“When we were younger, we had very clear-drawn enemies — us versus them,” says @u2 lead singer Bono. “And then as we went through the ‘90s, things started to change for us, and we started to realize the biggest obstacles in the way of our personal development and our band’s development were internal forces.”
So how did U2 manage to stick together? By pushing themselves creatively, working with people they admire and, most importantly, trusting themselves. As guitarist The Edge explains, “I think that the secret of our band is the fact that we met at a very young age and made a commitment to be part of something together, long before we understood what that might become.”
