Bono is going for the ultimate connection….7 billion people. The world hasn’t seen a connection of this magnitude since Caligula’s last Roman orgy. Bono & Facebook guru, Mark Zuckerberg are hatching some plot & scheming some scheme to get the entire world to simultaneously zone out and waste more time, by getting the entire planet […]
Read MoreU2’s Scandinavian Showdown!
Sweden coming in hot, this week! By now, you’ve heard about the “Security breach” that sent Swedes running back into their Stockholms, earlier this week at the U2 concert that had to be rescheduled.

Read MoreU2: One 4 the Books!
Cedarwood: A fairytale of Innocence, have you seen this yet? Two authors, who were probably inspired by U2’s ability to morph their way into the world’s Ipod, are set to morph their way into libraries around the world this week with this children’s book, sporting young U2 characters. This “stories for boys” and girl’s is […]
Read MoreU2’s Ticket Pecking Order!
Talk about payback! U2 just kicked the collective world in the blarney stones for a little racism thrown at their ancestors, way back in the mid 1840’s, 50’s, 60’s….. and, well, you get the point. Bono and the boys took the “Irish, need not apply” sign and just stuck it in the moment that you […]
Read MoreDublin, Here I Come…Maybe.
The following is a paraphrased conversation that I had with my wife about U2 in Ireland. Me: Um……honey? U2 is announcing Dublin dates today. My wife: Really, how exciting???

Read MoreOnly Love Can Leave A Mark!
It is said that a picture is worth a thousand words. If so, how many words is a U2 tattoo worth, uno, dos, tres, catorce? If you’re like me, you look at most tattoos and say to yourself, “WTF were you thinking?” Most tattooed bodies are more toilet wall than canvas, if you know what […]
Read MoreInto the Heart of My Child!
To quote the Red Rocker, Sammy Hagar: “What is understood, does not need to be discussed!” Therefore, I will save you from reading another blog about how U2 loves playing Boston, best. My tribe rocked “The Gahhhhden” in Boston #1 and Boston #2 like it’s never been rocked before, but for me, tonight is going […]
