Maybe we should start a thread about new and upcoming U2 interviews for TV, radio and in magazines. I'm sure we'll be seeing lots of these within the next couple of weeks. Let's keep them collected here so everyone can see when and where these interviews are taking place.

Bono will be interviewed on Jo Wiley's BBC 2 show tonight, starting at 8 p. m. GMT

And on the Kevin & Bean show on KROQ (L. A. station) starting at 7.50, that should be 3.50 GMT and 4.50 CET.

Good thread. I've always been interested in interviewing for U2. Does anyone have any tips to pass along? What kind of questions do they normally ask?

Interesting. Thanks for sharing.


The band is—rightly—proud of its latest work, yet the backlash didn’t go unnoticed. “It’s like everyone’s vomiting whatever their first impression is,” said Clayton at one point, bemused rather than self-pitying.

Small correction - right now 7:50 AM Pacific would be 14:50GMT - but it is still 15:50 in the UK (currently on BST) and 16:50 CET. The BBC thing would be 8pm (20:00) BST.

Looks like Bono is also doing an interview with SWR3 radio in Germany but I didn't see when it is.

AM640 Exclusive Interview With U2 Today | Talk Radio AM640
When U2 woke up last Tuesday morning, I doubt they expected the backlash of hate and criticism they been receiving daily for the past week, over their free iTunes album “Songs of Innocence.”

It just so happens that Alan Cross from our brother station 102.1 the edge has secured an exclusive interview with U2 today at 2:30pm.

Now, this is a huge deal considering all of the controversy over the last week, thanks to said forced, free iTunes album “Songs of Innocence.” This will be the first time U2 comments on the controversy and it very well may be the only Canadian, perhaps even the only North American interview they do. Alan Cross will join Jeff Mcarthur on AM640 at 3:30pm this afternoon with highlights from his U2 interview.
 
Bono keeps dropping subtle hints about a next album. Something about Elvis being on the cover of it in one of the Time videos.
 
You'd imagine in these interviews coming up that he will get asked about SOE a fair bit? Surely he will expect this and would not have even mentioned its existence otherwise if it wasn't close to being ready to go. Given past experience over SOA and all that.

Thanks, damn migraine today :(

Thanks for all the updates, interesting reads.



The one about the SWR interview: Sadly, they don't say when it's actually going to air, but readers/listeners can send questions in to ask Bono.
 
Yeah I was surprised to finally hear a new song on KROQ then I remembered Bono was appearing on Kevin and Bean this morning. I was only able to catch a few minutes of the phone interview.
 
KROQ player not working for me, sadly - trying to download the Radio.com app or get around it somehow! (UK)
 
Short interview but some good tidbits. One thing he said that I found interesting: "We're coming your way next year. Or maybe before that if we figure a few things out."

:hmm:


Provably means a few promo shows etc?
