- Feedback: The Birth -

In the early 70's a young drummer hung up a note on his school's notice-board saying he was looking for members to start a band. The young drummer's name: Larry Mullen Jr. The first to be asked was Adam Clayton, not because he was a good bassist, but because he was the coolest guy Larry had ever seen. Dave Evans, and his brother Dick, showed up at the meeting with a home-made guitar which gave a cool sound to the music. But none of the two could play though. Paul Hewson saw the note and responded to it saying he was a guitarist although he had never held one. Dick Evens quit. But the 4 guys stayed strongly together buy just playing songs, songs that didn't really sound well. Buy that time, Dave called himself "The Edge" and Paul falowed him and named himself "Bono Vox" - which means something like "Perfect Voice" - which wasn't actually true. By that time, the band was called "Feedback".

- U2: 3 -

They're first "gig", in 1977, lasted 10 looong minutes, but the crowd went completely wild. They changed the band name to "Hype", and this was actually the birth of a group that later would become one of the biggest bands in the Universe. In March '79, Adam got kicked out of school, which was great, because he start to dedicate more time to the band. The name "Hype" was considered an ill-chosen name for a band, so they've decided to change for the second, and last, time. This time "U2" was the name chosen due two reasons: the first was because Bono was born around the time a U-2 plane crashed and made the news and the second due to the pun "You Too". They won a contest in Limerick and were offered a session at CBS (now Sony Music) which resulted in "U2: 3". It also contained "Out of Control" which actually became an Irish Number One Hit.
