U2 wished Bob Dylan a happy 70th birthday during their 360° tour show in Salt Lake City last night (May 24).

The band performed a rare rendition of 'Love Rescue Me', a track Dylan co-wrote for their 1988 album 'Rattle And Hum' at the Rice-Eccles Stadium. Bono then wished the folk legend many happy returns with the help of the crowd.
