Recorded in Berlin and released in November 1991, “Achtung Baby” and the next album “Zooropa” effectively restarted the race u2introducing new sounds, influences and songwriting styles and distancing them from the antemic rock style that had made them one of the biggest bands in the world in the 1980s. Their audience stayed with them every step of the way: the tour “Zoo TV” that followed lasted for almost two years and was watched by more than 5 million people.
The concerts will mark U2’s first concerts without Mullen since the band formed in Dublin in 1976; he had suggested the group might perform without him this year because of his unspecified surgery in a November interview about the quartet’s acceptance of a lifetime achievement award at a Kennedy Center Honors ceremony.
In the announcement of the Sphere shows, Bond, The Edge and Adam Clayton of the band talked about upcoming concerts and the relatively little-known van den Berg, a veteran of the Dutch group krezipin a joint statement:
“We’re going to need everything we’ve got to get close to the Sphere without our bandmate in the drum seat, but Larry has joined us in welcoming Bram van den Berg, who is a force in his own right.”
On March 17, u2 will release a new album called “Songs of Surrender”a collection of 40 U2 songs from across the band’s catalogue, “re-recorded and re-imagined for 2023” in sessions spanning the past two years.
