Bono and the biggest rock show of all time
Bono belting out a song at the U2 360 show in Pasadena, Calif., on Sunday, October 25, 2009. Called the biggest rock show of all time--at least as measured by the size of the tour's infrastructure and cost--at least 96,000 people watched the Sunday night show live and in person. But millions more watched it live on YouTube, and some said the event was the largest live-streamed event of all time.

The concert featured an expanding LED video screen, a 360-degree stage, lasers and much more. By all accounts, it was the largest event ever held at the Rose Bowl.
