U2 to play April date at stadium

The new year is already shaping up to be a noteworthy one for musical events, with two major concerts planned for April.

The legendary rock band U2 will play Aloha Stadium on April 8, with a second concert on the 9th in the event of a sell-out, sources say. It will be the band's first Hawaii appearance in two decades.

U2 was the second biggest concert act of last year; the Hawaii concerts would follow the band's spring tour of Australia.

A week ahead of U2 will be an April Fools' Day music festival in Diamond Head Crater -- the first in nearly three decades -- with a bill that will include the Steve Miller Band.

Expect a day's worth of musical acts, although the Miller Band -- which actually performed at a Crater Festival of yore -- is the only group confirmed so far.

Ticket information on the two concerts is not yet available.

The big acts of '06 are U2 and The Steve Miller Band.

Abracadabra!

Seems appropriate, since Bono's mantra seems to be, "I wanna reach out and grab ya!"
