POP/ROCK - Sept. 28, 1987

U2’s singer, Bono Hewson, told his Philadelphia audience Friday night that he wouldn’t be able to play guitar due to a shoulder injury. Instead, he brought out someone who could--Bruce Springsteen. The Boss jammed with the Irish band on Ben E. King’s classic “Stand By Me,” but waved away the audience’s full-throated demands for more. U2 forged on without him for three more tunes.
