I've seen U2 live several times, the first was in 1981 supporting The Police (I did go to see U2.) The best was in 1987 at a 75,000 sold-out Murrayfield stadium on The Joshua Tree world tour - what a gig, I will never forget it. They were the biggest band in the world at the time. It was also the loudest gig I've ever attended, I remember news reports that it actually measured 2 on the Richter scale and could be heard several miles away - Bullet The Blue Sky was astonishing live.

Bysshe, I've got totally obsessed with One, it's entirely your fault. The lyrics are just wonderful, so true, so true, I'm gonna copy them here, for your enjoyment. :)

Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same
Will it make it easier on you now
You got someone to blame
You say...

One love
One life
When it's one need
In the night
One love
We get to share it
Leaves you baby if you
Don't care for it

Did I disappoint you
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without
Well it's...

Too late
Tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one, but we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other
One...

Have you come here for forgiveness
Have you come to raise the dead
Have you come here to play Jesus
To the lepers in your head

Did I ask too much
More than a lot
You gave me nothing
Now it's all I got
We're one
But we're not the same
Well we
Hurt each other
Then we do it again
You say
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law
You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what you got
When all you got is hurt

One love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should
One life
With each other
Sisters
Brothers
One life
But we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other

One...life

One

"One" (live) is on the radio right now :)

You'll never ever hear me dissing Bono or U2. They've had such an awesome career, they've been so influential, and their music is for the masses. So many great songs -I love In God's Country, Mysterious Ways, Bullet the blue sky, Sunday Bloody Sunday, All I want is you, I will follow, their version of Night and Day... too many to name. There is one song I can't remember the name of that I really like... When it comes to me, I'll let you know ;) I have always wanted to see them perform in Ireland. That'd be a dream come true.

Rock on, U2 (bysshe and dow) :guitar:

Ok so I have a silly little U2-related story to share. I was a freshman in college living in LA when it was announced on KROQ that U2 were filming a music video downtown. It was the "Where the Streets Have No Name" video. My friend and I hopped in her car and headed downtown. Traffic was horrendous as you can imagine. By the time we got there, filming had been shut down and everyone was being directed to get the hell outta downtown.

Needless to say we were bummed. I don't know what possessed me but I decided to tell my friends back home in NJ that I was actually there. :doh: Stupid. As fate would have it, when the video was released there happened to be a girl in the video for a split second that looked like me. News back home spread like wildfire that I was in the new U2 video. I felt like an idiot for having lied about being there. Slowly but surely I set the record straight as best I could. Regardless, on the seldom occasions that I visit my hometown, people STILL ask me about that.

I honestly have not embellished a story since ... well, at least not to that degree. ;)

Here's the youtube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GpVbLm4TN3g) link to the video (I'm sure you've all seen a thousand times). Youtube won't let me embed the video here. The "other me" is around 5:19.

I have an Adam story. This happened at the same show where Bono fell in front of me.

*snort*

We were on Adam's side of the stage. Since we had 2nd row seats, we decided to make signs to hold up for the boys. One of my signs asked, "Okay. . . who's not wearing any underwear tonight?" and it was inspired by something Bono said about not wearing knickers. On the flip side I wrote, And who's wearing women's underwear tonight (adam)?" because Adam had admitted that he enjoyed wearing women's underwear.

At one point during the show, Adam looked over in our direction. We screamed his name at the top of our lungs and he looked directly at us. As soon as we had his attention, I held up my sign. He squinted at it, read it and began to smile. As soon as I was sure that he was finished reading, I flipped the sign over. He squinted some more and then broke out into a huge beautiful grin, laughed, and walked away.

*sigh*

I love those boys. :D

I love how Bono is provoking Edge and Edge looks like he's going to kick Bono's ass.

Skip to 3:11.

"It's late and I'm tired, I've played this song fifty million times and I just want to finish this video. I swear if you don't stop screaming into my ear, so help me God, I'm going to bludgeon you to death with this guitar. . . bitch."

Bono should be glad he didn't do that to Larry.

There's this one bit in one of the Vertigo DVDs where Bono messes with one of Larry's cymbals and the look of UTTER DISGUST of Larry's face... oh it's so good.

