 Biography of U2's Larry Mullen
During the recording of Pop Larry suffered from severe back problems and was forced to take a back seat while he underwent surgery.
It is fitting that as the founder of the group he is still credited with being the backbone of the band.
He has said that it is the way Larry hits his bass drum that makes U2 a true rock 'n' roll band.

 Home / Artists / Artists: Drums / Larry Mullen
Larry has never liked to clutter U2’s songs with busy drumming – he’s always understood the value of drama-laden space.
With Larry starring in the video for the latest single Electrical Storm there’s no sign of the band slowing down yet.
They constantly worked to stretch the boundaries of stadium rock, creating their own unmistakable sound during the 1980s – the special marriage of rock and roll with technology.

 Larry Mullen, Jr. - Free Music Downloads, Videos, CDs, MP3s, Bio, Merchandise and Links
In 1995, the couple had a son, Aaron Elvis, named after Elvis Presley, a great influence on Mullen's musical career.
Mullen attended several schools, including Scoil Colmcille School of Music, Chatham Row and finally Mount Temple, where he posted a note about getting a band together.
U2's first album, Boy, was released in 1980, and has a sort of military sound, produced mostly by snare drums.

Although this use of technology began to infiltrate the band's music as early as 1984 ('Bad') and progressed with spectacular effect on 'God Part 2' (from Rattle and Hum), it was not until Achtung Baby and Zooropa that it became an integral part of their sonic make-up.
Does Larry think that there is a danger of the band's apparent obsession with unpredictability eventually compromising its music?
Growing up in the mid-seventies, Larry's staple musical diet consisted of glam-rock greats, like The Sweet, T-Rex, Roxy Music, Slade and Gary Glitter, whose two-drummer band fascinated the Dublin lad.

Larry was only 15 at the time and his Dad felt that school next morning was far more important than this recording session." Jackie Hayden, a judge at the Limerick talent contest which U2 won in 1978, recalls the band's first studio experience.
They were being pretty obnoxious, but Larry walks up to the biggest guy and says, "Listen," and the guy's like, "Yeah, what?" and Larry goes, "If you're looking for trouble, I'll find you some." Because Larry is all about back-up.

 Jim DeRogatis talks with U2's Larry Mullen Jr.
The argument against it, Larry, is that when I close my eyes and listen to "Achtung Baby," the images it creates in my head are infinitely richer than even the best videos the band has ever made.
If you make a mistake, it's OK. I listened to a CD of the last show, and there are a lot of fluffs, but it's OK. There was time when we were all striving for that perfection, and now it's, "It doesn't matter; it's the spirit of the show."
I had a long and wide-ranging conversation Monday with the man many consider the heart of U2 as the band made its way toward Chicago.

The 5.1 mix has a surprisingly broad soundstage, that is biased to the front hemisphere (as it should be).
When director Phil Joanou asks the band members on camera what this film is about from their perspective, they sort of smile and laugh mischievously, and give these answers:
The surround mix is a bit too directional for my taste given that this is music - much more so than you would normally get in a live performance - with Bono in the front-center, and The Edge and Larry Mullen, Jr.
