 U2 | U2 isn't too happy about politicians using premium tickets to its concerts as a lure for fund-raising efforts. The lure of sitting in a luxury box and watching U2 play live reaches across the aisles, as both Democrat Hilary Clinton and Republican Rick Santorum are using tickets to U2’s upcoming shows as part of a fund-raising package: Donate a bunch of money to the party, meet a senator then rock out in the most expensive concert seats of your life. “U2 concerts are categorically not fundraisers for any politician,” a statement from the band read. “They are rock concerts for U2 fans.” They’re also fundraisers for U2, with tickets starting at $50. |
