Has anyone seen on LiveNation.com that they have a U2 listing for the Sunset Strip House of Blues on Dec. 31? It came up through U2 and NOT the tribute bands.
I assume it's for a tribute band. There's the group The U2 Incident that are playing Cleveland's HOB in April.
Still, it wouldn't be totally shocking for U2 to do it. What would be shocking is for Live Nation to actually sell tickets for it. It seems like it should be a contest or a charity thing.
Just to follow up on this...
I have NO idea if U2 would/could play the HOB on the Sunset Strip this New Year's Eve, but the information is now gone from Live Nation's page, and none of the other tribute bands have dates for Dec. 31, 2009.
Live Nation affiliates produce many different types of shows, including U2 tribute bands. No big surprise, really, same as TicketMaster for certain events.
