U2 Tickets in Philadelphia

U2 is an Irish Band who has already won 22 Grammy Awards, the highest number any band has ever attained. The band had humble beginnings on 1976 by the then-teenagers Bono (Paul Hewson), The Edge (Dave Evans), Adam Clayton, Larry Mullen Jr, Dave’s brother Dik, Ivan McCormick, and Peter Martin. The last three “dropped out” of the band at different timepoints due to different reasons but the band continued on. The band started with members of limited musical proficiency but grew into superstars with the release of their album, The Joshua Tree. By 2005, the band was already inducted into the prestigious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and is also listed as #22 of Rolling Stone’s 100 greatest artists of all time. After several albums, the band sought to develop their own “tradition” and looked into American blues, country, and even Gospel music; these music genres soon showed in their subsequent albums. During the last years of the 80s, the band received much criticism on their songs, albums, and overall musicality. Tough criticism, especially by Rattle and Hum, pushed the band to change their music but the 90s was, again, not the best time for them.In a bid to “reapply” as the “best band in the world”, U2 changed to a conventional rock genre and released All that You Can’t Leave Behind which contained singles that became worldwide hits and won Grammy Awards.
