Alright guys, no joke, just got this text - Bono bailed.
Through a few industry connections, I'd caught wind that a contract was signed for Bono to perform The Best Thing with Kygo tonight at the Hollywood Bowl. I let the crew know about this roughly 2 weeks or so ago and shared a few teasers here to amp up suspicion / hype / etc. I checked with my source before I posted, and he confirmed that everything was still on.
Well, I know a guy working the show tonight, and rehearsals and the backstage have been prepared. Bono is not on site, and through him asking around a little bit, the contract was broken and the original agreement won't be honored. He just snagged a copy of the setlist for tonight (yes, DJs still use setlists), and The Best Thing does not appear on it.
There will, however, be another special guest at the show tonight to perform a different Kygo song, in lieu of Bono. He's confirmed to be there, has rehearsed, has a dressing room, etc....but it won't be our Bono.
I want to let you guys know that I've been a faithful member of this website for almost a decade and that I would never intentionally spread misinformation - that's why I'm writing this post to you to unveil a bit (that could probably get me in a considerable amount of trouble if it got traced back to me), because I take my reputation seriously and I want to be trustworthy. I stand by the fact that everything I threw into the rumor mill, at the time it was stated, was true.
Apologies for hyping everything up, but perhaps take this to mean everything is much closer than we are anticipating.
If you need further confirmation that I'm not totally pulling your legs, check out what happens tonight at Kygo's show - I hear it's supposed to be hot...hot just like an oven. (Someone around here should be smart enough to put that together)

This is heaping piles of bullshit.
You'd be wrongI'm pretty sure no one here actually expected that Kygo appearance to happen.

Interesting. Looks finished but doesn't look to have gone anywhere.
They did... and then went to the studio for several times. I wonder how much material from the road will survive... it's quite clear the band is fearing failures. They could have had released far more no-album tracks as ' Invisible' or 'Ordinary Love'. I would have loved a single release for 'Mercy'..... 'North Star'.... 'Boy falls from the sky'.....

But I do think EPs would be a great format for U2 at this phase.
Nope. Wether it's 3, 5 or 11 songs or whatever they'd still end up in the same cess pit of uncertainty that we've become used to.
I'm pretty self assured that this story was a steaming pile of crapIf I'm not mistaken about who he is, then he is a well known member of the fan community and doesn't need to make up a rumour to get attention. I find some of you here a bit too quick and self-assured in calling others liars...
Regarding the app: wasn't there something similar at some point in the past? In any case I don't think this is what's holding back the release of SOE.
No, he's at a Hollywood ATM machine.

Exactly. It seems they can't even figure out what to do with ONE song (The Best Thing) so an EP wouldn't be any different
