U2's current 360� Tour has already broken records for venue attendance and stage size — it takes 120 trucks to cart the 164-foot-tall stage, dubbed "The Claw," between venues. Now comes a new record: On Oct. 25, its show will be the first of its magnitude to be streamed live on YouTube.
U2's sold-out show at Pasadena's Rose Bowl will be streamed live on YouTube starting at 8:30 p.m. PT (11:30 ET) on Oct. 25. The concert will be filmed for the stream, as well as for a future DVD release. The Rose Bowl show is set to have the venue's largest audience ever, with more than 96,000 fans in attendance. YouTube will stream the concert across five continents, allowing for a global audience of fans who won't get a chance to see the band live in their area. Luckily for fans who live where the show will begin at around 4 a.m., YouTube and U2.com will replay the show twice after the live stream.
