U2
On this day in music history, the band U2 stopped LA traffic with a video shoot they were doing on the roof of a store in downtown LA! Of course.. everyone wanted to see what was going on. BONO ON THE ROOF PERFORMING!? Yes, please!
The band was trying to make a video for their song, Where The Streets Have No Name. It attracted thousands of spectators and brought traffic to a complete stop!
Fun for a bit - but the police eventually had to stop the shoot!
