U2 in Lisbon : Music and liberty

U2 awarded top Portuguese honour

The President of Portugal Jorge Sampaio presented, yesterday, the Order of Liberty to the veteran four-piece in recognition of their humanitarian efforts, before their concert in Lisbon. "Over the past 25 years the band has allied its public exposure to the defence of human rights" was the motive for this condecoration.
