Watch U2 Play Achtung Baby Deep Cuts For The First Time In 30 Years At Las Vegas Sphere
U2 kicked off their residency at the Sphere in Las Vegas on Friday night, becoming the first band to perform at the venue. The performance (called U2:UV Achtung Baby Live At Sphere) was dedicated to their 1991 album Achtung Baby, which they played in full, mixed up and interrupted by an acoustic set halfway through and rounded out by an encore with some of their big hits, plus the recently-released single “Atomic City.”
