U2 Secret GIG in Chicago - March 10th

[Bonogirl777]

They just cut off the song.

 

[lauramullen]

I'd rather here the questions and answers then the song

 

[u2mad25]

I'm confused, does everyone heat an interview AND the music? Oh wait, now just music?

I still hear both tho the interview is fainter now - wait, now the song ended!!! LOL omg this is horrific!

 

[lauramullen]

OMG this is so bad

 

[solemole]

I think they're playing the music in the room... not directly to the feed...

 

[Lila64]

Oh, Lila, did you hear that DG is going to the Boston show tomorrow??? A good friend of mine and her brother both won tickets too!

DG = ? (forgive me, I'm sleep deprived)
daygloeyes?

 

[uppitycrip]

the sound is indeed sub par. bono choosing bullet with butterfly wings. sounds like bono and the boys are getting sloppy promoting 3 concerts on the radio then do it as sloppy interviews- christ i can hear shirley talking over the sp tune.... oh, i guess that is the way it is supposed to be...uggh.

 

[dan_smee]

OOOOOH, illusion to Songs of Ascent from Bono!!!

elaborate!!!

[kassandra]

Jeez

 

[GraceRyan]

Hmm...it's like college radio days!

 

[alison0313]

The toronto station sounds like they are staying with the Q&A but they are playing MOS over it

 

[Dragonfave]

This is such a disorganized event. I love it.

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

How long is this mess?

 

[lauramullen]

That is how it sounds on Philly radio too

It's unbelievably amateurish - like a college radio station thing...as someone said, for U2 (or really any band tbh), really unacceptable. Heads should roll...

 

[Diane L]

elaborate!!!

Bono said something about hearing music from them next year that is not rock.
Maybe someone else has a more exact quote. Axver?

 

[Achtung_CJ]

OK, so tonight's broadcast is being handled really terribly. Also this woman is a terrible interviewer imo.

Never heard of the band that Adam suggested but I just downloaded the song he picked, I love it.

The station I'm listening to is now playing Summer Rain

 

[promenade]

The quality of the sound on this show is an embarrassment for a band of U2's stature.

Agreed, Diane L!! Eeek!

 

[bonocomet]

What did the audience girl ask for when SM said DENIED, next...

 

[uppitycrip]

...and another commercial...

 

[kassandra]

How long is this mess?

Over at 10

 

[Bonogirl777]

How long is this mess?

Until 10:00 Eastern Time, I think.

 

[lauramullen]

Bono said something about hearing music from them next year that is not rock.

He said it not very rock and roll

 

[Axver]

Indeed I do!

He managed to lead this into a discussion of the band's next album, describing melancholy tendencies as not being exactly rock and roll, but that U2 "have a gentle, more reflective side that you'll hear about next year".

Just keep up with my article, folks: U2 3 Nights Live: Second Night - U2gigs.com

 

[kakvox]

why, for God's sake, is shirley manson hosting this. She is utterly annoying.

 

[markpregen]

What did the audience girl ask for when SM said DENIED, next...

She said she was having a baby with the middle name Bono, and she wanted to know if she could get a picture for the baby's room

 

[Diane L]

PROMENADE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I should be packing to move in less than 48 hours, the apt. is a shambles, and I'm posting on Interference and listening to WBCN's feed instead!!!

 

[ladywithspinninghead]

People are going to turn this off. Great marketing boys!

 

[alison0313]

What did the audience girl ask for when SM said DENIED, next...

She was pregnant and giving the baby the middle name Bono, and she wanted something signed
