Vertigone Party
May 23, 2005, Paradise Rock Club,
Boston, MA

The end WAS as fun as the
start!
Hola!
Adios! It's the last stop of the Vertigo Tour's 1st leg, and
@U2 celebrated in style with our Vertigone
Party at the historic Paradise Rock Club in Boston! Yes
... the same Paradise Rock Club where U2 performed now-famous
shows in late 1980
and early 1981!
It
was the perfect bookend to our "Vertigo's
Eve" party that
kicked off the tour in San Diego. Just as we did then, our
special guests in Boston were the African
Well Fund and we were thrilled to have this party be the
capper to their annual "Build a Well for Bono's Birthday" fund
raising campaign. The campaign, like the party, was a huge
success, raising more than $26,000 to help bring clean water
where it's needed in Africa.
We were also joined in Boston by The
Joshua Tree Band -- you may remember them as the same
tribute band that blew the roof off of the Hard Rock at our Swinging
To The Music party in November! And special thanks to Rebecca
Correia, who opened up for The Joshua Tree Band.
Most of all, thanks to all the great fans who came out for
a wonderful night -- we had U2 fans from England, Ireland,
Canada, and Brazil helping celebrate the end of the first leg
of Vertigo. PHOTOS
