is it a call in show? if so, i'm calling and asking him why he was so fake when he posted here.

also, it would be nice to get a "new album" question.

 

[Marien]

Maybe it's because I'm very tired, but I can't see anything about it in your link, do you know the time?

And thanks for posting it!

I didn't want to start a new thread about this but last night I had a dream about U2 & the Edge. I was able to go over the setlist with Edge before the 3rd leg of the 360 show. We were at the stadium and he showed me the list. I know, pretty gay but for those who want to know here is what I remembered:

-Opener was ISHFWILF

-There were 3-4 new songs, some with funky names (Asian....??) and Kingdom was like the 6-7th song on the list.

-Breathe, UltraViolet, WOWY was the encore

-And thats all I remember

But I do remember there still being no POP songs. And I asked him why don't you guys play any POP songs, in return he gave me this "Ugh, Pop sucks face".

Pointless story but I know I can post it here on the blue crack forum!!

i would ask what he did with his zootv beanie cap as it was much more fashionable than what he is wearing now

 

[nielsgov]

Hopefully some news about the new album.

They just said on the radio that the interview was recorded yesterday at "Edge's house as Edge and Bono finished recording their parts for this fund raising single for Haiti". It will air on Dave Fanning's show between 2 and 4 pm, and will be available online later

 

[last unicorn]

Thanks for the info

Good to hear they're involved in a project for Haiti.

Also, I think they might talk about the Golden Globes that are held tomorrow night, U2 are nominated for "Winter". Don't know whether anyone from the band will be there.

fund raising single? hmm...must be a cover song.

 

[TheClash253]

it's about to be on, playing stand up comedy now

 

[last unicorn]

It's on. So funny because I had forgotten about the interview, then tuned in and in that very moment it started. They just played the Fly.

 

[Tyagu_Anaykus]

The Fly

 

[Pluspol]

Anyone taping?

 

[ramblin rose]

Oh God, press him more on the next album. I'm not feeling optimistic. At least we're going to hear this new song for Haiti relatively quickly.

Let's see what they come up with on a 24 hour song.

 

[last unicorn]

Interview over, Winter playing now.

 

[subnet]

they really tip toed around the new songs and album discussion.

 

[Tyagu_Anaykus]

Damn U2. Come on, if you can record a song in 24hours then, the album would take 1.5weeks to record!

Why's taking so long?

 

[subnet]

well, now you know, album delays are due to larry and adam

 

[last unicorn]

Well, they have actually just released an album and they've been on tour for most of the last year, plus there are some other projects as well. I don't think it's realistic to expect another album by U2 now.

 

[ramblin rose]

They could if they wanted to. As usual they just over think everything.

 

[super fly guy]

Just logged in,what was Edge saying about the new album?

 

[last unicorn]

They could if they wanted to. As usual they just over think everything.

They could indeed, but we know the game by now. Bono is the enthusiastic one who cannot wait to get it out, Larry and Adam are the cautious ones and Edge is somewhere in between. I'm sure we'll get a new album, but I want them to make a good and compact album, not something that sounds like leftovers from various sessions. I also don't want another Zooropa, I never listen to that album.

 

[Tyagu_Anaykus]

I love Zooropa, so i don't mind

 

[powerhour24]

Zooropa was amazing because it was the last time they just let go and let a concept click before picking it to pieces.

 

[mikal]

new album - he doesn't know what they're going to do yet.

new single for Haiti - a producer called them who was working with Jay-Z to do something for Haiti and they came up with a new a song and sent it to them in one day.

 

[Rachel D.]

they came up with a new a song and sent it to them in one day.

Hopefully it's better than that Oprah song. You know... "Uh-Mer-I-Kuh... Is beautifuuuuuuuull..."
