From the Arctic Circle to Zagreb, from Dublin to the Eiffel Tower, you’ve been emailing Edge photos of yourselves – wearing the Aung San Suu Kyi mask in strange and unusual places.
Check out the ones he’s selected so far in our ASSK MASK GALLERY. And keep sending them in – Edge is selecting new shots every week. If you’ve been to the show you know what it’s all about, if not, here’s the lowdown.
‘It’s one of those moments in the show which become an emotional highpoint…’ Edge talked to us about ‘Walk On’ and Aung San Suu Kyi when she received the Amnesty International Ambassador of Conscience award earlier this year.
Download your own mask here.
Send us a photo wearing it in a strange or unusual location – and email it in to us at this address asskmask@u2.com
(Include your name, location and a couple of lines about where you took it.)

Mysterious Ways in Toronto
The band mixed up the set for the second night in Toronto. ‘Now that sounds like appreciation,’ said Bono, at the beginning of the show, and it really did.
Same size of audience here for the second show in Toronto, but they seemed to make double the noise – never more than when Edge joined the vocal for Stuck in a Moment. But the stand-out moment had to be the arrival on stage of a young boy during Unforgettable Fire who lapped the stage with Bono and then got to wear his shades.
Best view of the show tonight? The sound might not have been so great but it must have been a pretty spectacular perspective for all those people going up and down in the CN Tower. Daniel Lanois, co-producer of ‘No Line’ and most influential Canadian in the U2 story was here – must have been great to see the way the new songs have made the transition from the studio to the stadium.

Alma Catel was the star of Bill Carter’s award-winning 1995 documentary Miss Sarajevo. When the band returned to the region, for the show in Zagreb last month, we tracked down Alma to see how life has changed for her… and for this part of Europe.
In Part 1 Alma travels to the show and recalls Sarajevo during the siege.
In Part 2 we find Alma picking up her tickets, getting very nervous, reminiscing on U2’s 1997 Sarajevo PopMart show… and, after all this time, meeting the band again. The show, she tells Bono, ‘was almost as good as Sarajevo… but not quite.’
