. Very cool.

[phwguitar]

Girls, you are fantastic!

[SkivMarine]

Just a little something these young ladies will remember for the rest of their lives.

If only I was that young again....

[cyngirl23]

i was there! it was SO amazing...

to only play that guitar...

[bootymanager]

Donde esta?

[midgehock]

That was so cool I watched it twice in a row.

[daholstead]

i wish i could just hold the edges explorer nevermind play it

[japalgon]

Superb!!! This is why they are great!!

[willariza]

this kind of things make me feel full of happiness!!

[Dutychief]

Bitch on drums rocks!!!

[DJJO60]

Good tribute +++++

[corleonex]

incredible, i would give my life to play one song with u2 ,

[TheGreatGizzo]

Sweet!!!!!

[MyGr8DaneGuinness]

ROCK ON!!!!!!!!!

[agizzleg]

That would be such an honor to sing with one of the most famous and successful musicians alive.

[hrleslie]

wow theyre pretty good. how did bono know that they were a tribute band or anything?? i love how they brings fans up to sing with him.. its awesome

[tagjim]

pretty sure they had a big sign and were right up at the front of the ellipse.

[amydawned]

There wouldn't be enough Jack Daniels in Tennessee to make me play a U2 song in front of U2 even if I was an accomplished musician.

[katiik]

totally completely agree :)

[HunterMann]

@tagjim Things like this are worked out months in advance. Sorry to spoil any of the magic, but it's show biz, and much of the magic is just an illusion.
