'The U2 concerts are categorically not fundraisers for any politician. They are rock concerts for U2 fans,' a statement from the group's publicist said.
Senator Clinton has 'invited' 18 people to join her on October 19 in a luxury suite at Washington's MCI Center to see U2 play during their sold-out Vertigo tour, as long as they contribute 2,500 dollars to the Democratic Party.
Luxury suites at the center cost 7,000 dollars and offer a close-up view of the stage.
'We do a meet-and-greet with the senator, and then go in and listen to music,' said Ann Lewis, the former first lady's spokeswoman.
Pennsylvania Republican Senator Rick Santorum is holding a 1,000-dollar-a-head fundraiser at U2's show in Philadelphia this weekend."
