U2 to play East Lansing in June

U2 is going green.

The famed Irish band announced early this morning that its current tour will include a stop at Spartan Stadium in East Lansing on June 30. Ticket details are still to be announced, according to the group's Web site, U2.com, and the tour's promoter, Live Nation.

The band has been on the road playing stadiums worldwide since July, but its initial North American leg did not include a Michigan visit. The band last played here at the Palace of Auburn Hills in November 2005.

Spartan Stadium, which has a capacity of 75,000 for football games, has infrequently hosted major music events. The last big-time rock concert held there was a Rolling Stones date in 1994.

The quartet does have a small connection to MSU. On its second North American tour, it played the popular campus bar Dooley's in December 1981.

U2's 360 Tour was so named for a unique 360-degree set design that provides an unobstructed view for the entire audience.

The set includes an 164-foot-high structure dubbed the Claw, a cabana-like monolith that looms over the entire set, houses speakers on all sides and features a 14,000-square-foot video system.

The full list of tour dates is available at http://www.u2.com/tour/
