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 […]
Read MoreThe Troubles; On the threshold of a new U2 tour
In a little over 48 hours U2 will be coming out on stage in Vancouver to a throng of fans from all over the world. Many fans have traveled thousands of miles to take in the opening night of the Innocence + Experience tour. The run up to opening night hasn’t gone without its troubles, […]
Read MoreU2101 – Lucifer’s Hands
I really enjoyed all of the new songs that U2 premiered on the Summer 2010 leg of the 360 tour. Songs like “Glastonbury”, “North Star” and “Every Breaking Wave” really made those shows something special, as did my personal favorite of the songs that debuted at those shows, intro “Return of the Stingray Guitar”.

Read MoreReminder: U2 on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon tonight
TGiF, it’s the weekend, and it’s almost time to sit down for the U2 episode on the Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon (check your local listings for broadcast times). Since it was announced a week or so ago I’ve been looking forward to this U2 appearance because, to me, this is what the Invisible Superbowl […]
Read MoreYour U2 Age
Have you seen the “Guess my Age” craze that’s been burning down the internet the past couple of weeks? It’s accuracy is uncanny. After submitting an image of my adorable, loveable mug, it came back that I am either 57 years old or a very old looking 4th grader. I even plugged in a few […]
Read MoreU2101 – The Crystal Ballroom
I really didn’t know what to think of “The Crystal Ballroom” the first time I heard it. I think that of all the new songs (from Songs of Innocence) it’s probably the one that sounds most like what I expected when I heard that U2 were working with Danger Mouse.
Read MoreU2 Confessional is BACK!
You’ve been naughty these past few months, I know it, you know it and most importantly…HE knows it. No, not God….BONO. It’s time for you to cleanse your soul before the tour begins and what better way than to hop into the U2 Confessional. Yes, back by popular demand….not really, but it has been awhile, […]
