That explains why Howard Stern's radio page shared the link.....

U2 X Radio? X-Fm? Howard Stern?
So, who had "something baffling AND disappointing" in the sweepstake?

So, are they just re-doing the U2 themed Sirius XM station?

Elevation is a single from the album "All That You Can't Leave Behind"

Video has ended. Not sure that qualifies as an announcement of anything...

They've not honestly just done that to announce a U2 internet radio station have they?
So they decided to announce a US/Canada exclusive service in the middle of a live show in Japan? There must have been a lot of confused Japanese fans wondering why the start of Elevation turned into an advertisement for something they will never get to use.

Ack, even if it was the encore I wanted to continue watching.
Sooooo U2 Radio on Sirius XM?
Why all the hoopla for that?

That's cool, but not worth a concert video live announcement

Unless it’s like U2’s version of the Neil Young archives...I’m going back to bed

Yeah, that was the slight glimmer of hope I was holding out for.
Oh well, looks like they still don't know their fanbase, how social media works or even what the word "announce" means.
Stand down everyone.

Espeically considering its only avaliable in US/Canada (Unless I'm mistaken?)

Woefully bad. All that hype for nothing. Ridiculous.
They did a short term station about a year ago and it was terrific. So this is terrific news.
Just not news worthy of any sort of big hype or build up.
To be fair, they announced it on Facebook and a 1 am email. So perhaps the hype build up is, ya know, our fault... not there's

Kinda sucks the feed cut out just as Vertigo was about to take off. To be honest the whole thing seems a little anticlimactic. Damn this band is good at getting one's hopes up and then leaving them underwhelmed and confused.

There's not even anything on the Sirius page.
I could have got excited about something like this back in 1995, but they must be aware of the various home assistants and Digital media services that nearly everyone has access to and can, on demand, play an endless, non-interrupted mix of U2 music?

Why would they promote a North American only service internationally from the stage in Japan?

Muppets. The band and their management, that is.

And send emails to everyone worldwide? Bizzare.

You would think they would have followed up that stream with a proper press release.
Glad I didn’t get too excited, though that first minute with the graphics was pretty intriguing.

So what format does the U2 station take and are there exclusives, no ads etc? Just genuinely wondering what make the previous one terrific.
