VIDEO: U2 on ‘SNL’
LONDON, ENGLAND - NOVEMBER 12: (Editors Note: Image has been converted to black and white) (L-R) The Edge, Bono, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jr of U2 pose with the Global Icon award during the MTV EMAs 2017 held at The SSE Arena, Wembley on November 12, 2017 in London, England.
U2 capped off a busy album release week by appearing on Saturday Night Live as the show’s musical guest.
The band released their 14th studio album Songs of Experience on Friday (December 1) and performed “American Soul” and “Get Out of Your Own Way,” both tracks from that album.
Perhaps it was just me, but Bono’s vocals seemed to get drowned out, especially by The Edge’s backing vocals, but other than that, it was a pretty solid live performance.
