However, according to new reports, it seems that the band are set to be adding more dates to the residency.The speculation arose after outlets like The New York Post claimed that U2 are set to add a total of 12 more dates to the list while organisers continue to seek out other acts to take on the headline spot at the $2.3billion venue.It is not yet clear whether these 12 extra dates have been locked in or not, however, with Bono and co.

The opening night of the new Sphere Las Vegas event space was a star-studded affair!

It is also the natural human reaction to just about any or all of “U2:UV Live at Sphere Las Vegas,” the greatest-show-on-earth that opened Friday night in an enormous dome just off the Strip.

NME writer Damian Jones also confirmed that Dr Dre and Flavor Flav were at the concert.Ahead of performing ‘Angel Of Harlem’ from ‘Rattle And Hum’, Bono said: “The macca [McCartney] is in our prescience.
