U2 are to play a week-long residency on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.

The Irish singers have signed up to spend five nights performing on the chat show from November 17, Jimmy revealed on Monday, November 3.

He explained: "U2 is coming back Monday, November 17, for an entire week."

It follows news that Metallica will perform their own five-night stint on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, and weeks after Foo Fighters were welcomed for their own week-long residency on David Letterman's Late Show.

The last time U2 appeared on Jimmy's programme, The Edge insisted that they were a long way off completing a new body of work.

"We're in the studio still. We really want the songs to be right. [It's about] the period of music, in our lives and history, when we really came into being, turned on by music, the seeds that made us want to be in a band."
