U2: At the End of the World

U2: At the End of the World

The most intimate and appreciative biography ofÂ Â the mega rock band U2 to date--by the author toÂ Â whom the band gave complete access.Â Â

When U2 took the stage for their three-year Zoo TVÂ Â world tour in 1991, Bill Flanagan was there--inÂ Â the bus, on the plane, in the recording studio andÂ Â well after hours with the biggest rock band in theÂ Â world. A tour that began to support the hugelyÂ Â successful Achtung Baby record and ended with aÂ Â second, even more successful record, Zooropa, took U2Â Â to the far reaches of the world, playing to over aÂ Â hundred sold-out arenas in over fortyÂ Â cities.

U2 At The End Of The WorldÂ Â takes you on the world tour and drops you off atÂ Â the cultural intersection where rock stars meetÂ Â politicians; where writers, directors, and models allÂ Â wind up backstage with U2. You're there when theÂ Â band meets Bill Clinton in a Chicago hotel room;Â Â when Salman Rushdie comes out of hiding to join theÂ Â band onstage at Wembley Arena in London; whenÂ Â Frank Sinatra and Bono record their famous duet,Â Â "I've Got You Under My Skin." And finally,Â Â when the band performs their last Zoo TV concert inÂ Â Tokyo in 1993 and nearly collapses from physicalÂ Â and mental exhaustion, you are there with themÂ Â waiting for the end of the world. Augmented withÂ Â sleek photos by renowned photographer Anton Corbijn,Â Â U2 At The End Of The World is theÂ Â most definitive book on the band toÂ Â date.
