About The Concert
Live at the Winspear is proud to present Classic Albums Live Performs U2: The Joshua Tree! Few albums have the power to captivate us from the first few notes, but U2's The Joshua Tree does exactly that. The powerful and goosebump-inducing wall of sound in Where the Streets Have No Name is the perfect introduction to one of the most important and influential rock albums of all time. Filled with hits like I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For, With or Without You, and Running to Stand Still, The Joshua Tree is an album that has stood the test of time as an evergreen staple. Classic Albums Live has flawlessly recreated The Joshua Tree from start to finish, and will be performing it, as well as other hits from U2, for an incredible night of amazing music and nostalgia that you won't want to miss.
