The band are performing on tonight's season premiere of NBC's Saturday Night Live. Tune in.

U2 smashed the house record tonight at Giants Stadium. The previous attendance record was held by Pope John Paul II after his visit to the stadium in 1995.

It's Magnificent on the front row, up against the stage. Ask anyone. (Or watch this.)

Rocko Reedy is U2's Stage Manager and if you're on the 360° road crew he needs your attention.

Adam, Larry, Edge and Bono: 'They're all taking part but what's unusual is that they aren't going to be U2, so I think we'll see something pretty different.' Gavin Friday talks to us about a unique musical event coming up at Carnegie Hall, New York, a week on Sunday.

Carnegie Hall in New York is the place to be on October 4th. Hal Willner presents a stellar line-up of artists to mark the birthday of Gavin Friday and to raise funds to fight AIDS in Africa. Tickets on sale now - here's the lowdown.

The band were in the studios of Toronto's The Edge music station yesterday. Toronto was ready to meet them... and the show's host got a little surprise.

While the band are playing, we take a look from the Toronto Tower...

Got a BlackBerry ? Start following the tour with the 'U2 Mobile Album'. It's just gone live.

Bono once called it one of his favourite U2 songs, it was written fourteen years ago but the band had never performed it live - until last night. Take a look.

360 Lifts Off in the US today. 'We're on our way to our first show in the US for many years, ' Bono tells us on the plane to Chicago . 'And we're very excited...'

Tomorrow night, they'll be taking this walk to the stage...

'There's no room, no space to rent in this town...' Not in Chicago, not on Saturday. Adam's filming on stage during Beautiful Day.

Adam's got his flip cam rolling for the latest clip in our Countdown to Saturday night.

Breaking News: the 360 stage has successfully completed its transatlantic voyage, arriving safe and sound on the shores of North America. (Now all they have to do is build it.)

'You don't get it do ya ?' Or maybe you do, if you were in Glasgow, Scotland last month. And maybe you will if you're in Chicago this Saturday.

'Unos, dos, tres....catorce!' This is what it's like in the front row when you're getting Vertigo. Latest countdown clip now live.

A week today and we'll be in Chicago for the first show of the North American leg. Show Director Willie Williams is having kittens in our latest Countdown clip.

Just eight days until the opening night of the North American leg of the tour and Sam O'Sullivan is packing up Larry's kit, ready for the transatlantic journey.

Berlin to Sarajevo, Zagreb to Dublin, you've been wearing the Aung San Suu Kyi mask all over the world. Edge has chosen some of his favourites.

'Nine days on the ocean, there' s nothing you can do about it so you can relax a bit...' Jake Berry, U2's Tour Production Director, has the shipping news.

We're counting down to the opening night of U2's 360° Tour in North America and Joe O'Herlihy is on sound in the first of our exclusive clips.

Second part of our U2.com mini-documentary on how Alma Catel, star of 1995's Miss Sarajevo, travelled to Zagreb last month to see the band play. (And what happened at the show...)

Now Playing: the Redanka remix of 'Crazy'. You might have heard it on the road, the remixed version of 'Crazy' was one of the highlights of the European leg of the tour.
