Subject: Task 9

My music preferences are pop and rock, but my favorite band is U2, I love them and I thought it is one of the best bands of the world. The band was formed in 1976, in Ireland, before punk had reached their hometown of Dublin. They became one of the most popular rock & roll bands of the '80s. It begins when Larry Mullen Jr. (drums) posted a notice on a high school bulletin board asking for fellow musicians to form a band. Bono Vox ( vocals and guitar), The Edge (guitar, keyboards, vocal), Adam Clayton (bass), and Dick Evans responded to the ad, and the group formed as a Beatles and Stone cover band called the "Feedback", before changing their name to "The Hype" in 1977. Shortly afterward, Dick Evans left the band to form the Virgin Prunes. Following his departure, the group changed their name to "U2". Until now they recorded 15 albums, 41 singles and 10 videos!!! They are really the best! There are too many things to say about them, but I'd spend a lot of pages, so I advise you go to some of the thousands of homepages about them (the best is U2.com) and read a little bit about them, I think if you donīt like U2 you will love them!
