(Mods: I scanned every forum and this looked most appropriate -- but move if necessary) I have Googled, Ask.com-ed, U2 FAQ-ed, U2Tours'd and consulted the "U2 Live" book, but everything says "unknown" -- Does anybody have a venue for where the June 7, 1983 U2 concert was to have been held in...

Two topics of interest to U2 fans in this broadcast available online at the WNYC, New York Public Radio website. The main segment of interest discusses the band, its beliefs and its effect on society. The second segment is on Tom Verlaine of Television, an early influence on The Edge...

I was watching that early Tom Snyder/Tomorrow Show interview today on YouTube... and found myself totally mesmerized by that incredible smile Edge gives the host after joking about his name. Does anyone happen to have stills of that interview, particularly that part? Could someone take this...

I was just re-watching the Grammy portions I taped and wondered if one of the kind screencap experts in here would consider a request. When U2 were waiting sidestage as their names were announced as recipients of Best Rock Album, Adam and Larry in particular had the loveliest smiles on their...

Chalk one up in the stoopid column for me... I was transferring a bunch of photos & files to disks and I accidentally deleted all the "Postcards From The Edge" that appeared in Q Magazine. :( Would any of you kind souls repost or furnish a link to where I might find them? Thanks muchly.

While checking out a new website I was directed to by another post in this forum, I ran across a pretty humorous little home video. http://www.youtube.com/watch.php?v=BYdP24lGN78&search=u2 If you like cute kid videos check it out. If they make you gag, then just move along and don't say I...

1. Especially after viewing the new OOTS video I'm doubly curious... did anyone ever figure out exactly what he's muttering right before the do-do-dos? The theory at one point was "Here's your father" refering to his goddaughter Hollie's dad The Edge. But I still can't make it out even reading...

I know this has been lightly touched upon but my curiosity is really getting the better of me in regard to Adam's performances this year. Obviously there's been much discussion in regard to his physical appearance (yes, I do surf Pleba without apologies). But I am really interested in the new...

Confession: I am old enough to be some of you people's... erm.. aunt...yeah, that's it. Although I am an extremely COOL aunt. My regular listening includes Green Day, Franz Ferdinand, Killers, Interpol, and Arcade Fire, in addition to our boys. So cut me some slack as I am forced to ask the...

I don't pop into this corner of the forums often, but since I'm realizing that the VMAs are a total waste of my time tonight, I'm going to ask a long-intended question. I own a copy of Dunphy's Unforgettable Fire. Aside from the fact that it's not great literature, I also know that the band...

In one of the few Q Magazines I did not buy in the last six months, there was a big photo of Edge holding up his pick for album of the year, Franz Ferdinand. I've been listening to that CD most of the morning, and would love the combination of the two of them together. Did anyone scan it...

It's just a tiny bit at the beginning about our boys, and a bit of Bono shooting off the champagne at the end, but you can go here for a short video report: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/music/4349877.stm# Click on "See U2 perform at the ceremony on the right hand side. PopDaisy...

When I first heard Flower Child I had an immediate positive response but I wasn't sure why because it sounded so unlike a "U2 song." Then yesterday it struck me. It sounded like U2 doing Great Big Sea. Am I nuts or can anyone else easily hear Alan Doyle or Sean McCann singing this? And no...

I recall seeing scans of the first couple of Postcards From The Edge in Q Magazine, but I don't remember seeing the most recent one. Can someone help me out here? Loved the Winthrop reference. PopDaisy :edge: :heart:

Not sure if this is the correct forum, but this was just released: OSLO, Norway - Kenyan environmental activist Wangari Maathai won the Nobel Peace Prize on Friday for her work as leader of the Green Belt Movement, which has sought to empower women, improve the environment and fight corruption...

Despite the fact that I've told myself I'm not going to get that involved in here because my life is in total chaos and I don't have home online access, I'm failing miserably. (But somehow I think that's a good thing...) I'm not quite the young'un like many of you... let's just say that...

A favor please... "This is what you get when you mess with us..." "I've given all I can but it's not enough..." Heard these lyrics a few days ago on Virgin's ZooRadio. Tried to do a lyric search, but I don't think what I have is the title. Can anyone help? I really liked it, and not...

I was up till 11 last night watching this amazing DVD I got in the mail off half.com: ?From a Whisper to a Scream? ? it?s the history of Irish music since the ?50s. It was a music documentary aired on RTE Reasons to love this DVD: 1. Bono commentary 2. Edge commentary 3. Gavin commentary...

Hi, I'm a longtime PLEBA lurker who finally decided to emerge from the shadows and tall trees... I also POP into a few other forums now and then and have found great info there, particularly about lyrics. I also wanted to express appreciation for all the great photos that have been shared and...
