This Sunday, U2’s sold-out show at the Rose Bowl will be streamed live on video sharing site YouTube. With an expected crowd of 96,000 expected at the concert, this is the first time such a large show will be streamed live online. “The band has wanted to do something like this for a long time,” says manager Paul McGuinness. “As we’re filming the LA show, it’s the perfect opportunity to extend the party beyond the stadium. Fans often travel long distances to come to see U2 — this time U2 can go to them, globally.” YouTube will stream the concert across five continents, with two replays available after the live feed — on U2.com and YouTube.
