Clayton expressed pride in the Music Generation initiative, noting it began as "a small idea that grew and grew" and now provides 115,000 music lessons a week. He emphasized that music changed the band's lives and the importance of giving others that opportunity regardless of career prospects.
“Music changed our lives, and for other people to have the opportunity to do that, no matter whether they can make a living out of it, is something we're very proud of.”

50 years ago today, four teenagers came together in Dublin and began a journey none of them could have imagined. It started in 1977, at Mount Temple Comprehensive School where U2 formed their band. Today, the lads came back to where it all started. I have seen U2 in concert so many times.
