Band now holds top 2 spots for highest attendance for one-performer show...
U2 has broken its own attendance record for the best-attended single concert performance at a US venue by one headliner.
The band's 360 Tour played the Pasadena, CA Rose Bowl on October 25 to a sellout crowd of 97,014, based on reported box office totals.
The old record was set on September 25, 1987 at the now-demolished John F. Kennedy Stadium in Philadelphia. A crowd of 86,145 was in attendance then for the band's Joshua Tree Tour.
