When does this start?

you are what you is
their best televised performance everHope so. Their last appearence on Wossy's show was superb
and I don't think U2 will be playing a once rehearsed cover on the Live Lounge at this point of their career
unless they're in a really, really goofy mood

U2 at BBC!
U2 are coming to the BBC!
U2 will be special guests at BBC Radio on Friday 27 February when listeners can enjoy access to one of the world's greatest rock bands - including a special Live Lounge session on BBC Radio 1.
The band will be performing three tracks for a Radio 1 Live Lounge session in Jo Whiley's daytime show from 10am.
Later that day on BBC Radio 2, Chris Evans will play host to U2 on his drivetime show at 5pm, interviewing all four members of U2 about the secrets of their success, from their formation in Dublin in 1976, to nine number one albums in the UK and 22 Grammy Awards.
A number of lucky Radio 1 listeners will be able to watch the band live at the BBC Radio Theatre - find out how to by listening to Jo's show from Monday 23 February.
U2's Live Lounge session coincides with Jo Whiley's first week back at Radio 1 after five months maternity leave. Jo says: "Time has flown and I'm very excited about getting back to my show and being reunited with my radio family - it's always a bit nerve-racking going back after having a baby but having U2, one of the world's biggest bands, playing in the Live Lounge and debuting new songs from their very fine latest album is especially thrilling."
Chris Evans says: "When it comes to rock n roll it doesn't get any bigger than U2, and when the biggest are getting better, backed up by the sheer brilliance of their new album, it will only be a pure joy to have them as part of our little radio show for one night only."

Outside in the Car Park for TOTP I was there for that as well great night!
Can't wait for the Chris Evans stuff...they did a fantastic interview with him on Virgin radio back in the ATYCLB days. Funniest stuff was when they had a guitar in the studio and were trying to guess songs from the first couple of chords..not U2 songs but just anything. Top stuff. And who can forget the 'Grand Madness' from PoP and the TFI in Dublin special.
MooMoo!

Dont forget if you have Sky you can set your VCR/DVD to record them.
I had to do that with a Jo Whiley show when I was stuck in school.
