U2 Secret GIG in Chicago - March 10th

[lauramullen]

They are probably going to cut it off

 

[solemole]

The last time I heard this song, was in the movie theaters watching the Watchmen... couple nights ago... :shudder:

 

[lauramullen]

Well that kind of sucked

 

[u2mad25]

Well that will go down as one of the more...interesting broadcasts! Nice work all involved!!!

 

[kassandra]

I would have loved to hear the interviews

 

[Diane L]

Well, that's it!

I hope everyone who goes to Boston tomorrow has a fantastic time!!!

The BCN DJ is trashing the problems with the broadcast!!!

 

[lauramullen]

Remind me to send positive comments about the audio

 

[promenade]

oh my.
good night!

 

[Achtung_CJ]

Aaaaand it's over...
That was...special.

 

[kellyahern]

If Shirely wasn't drunk before this, I bet you she will be soon.

 

[Bonogirl777]

Going to listen to Jeff Buckley's version now.
RIP


Ok, I'll be frank. That broadcast SUCKED.

 

[GraceRyan]

Ah, it was at the Metro....

Let's hope U2 radio is a little tighter tomorrow

 

[Ingrid]

It's over...now the real partying can begin! Good times, Chicago!

 

[Lila64]

Does anyone know what time the broadcast from Boston airs tomorrow?

LOL kelly!

 

[u2mad25]

Does anyone know what time the broadcast from Boston airs tomorrow?

Same time 9pm EST

 

[mtnfox]

Pretty lousy compared to last night anyway. Good night.

 

[kellyahern]

Is anyone listening to the WXRT stream? The DJ just had a nice slam on the production quality of the show

 

[alison0313]

That sucked. I got The Airborne Toxic Event mp3 out of it though. The rest someone pull the plug on FM radio

 

[lauramullen]

9pm eastern time

 

[sue4u2]

Shoot, was hoping my station would play something U2 when it was over. They went with something.. else??

What's the concept for tomorrow night?

 

[Axver]

Thank god that's over.

 

[kakvox]

WXRT just said it wasn't their broadcast. Probably done by The Metro, inexperienced, perhaps, in live broadcasts?

 

[lauramullen]

WMMR in Philly apologized for it too

 

[u2mad25]

Is anyone listening to the WXRT stream? The DJ just had a nice slam on the production quality of the show

Yea in NY the DJ said that Shirley's mic was on and 'let's hope she says something interesting at least' LOL

 

[bonocomet]

Bono to Shirley before the break and after she apologized for the technical mess.

He was just complimenting Shirley (translation, helping her out of a jam) because they realized this broadcast is coming off technically challenging!

Thanks guys.

 

[solemole]

at least the could have gotten rid of the guest audience

 

[Bonogirl777]

No one apologized here, I don't think. They just went straight to playing Led Zepp. Probably wanted to do something other than that crappy production.

 

[Lila64]

I turned it off briefly after it was over. Had to check something on YouTube, so don't know if 93XRT had offered any apologies. Now playing: Electric Co. 2 3 4!

 

[lauramullen]

They were just playing EBTTRT
