"At the show last night in Lakewood and as a U2 fan since the early 80s there were many highlights. I have seen every U2 tour since the '87 Joshua Tree show in Dublin and can honestly say last night's 'wild horses' performance was better than anytime I have seen U2 play it. The whole show was fantastic and especially enjoyed An Cat Dubh & Out Of Control duo. I won't spoil it for any future audience goers who might read this, but as an Irish man from Dublin the second to last song was a great surprise and spectacular performance! (It's somewhat a second national anthem back home) Really enjoyed the storytelling in between songs too! Great show and highly recommended to go out and see these guys!"

Wide Awake - A U2 Experience is the fastest growing tribute to U2 in the United States. They perform material spanning all 40+ years of the magnificent U2 catalog. Their mission is to give their audience an authentic live U2 experience while musically staying true to U2’s iconic studio recordings. Wide Awake is made up of professional touring musicians who are as crazy about U2 as the fans who have been filling venues everywhere the band has played since the group’s inception in 2021. They have built up a sizable library including all the big hits such as “Where the Streets Have No Name,” Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For” and “With or Without You, but it’s the material that isn’t played often, even by U2 that makes these Wide Awake shows memorable. “An Cat Dubh,” “Into the Heart,” “Wild Horses,” “Trip Through Your Wires,” “Running To Stand Still,” Unforgettable Fire” and “Stay (so close so far away)” and so many more. If Wide Awake brings their U2 Experience anywhere close, be sure to get tickets to see this show!
