U2’s Adam Clayton: New Arrangements Give Weight To Earliest Tunes

U2’s Adam Clayton believes that by reinventing some of the band’s oldest tunes on their new Songs Of Surrender collection, the songs have only now grown into what they were meant to be.

Among the early tracks U2 has revisited some 40-years-on are such classics as “I Will Follow,” “Two Hearts Beat As One,” “Stories For Boys,” “11 O’Clock Tick Tock,” and “40.”

• U2 has announced its “U2: UV Actung Baby Live At The Sphere” shows this fall at “Sin City’s” new globe-shaped arena.
• The MSG Sphere shows will mark the band’s first without drummer Larry Mullen, Jr. and will feature temporary stand-in Bram van den Berg for the 2023 concerts.
• No official dates have been announced for U2’s Vegas stand.