Red Hill Mining Town was my fav U2 song for a long time. I had always wanted to see the video, I quite liked having it be my holy grail... Video is a trainwreck haha, I think I /facepalmed for 10 minutes straight after seeing it the first time.

Thinking about cutting Edge's clothes off and tying him up makes me randy.

Bono singing, "Gimme what I don't get," in Edge's ear makes me randy.

Bono caressing Edge's face makes me randy.

Hell, the entire video makes me randy.

Except for the feet. I love how he glances down like, "You've got to be kidding me," when the first foot approaches his face.

Bono being a slut:

And Edge giving him the business about it later:

http://www.u2arg.com/home/img/bonobaltimore_har05.jpg

Edge: "I saw you out whoring around with Liam."
Bono: "I swear to you, he means nothing to me."

http://image.com.com/mp3/images/genie_images/story/2006/u/u203_story.jpg

Bono: "I'm sorry. It won't happen again."
Edge: "Back the fuck off, bitch. I'm not talking to you right now. I'm working."

http://londonist.com/attachments/London_Dave/bono-edge.jpg

Bono: "Please?"
Edge: "I told you to back the fuck off, bitch!"

http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a372/lxluthor/U2/6.jpg

Bono: "I will lie prostrate at your feet in front of all of these fans if you will only forgive me."
Edge: "You're a dirty, filthy whore!"
Bono: "I am. Will you forgive me?"

http://mybuddieslive.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/u2.jpg

Edge: "Oh, all right, you big lug. You know I can't quit you."

It was a bit different at Wembley Stadium when I went. You could go where you wanted. We stood at the front for about 5 hours, watched PJ Harvey, then got massively dehydrated and had to retreat to the seats. It WAS my first ever gig though, so I was probably overwhelmed.

Bysshe, I've got totally obsessed with One, it's entirely your fault. The lyrics are just wonderful, so true, so true, I'm gonna copy them here, for your enjoyment. :)

Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same
Will it make it easier on you now
You got someone to blame
You say...

One love
One life
When it's one need
In the night
One love
We get to share it
Leaves you baby if you
Don't care for it

Did I disappoint you
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without
Well it's...

Too late
Tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one, but we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other
One...

Have you come here for forgiveness
Have you come to raise the dead
Have you come here to play Jesus
To the lepers in your head

Did I ask too much
More than a lot
You gave me nothing
Now it's all I got
We're one
But we're not the same
Well we
Hurt each other
Then we do it again
You say
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law
You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what you got
When all you got is hurt

One love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should
One life
With each other
Sisters
Brothers
One life
But we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other

One...life

One

Excuse me for being square here, but other than the other symbolic things going on here, do you think this song is about ecstacy? Meet me in the music? Is Bono a "dropper."

I wouldn't be surprised at anything Bono did. :D

PJ Harvey opened when I saw them in 01. I was quite excited have always wanted to see her live. Of course the people around me had no clue who she was but they all thought she was hot.

Thanks, Ms. Lemon. I heard this morning they are kicking off their North American leg in Chicago. :guitar: Soldier Field is a great place for a show. I am so there! It'll make a nice birthday pressie. :) I've never seen them and I MUST!

U2 is rumored to be coming into town today to play a private show at Smart Bar (Metro) tomorrow. :cool: I heard they will DJ, not 'perform'. I'd love to be there...I put my feelers out to a friend of a friend...*waits* :) I'll at least have XRT on.

From Metromix Chicago:

U2 is appearing somewhere in Chicago March 10.

Local promoters and the band's label, Interscope Records, are being very tight-lipped about the secret event, for which local radio stations have given away exclusive tickets to a small number of winners.

DJ Cara Carriveau of WTMX-FM 101.9, who awarded the station's last set of tickets this morning, says the band's appearance is a DJ set, not a performance, and that "you absolutely cannot get in" unless you've won tickets from a radio station.

That opinion may be a bit extreme -- there's always room for A-listers and pushy hangers-on at these sorts of publicity events -- but safe to say that tickets are tough to come by.

