"U2 front man Bono (R) performs with The Edge (L) and Adam Clayton (C) during a video shoot for their song 'All Because of You,' on the back of a flatbed truck in New York, November 22, 2004 as the band made a round of appearances in the city. The song is from the recent album 'How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb.' "

perhaps the video is in preparation for when they tour.... so they'll have a video ready to release without having to take time out.

I seem to remember something on a little known band called the rolling stones or something

Grr! They better broadcast it. Well, what did I tell you, Gorman - you're meant to be there with your team of cameramen broadcasting the entire U2 event for the whole world to see! Stop slacking off on us now!
I sure wish I did!

I'm hearing U2's free Brooklyn concert has been moved to 4:30. So you'll have to tell your boss your "doctor's appointment" took longer than expected.
The rockers are now driving around midtown on a flatbed truck, presumably en route to DUMBO. Bono is singing "We are the band in your neighborhood, in your neighborhood, in your neighborhoooood" and mugging for cameras.
Here are some camerphone grabs from their Times Square pitstop around 1:30. Photos by Monica Lee/Stereogum.

She may have been one of the lucky ones that got merged to NYC when the threads were exploding.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Irish rockstar Bono brought traffic to a standstill at the heart of New York on Monday, blasting out songs from U2's latest album as the band cruised down Broadway on a flatbed truck.
Office workers on their lunch-breaks whipped out their camera phones to catch the surprise appearance by the band whose album "How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb" is released in Britain on Monday and in the United States on Tuesday.
"I can't believe it. I have to call my mom right now," said one tourist in a crowd of hundreds as Bono sang Christmas favorite "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" in Times Square.
The stunt was filmed for the video of the forthcoming single "All Because of You" and the band was due to make another free appearance in Brooklyn later in the day.
