U2 at 60th Festival de Cannes

"After we found out through Larry the unfortunate fact that he won't be able to play, we were in a quandary - can we pull the plug on it now, having committed? If so, what are the implications ...? What are the implications not just to this incredible venue and the people that have trusted us with this fantastic opportunity to open it, but also to our reputation? You know, we care about these things." - The Edge on Larry missing Vegas, February 2023
