U2. The Joshua Tree Tour.

This was a concert tour by U2 (Irish band) which was staged in support of their 1987 hit album, The Joshua Tree.

So the first leg of the tour was in North America, then onto Europe for the second leg and then back to North America for the third leg of the tour.

Why was this a success? because each venue was sold out, they performed in huge hit venues, arenas and stadiums and they sold each and every ticket, the tour was about social and political terms with Bono donating huge amounts of the profits to his charities in Africa due to his ongoing work there.

Bono also used his success here to up U2's fame and fortune and used that to create "save the World" and then go on to further hit every venue they could across the world and increase his work in humanitarian aid.

U2 for me, when someone asks me which band I would consider the most international success it's them, hands down.

My pick goes to U2's 360 Tour from 2009-2011.

Sadly, I didn't witness it myself, but boy, the numbers are just crazy! A 300-person crew supported the tour, managing a 175-ton spider-like stage structure that traveled across the world. Just look at the stats (link). And well, it's U2!

What is the influence? they set a new standard for the live shows, a new level!

Foo Fighters - Concrete and Gold (2017-2018)

My favourite band to hear live. The energy, passion and commitment to the fans is there for all to see.

The amount of huge hits they have and how perfectly they blast these out to sold out tours is unrivalled in my mind.

They have such a diverse fan base and that's kudos to them for the quality of their music, lyrics and performances!

So many talk about Foo Fighters and their legendary live performances and they sell out so fast because they just rule the rock world!

When talk about big tour music, I choose Queen Live at Wembley 1986

MJ Heal The World - Live in Munich 1997

ONE OF HIS BEST MUSIC AND PERFORMANCE, ESPECIALLY ON THE PART HES BLOCKING THE TANK

beside all my bias to MJ, King of Pop himself. I also read a good explanation for the "Heal the World" Music itself

caring for the living is not limited to human beings but extends to all forms of life, advocating for actions that restore health and harmony to the world's ecosystems.
