On September 29, 2023 the time had come: U2 performed the first concert of their hotly anticipated Las Vegas residency. As part of “U2: UV Warning Baby Live at Sphere”, U2 (without their drummer Larry Mullen Jr.) will play shows in the US desert metropolis until December 16, 2023.
These are very special shows – the band performs their album “Aehrung Baby” in its entirety (albeit split into two parts). This evening there was also a “Rattle and Hum” interlude, an extensive encore and some special features.U2
