U2

Last year was a weird one for U2, what with that unfortunate iTunes snafu surrounding the release of Songs of Innocence, and Bono's Central Park bike accident, which led to the surreal occurrence of the Boss (and, yes, Chris Martin) filling in for the famed frontman at a World AIDS Day gig this past December. Tepid as Songs was, though, you know you still want to be there when these Irish stadium-rock faves blast through their myriad hits as part of a five-night run at Paris's Bercy Stadium.
