Read MoreWhy U2? #43 – Beating the Odds
I’ve been thinking a lot recently about all the things that have happened over the years, all the reasons for there to never have been a U2, or for the band to no longer continue. To start with, when the band initially formed none of the guys really knew how to play their instruments.
Read MoreU2 SetList Turned Upside Down
So what if I like to sometimes stir the U2 pot? Spice things up by turning up the heat, and watch things boil, spilling over the brim. I did such a thing this past week on Twitter and F.B. What I am about to tell you is nothing new or something that hasn’t been discussed amongst U2 […]
Read MoreAnother Time, Another U2 Request
I’m late to the party on the #U2Request hashtag, but for good reason. When it first started showing up on Twitter, the tour hadn’t even been announced yet and we had more pressing things to worry about (like Bono’s broken bones) – so I thought, why bother? But now that he’s walking around Dublin like […]
Read MoreIris VS. Sometimes: Who Ya Got?
My U2 buddy Jim started a Face Book war this past Monday with his claim that U2’s Sometimes You Can’t Make it on Your Own, Bono’s ode to his father, is “More personal” than Iris, Bono’s ode to his mother. Like all U2 songs, you have to delve deeper and go beyond just the lyrics that […]
Read MoreWhy U2? #42 – Love
In the debate about who the greatest band of all time is, one widely-held opinion (other than U2, which we all know to be the correct answer to that question ;P) is that The Beatles belong at the top of the rock n roll heap.
Read MoreU2 Is A Rock Band, Right?
Am I speaking Swahili? Most question whether I can speak English, but have I not been clear. There is no way….underline NO WAY that U2 is going to do an entire acoustic concert. Bono can run his usual wishy, washy, vague “Different show each night” mumbo jumbo mouth all he wants. IT AIN’T HAPPENING. Not […]
Read MoreU2 On Mandela And The Song “Ordinary Love”
The Hollywood Reporter has a story up which chronicles U2’s involvement with Mandela and South Africa since the early days. The Hollywood Reporter posted an exclusive video of a candid conversation with the band in New York. “At a very early stage, we realized that there was more to music than just rocking out and […]
Read MoreNo Opening Acts on the Horizon?
(Editors note: On May 11th 2015, Live Nation confirmed that there will NOT be an opening act for the U2 Innocence + Experience tour.) A few U2 tour rumors have been floating around over the past week, the most recent of which is the notion that there may not be an opening act this time around. Because […]
Read MoreU2101: Numb
After the excitement of last week’s tour announcement and the accompanying ticket sales, not too much went on with our boys this week, so I thought it would be a good time to continue my U2101 series.
