U2 Fan Club

In August Irish band U2 stunned Russia in Moscow on their concert. This is the first time they were in Moscow and they are the on of few band that were in Russia doing rock performance. Rock in Russia is very popular, so you can just imagine how much people camed on their concert, plus its a big country.

After there great performance on stage and turning ears of Moscow people stunned by the great and awsome music, Bono met the president of Russia Dmitry Medvedev. That was day after they have travelet toSochi on Black Sea.
When the band camed on stage their first song was Beautiful Day, and the irony was that as soon they started to play the song the skies over the scene was full with raindrops. Over 50.000 crowd was dry during the rain because the stadium was used before for soccer mostly and over the seating area was a roof so most of the crowd stayed dry.
But the people that got wet, that wasnt the problem for them, they stood there and listened to great performance of the famous Irish rock band U2.The band was also wet, only the drums was dry but they have done what they camed to do even better then they would do.

Bono treated crowd to sing along with him the capella version song of “Singing in the Rain”, but most of fans there were mostly fammiliar to the song hits like “Where the Streets Have No Name” , “One” and “With or Without You” but that didnt stoped thr crowd to get on their feet and sing along with Bono and the band.
Later on Russian politics went heavier, when Bono while playing acoustic guitar invited rocker for Russia know as Yuri Shevchuk, onstage to join him and to play with him the Bob Dylan’s classic verion of “Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door”. Yuri is know for his politicals and publicly criticizing of Kremlin beaucse of his roilling back the democratic freedom.
And president and the rest didnt forgot about that, so Bono made a meeting to work that situation out.

At the end of their show they singed their last song ”Moment of Surrender” that was deticated to victims of wildfires that was swept Russia in this summer, and the rain stoped and the crowd was realeased into cool and nice August evening.
