So I've been all over the internet trying to find a good tribute band, who can either;
A) Play music exactly to the real thing or B) Sing exactly like Bono
While no band can truely be U2, these are what I think are the best tribute bands out there.
1. Lemon -- A band from Chile, they've done such songs as "When I Look At The World", "Dirty Day", "One Tree Hill" and "Please" really good songs. Here is a link to their website, I'll post some of their songs a little later:

2. Vertigo -- a band from Chile, sounds almost like the real deal at times. They have played songs like "In God's Country" and "Lemon" and are on par with the band and Bono.

3. Unforgettable Fire -- A New York based tribute band, where the lead singer looks almost identical to Bono, while the voice may not be on par some of the time, it certainly captures the soul and passion that Bono has. They've performed many songs, including "A Sort Of Homecoming" and a good rendition of "Miracle Drug" Really good group, worth checking out:

4. U2Zoo -- a band from Wisconsion (USA) who may not entirely look like the band, but the lead singer does an AMAZING JOB at playing Bono. If you listen to older songs like "Gloria" or "Sunday Bloody Sunday" or "With Or Without You" you'd swear you were hearing the 80s Bono. Check these guys out!

5. 2U -- These guys are pretty good, though the guitarist could use some work on the songs. However, the main singer has a mamouth voice, and when listening to songs such as "Where the Streets Have No Name" you often think of Bono during the Joshua Tree tour, his haunting, yet beautiful voice soars. This singer has captured it. They offer a lot of songs, and "Pride" has Bono (in the 80s) soaring on the "Ohs" before the beginning of the song. Good band if you want a feel of vintage U2 again.
