19/10/1980 Lyceum Ballroom, London, UK. Boy Tour Leg 1 September 6th- 3rd December, (57 concerts)
The U2 “Boy” Tour was the band’s first big concert tour, launched to promote their debut album *Boy*. Released in October 1980 in the UK and Ireland. It marked their first move onto the international stage. And helped them start building a fan base that would grow rapidly in the years ahead. Many of the venues U2 played were small club/pubs with a capacity of 200/300. This was ideal for them too show their raw power in an intimate setting. Making a real connection with their fans. This leg of the tour included their first European shows, although they still hadn’t performed in Scotland or Wales.
