After touring Europe, U2 debuted their massive “360° Tour” tour at Chicago’s Soldier Field over the weekend. Taking the “in the round” idea and going huge with it, this tour features a rotating stage, 360-degree screen, planks that lead into the crowd, a giant claw-like centerpiece and all kinds of lights. Like they say, a picture is worth a thousand words and JamBase was on the scene both Saturday and Sunday night to bring you the story.
