When we saw the photos and videos today – from Bono meeting fans on the lineup to Larry’s fun soundcheck video in the early evening – we knew U2’s first night in Phoenix would be something special, and it definitely was. Unlike the first night in San Jose (yikes), there was some high energy and heart in […]

I’m saying it here and now, I believe night two in San Jose was better than night one – do we see a trend happening here? It almost makes me wish I was going to night two in LA instead of night one…okay, let’s not get carried away here. Phoenix is Friday and Saturday; in the meantime, […]

Night one in San Jose did not disappoint! Highlights included Bono joking about Edge’s fall again, and asking Adam how he feels about being a married man now. Adam’s response: “I feel like a natural woman.” The Periscope app helped fans all over the world tune in to watch the live stream again, but it seems the […]
Read MoreInnocence + Experience tour Vancouver Night 2
Did you think it was possible for night two to be even better than night one? I didn’t, but I was wrong! What made U2’s second night at Rogers Arena in Vancouver superior to the kick off night of the tour, in my opinion, were these moments: Miracle Drug – and as if this wasn’t enough… […]
Read MoreU2 kicks off the Innocence + Experience tour
There is no way I can do last night justice. You were all there, in some way, whether you were in Vancouver (and if you were, the rest of us hate you) or you were streaming live on Periscope, where the only person who was there that the rest of us love is named Derek […]

Like many of you, I […]
Read MoreU2 Tribute Band Interview: Hollywood U2’s Joe Hier
As I mentioned, I recently saw the great U2 tribute band Hollywood U2 again and was finally able to interview their incredible frontman, Joe Hier (AKA Hollywood Bono). Q: How did Hollywood U2 get started, and what’s your personal connection to U2? A: My connection to U2 is in my heart, and being really good […]
Read MoreU2 Tribute Band Review: Hollywood U2
I’d like to start a series of U2 tribute band reviews here on U2 Radio; the thing is, I’ve only seen one U2 tribute band: the amazing Hollywood U2. Let’s get the obvious pun out of the way: No, they’re not even better than the real thing (and after meeting frontman Joe Hier – yes, stage […]
Read MoreI Can See Those Fighter Planes
The latest U2 news this week is that the band is in Vancouver for rehearsals, as it was confirmed that U2 rented out the Coliseum venue for a full month for tour rehearsals. What’s not confirmed is whether the video of the Coliseum door that is circulating around social media, with grainy audio of “Volcano,” […]
Read More#U2Request Day: Are You Ready?
Well, are you? Because it’s here! Today’s the day when U2 fans around the world tweet the hell out of Guy Oseary (***update*** apparently, tagging Guy or anyone else is a clear violation of the rules and since I’m all about respecting the rules, scratch that part) in a concerted effort to get U2 to […]
