10月25日，U2在YouTube上直播他們2009年巡演的倒數(shù)第二場(chǎng)。樂(lè)隊(duì)為加州帕薩迪納玫瑰碗滿座96，000名觀眾進(jìn)行演出，并且成為史上最大的網(wǎng)上現(xiàn)場(chǎng)直播的演唱會(huì)。

樂(lè)隊(duì)經(jīng)紀(jì)人保羅麥吉尼斯稱：“U2早就想要這么做了，我們拍攝了洛杉磯的演出，這是絕好的機(jī)會(huì)把演出擴(kuò)展到露天體育館之外。”

他還補(bǔ)充說(shuō)：“從前樂(lè)迷們總是從很遠(yuǎn)的地方趕來(lái)參加U2的演唱會(huì)，現(xiàn)在U2去了他們那里，無(wú)論是在世界何處。”

周日的演出是樂(lè)隊(duì)為宣傳他們第十二張專輯《無(wú)邊的地平線》而進(jìn)行的360°演出的一部分。這場(chǎng)開(kāi)始于6月的巡演以最初用于演出的360°舞臺(tái)而命名。然而，就在7月份，它吵鬧的建設(shè)引發(fā)了都柏林市民憤怒的抗議。

盡管如此，巡演仍在繼續(xù)并且現(xiàn)今盈利超過(guò)160，000，000美元。第三站預(yù)計(jì)2010年8月在歐洲進(jìn)行。

這場(chǎng)演唱會(huì)將在YouTube上實(shí)現(xiàn)同步觀看，開(kāi)始時(shí)間是太平洋標(biāo)準(zhǔn)時(shí)間晚上8：30。而不幸的是，這意味這英國(guó)樂(lè)迷將不得不在凌晨4：30到y(tǒng)outube/u2official觀看這場(chǎng)直播。如果抗議的聲音不被采納，演唱會(huì)將在YouTube上全程播出，并且在表演結(jié)束后在上播放。

U2 are to stream the penultimate show of their 2009 tour live on YouTube this Sunday (25 October). The band will play the sold-out show to a crowd of 96,000 at California's Pasadena Rose Bowl, making it the largest concert ever to be streamed live online.

The band's manager, Paul McGuinness, said: "U2 have always wanted to do something like this for a long time. As we're filming the LA show, it's the perfect opportunity to extend the party beyond the stadium."

He added: "Fans often travel long distances to see U2, this time U2 can go to them, globally."

Sunday's concert is part of the band's 360o tour, which started in June in support of their 12th album, No Line On the Horizon. The tour was named after the original 360-degree staging used for the shows. In July, angry residents in Dublin protested against the stage, objecting to its noisy construction.

Despite the disruption, the tour continued and has now grossed over ￡160m. A third leg is scheduled to take place in Europe in August 2010.

The concert will be available to watch live on YouTube and is due to start at 8.30pm pacific standard time. Unfortunately, this means UK residents will have to stay up until 4.30am to watch it live at youtube/u2official. But if this sounds unappealing, the concert will be streamed in full on YouTube and on directly after the live show.
