Springsteen, U2 Celebrate Barack Obama's Inauguration

Bruce Springsteen and U2 were among those who played a show at Washington, D.C.'s Lincoln Memorial on Sunday in celebration of U.S. president-elect Barack Obama's inauguration.

Obama takes office on Tuesday and his inauguration will be celebrated at a number of concerts (they're expensive!) throughout D.C. this week.

Interestingly enough, Monday is also Martin Luther King, Jr. Day in the United States, so it's doubly appropriate that U2 played "Pride (In The Name Of Love)," which is about King.

In the meantime, here's some video of Sunday's show.

U2 does "Pride (In The Name Of Love)" and "City Of Blinding Lights":