While no one will confirm the location, rumors have focused around Metro or its adjacent, DJ-focused dance club, Smart Bar. "There's definitely not anything happening in Smart Bar, and there's not any live performance that I'm aware of," according to Metro publicist Jenny Lizak, who could neither confirm nor deny the possibility of a DJ set at Metro. (The Tribune's Greg Kot also hints that you may see the band along Clark Street.)

WXRT 93.1 marketing director Katie Funkey confirms that the station will broadcast live at an undisclosed location, from 8-9 p.m. Tuesday, when U2 will spin their favorite records. No comment from Funkey when asked if the show would be held at Metro.

No word yet from LiveNation, who's promoting U2's upcoming stadium tour, hitting Soldier Field Sept. 12.

The Pixies opened for them the first time I saw them. The second time I saw them BAD II and Public Enemy opened. PE kicked major ass. The third time was Nelly Furtado and Institute opened for them the last time I saw them.

Apparently Glasvegas will be one of their support bands on this tour...I think it's a perfect match, and I'd love to see it. Haven't seen U2 live...yet.

Well according to U2.com 10,000 tickets per show will be priced at about $30, so that'd be ace.

U2uesday on WXRT was great. Even my dentist's office had it on. :)

They did play (DJ) their 2nd night of "U2 Three Nights Live" at Metro/Smart Bar tonight (onto Boston tomorrow) and I caught most of it. Shirley Manson is travelling with them & hosting the events. Some of the songs they picked to spin as faves/influences:

Larry: I Wanna be Sedated ("Being in U2 sometimes you need to be sedated!")
Bono: Brown Eyed Girl ("Hello to all the Chicago Irish girls!")
Adam: Sometime Around Midnight, Airborne Toxic Event
Edge: Bullet with Butterfly Wings, Smashing Pumpkins :guitar:
Larry: Rebellion, Arcade Fire
Bono: Hole of the Moon, Waterboys :sweet: I love this song!!
*He said the 3 shows that changed his life were The Clash 1978, Springsteen in London and the Waterboys*
Adam: Golden Skans, Klaxons
Bono: Hallelujah, Leonard Cohen

I may have missed 1 or 2 songs in the set but that's the jist. I think XRT is broadcasting their Boston set tomorrow too. They were taking audience questions over the intro of the songs :confused: and with the crowd noise, it was hard to hear...bad production, mic problems, etc...plus I had other distractions, kids, cats, husband...:rolleyes::D

U2's The Edge criticised for new line on the horizon

So much for planting trees. The guitarist has angered his Malibu neighbours with plans to turn a nearby mountain into a 20-storey blot on the landscape

Sean Michaels guardian.co.uk, Friday 20 March 2009 10.23 GMT

Bob Dylan is not the only rock star upsetting Malibu residents. U2's The Edge, aka David Evans, has infuriated neighbours with his plans to build five homes across 1,000 acres of prime real estate.

The guitarist bought two parcels of land, at Latigo Canyon and Serra Retreat, in November 2006. "Two years ago he pulled up outside my house and mentioned he was going to be my new neighbour," Jim Smith, a building contractor, told the LA Times. "He was friendly and charismatic. I was happy knowing he was buying the land, as I assumed he would be sensitive to the environment – though that's not the case."

Smith is angry over The Edge's plans for a nearby mountain, which he says will be excavated as part of residential development. He claims the original mountain will disappear, to be replaced with a 20-storey, man-made blot on the landscape.

The problem isn't just mountains turned into molehills, insists another neighbour, Scott Wilder. "I can presently see a view from my home, called the 'Queen's Necklace,'" Wilder said. "[It] shows areas of LA, from Santa Monica to LAX. The development will directly impede residents' existing views and impact the scenic drive through Latigo Canyon for the general public."

The Edge's neighbours' other complaints include the danger of water run-off, land erosion, and the eviction of a beloved bow and arrow league. "They evicted the archery club, which was an institution in Malibu," said Candace Brown, another resident. She and other neighbours have seen local wildlife, including deer and foxes, trapped in a newly dug trench "the size of three [American] football fields".

"When I expressed my concerns about the development, he told me he was sympathetic to my concerns," Smith said this week. "He's done nothing. He's not walking the walk of an environmentalist."
