Reaching the peek of success!

After the firts concert for U 2 the things did not change, only get stronger and succsessful. The first concert for the Dublin Band got quite AWESOME and the offers could not stop arriving. U2 since the day of their first concert did not stop presentimg in them but each time the place where they play got bigger and while time passed the U2 fans increased, until there were fans all over the world! U2 was picked as one of the best bands as their succes increased.

"After U2 got picked as one of the top five bands in the world, they knew all these years are worth the pain" . This quote really inspired me because represent hard work always pays off and if you do not put hard work in it, you will not find succes. "Now averything that years ago was not even imaginable happened, now it was time to celebrate". This quote for me is very cool because it shows that if you put a lot of effort in something and you complete youtr objective then you will have time to celebrate as this guys had!!


This book has teach me a lot of things of hard work and that everything is possible. Other thing that this book taught me is that if something is not great at its start it can be great after time because at first I really did not enjoy this book, actually I thought it was boring but time passed and I read the whole book I finaly enjoyed it, I feel good for learning this!

First official concert of U2

After the band accepted Andrew's deal they got into a very hard work, they could not take a day off, they had to either compose a new song that had to be approved or work on the created song, or make a play in some public place. Days, weeks, and months passed and this band had already 6 songs composed by them, and things got ready to make the show, U2 was ready to give their first official concert. Adding the songs played by U 2 but not created by them they got a total of 9 songs, a lot for their first concert. The concert had a lot odf expectations and was in a kow class stadium but it was good for a first concert. Everything was ready and after a bigg speech by eceryone they knew this was going to be something great. The band started playing and they felt alive as never before.
 

 "The adrenaline was overcharged, the band knew all the effort of this last months could not be wasted, they knew the performance was going to be something big". This quote for me is very important because it shows how important this concert was for this band. "while playing their new "hit" U2 felt like never before, they felt that their music is worth the pain as they saw the smiles on the crowd's faces".  This quote is important to me because here U2 tell us how it feels to be playing a concert at a very young age.


This last part have been very exciting for me because as I read I felt all the emotions of U2 as they play in their first concert!!! I think U2 worked very hard to acomplish what they done and I think that for everything is like that so I think this band deserves the success. I think this has show me that great things are very hard working and are not sometime as people see, because I thought that play in a concert with a band was no much work but now I know that is a very hard work that requires time as it took to U2!

getting picked

After the band played incredible in the bar, the audience was impressed . And for U2's luck a music producer and talent hunter was in the bar, seeing it all, this new band's talent. He followed U2 to 5 more plays until he decided they got the talent. After being impressed all 5 times. The band thought this will last for some couple of years, this of playing in small bars or restaurants, but this thought last some days, until Andrew Inan send a card to this teenager band. when they receive the card they just could not believe it, the wanted to be managed by this guy Andrew and told them they will be stars, if they worked hard and develop new songs the people like, so their first real concert came. The band could not believe it and without thinking twice they accept the deal and got ready to give their best, the hope grew so big they believed the could be stars one day, even though it was way too early to think in that. 
    "They knew there will be risks in deals that are so big, but they did not even think in decline this offer". I liked a lot this quote because it give a message, that is that opportunities can not be rejected because of fear to fall, we have to accept the opportunistic and take the risk. "they just could not stop their amazement, their hopes tell them they could be rick stars one day, but the knew they will have to work hard to accomplish that dream". I like this quote because it trell us that if there is a dream we want to make we have to work hard for it.



I am enjoying this book more, even though I get distracted some times while reading it but I think the book it's getting to its climax and that is the reason why it is getting better. also as always this book is teaching me a lot of things like the lessons I putted on the quotes. For me the part I am enjoying the most is the part when this band teaches me things because I feel that reading this book is very useful. Other thing I like a lot of the history of U2 is the fact that they do became stars and how they did not even imagine it. I know they did work hard as the deal said, so work hard brings big prizes.
