EAST LANSING, MI –

The Irish rock band U2 will bring the highest grossing concert tour in history to Spartan Stadium at Michigan State University on Sunday.

The U2-360 tour features an enormous set design. Speakers, lights and video screens are suspended from above the band.

Tour Director Craig Adams met with reporters inside the stadium to talk about the production. WKAR's Scott Pohl was there to record the news conference, which we present in its entirety.
Every WKAR News story you read is rooted in fact-based, local journalism, produced without commercial influence and available for free to everyone in mid-Michigan. No paywalls. Ever.

But this work doesn’t fund itself. With significant cuts to federal funding, public media is facing a critical moment. If you believe in journalism that serves the public interest, now is the time to act. Donate today.
