The Anoeta stadium, home of Real Sociedad, has spent four days getting ready for the arrival of U2 which begins on Sunday in San Sebastian, where 50,000 spectators are expected.
The Irish band is back to the capital of Gipuzkoa (Basque Country) to offer one of the last concerts of their ‘U2 360º Tour’.
Bono (vocals and rhythm guitar), The Edge (guitar, keyboards, and vocals), Adam Clayton (bass guitar), and Larry Mullen, Jr. (drums and percussion), of U2 will be playing in Donostia-San Sebastian tonight.
This will be their second concert in 5 years in the capital of Gipuzkoa, given that the Irish band already visited the Anoeta football stadium in August 2005, when 40,000 fans attended the event.
After analyzing several technical facts of the venue, it was decided that the stadium could cope with more fans, so the allowed capacity increased from 40,000 to 50,000.
The U2 360º Tour kicked off in Barcelona last June. Since then, U2 have been traveling around the world playing to crowded stadiums. Another gig is planned for Seville on September 30th.
