Few would dispute U2's position as the biggest rock band in the world. Active and relevant for nearly thirty-five years Bono the Edge Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jr. have been masters of reinvention thriving artistically while continuing to sell out concerts across the globe.THTHFrom their start at Dublin's Mount Temple School in 1976 up to the 2009 Rose Bowl show that shattered a U.S. concert attendance record (previously set by the group in 1987) U2's members have experienced some amazing collective highs. But in its ascent the band has seen its share of personal artistic and commercial setbacks.THTHThese are just some of the topics EU2 FAQE explores: How did Bono recover his cherished suitcase of lyrics 23 years after its 1981 disappearance? What movie dialogue is sampled in the middle of Seconds ? What effect did bull's blood have on Larry's drumming? How did Bono's visit to Central America inform EThe Joshua TreeE? What are the details of Adam's 1989 marijuana bust? How did Mick Jagger wind up on EAll That You Can't Leave BehindE?THTHAward-winning music journalist John D. Luerssen goes beyond the essential facts delving into the legendary fables and unique anecdotes that make EU2 FAQE an indispensable read for all U2 disciples.
