CANNES, France (Reuters) – U2 lead singer Bono has undergone emergency
surgery on his back in aMunich hospital after being injured while preparing
for the next leg of the band's world tour, a spokesperson said Friday.

The 50-year-old from Ireland had been preparing for the North American leg
of the "360 Degree" world tour which is due to kick off in Salt Lake City on
June 3.

"Bono has today undergone emergency back
surgery<http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20100521/music_nm/us_bono_surgery>
for
an injury sustained during tour preparation training," his spokesperson
said.

"He was admitted to a specialist neuro surgery unit in a Munich hospital.

"Bono will spend the next few days there, before returning home to
recuperate. Once his condition has been assessed further, a statement will
be made regarding the impact on forthcoming tour
dates<http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20100521/music_nm/us_bono_surgery>
."

After North America, the tour was scheduled to travel to Turin in Italy on
August 6. It was not immediately clear how badly the injury would disrupt
the group's tour.

The tour earned around $109 million in 2009, according to music journal
Billboard <http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20100521/music_nm/us_bono_surgery>,
making it the world's most lucrative, and the publication also predicted it
would end up being the highest-grossing tour in history.

By some measures the band, with hits like "Sunday Bloody
Sunday<http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20100521/music_nm/us_bono_surgery>"
and "Where the Streets Have No Name," is the world's most successful. They
have sold more than 150 million records, according to unofficial estimates.
