Bono and the Edge played a bit of LED ZEPPELIN's "Stairway to Heaven" as part of a televised broadcast featuring Irish musicians this past weekend.

The U2 duo took part in Songs From an Empty Room, a fundraiser for crew members who haven't been able to work due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition to appearing on the show, the singer and guitarist helped by donating more than $230,000 to Minding Creative Minds and the Association of Irish Stage Technicians Hardship Fund, the beneficiaries of the event.
 
As Bono explains in the video of the performance, he and his longtime bandmate chose the classic song as a tribute to their roadies, who often play "Stairway to Heaven" as they're setting up U2's equipment.
