U2's Bono, Edge to perform at Monk Institute fete
By Richard Tafoya
October 17, 2008

U2's Bono and The Edge have been added to the announced performer's
lineup for the annual Thelonius Monk Institute of Jazz event at the
Kodak Theatre in Los Angeles, on Oct. 26.

The duo will take the stage as part of a concert lineup honoring B.B.
King, to whom they will also present the organization's Founder's
Award, according to a Monk Institute spokesperson. The pairing sets
the stage for a possible re-creation of U2's performance debut with
King in November of 1987, where they unveiled the U2-penned song "When
Love Comes To Town," captured for the band's 1988 film "Rattle and
Hum." The song has been a staple at King concerts since then.

The event's other honoree, Microsoft co-Founder Paul G. Allen, will be
presented with the 2008 Herbie Hancock Humanitarian Award. In 2007,
the Monk Institute inaugurated the Hancock award with an all-star
event honoring Hancock and featuring Sting, Joni Mitchell, Jamie Foxx,
Chris Botti and others, also at the Kodak.

This year's Monk event, showcasing performances by both King and
Hancock, is titled the "Two American Classics Gala Concert" and will
also feature jazz and blues mainstays Terence Blanchard, Terri Lynne
Carrington, Robert Cray, Keb' Mo', Wayne Shorter, Cassandra Wilson and
others. The show is a benefit for public school music education
programs in Los Angeles, New Orleans and the Mississippi Delta.

King recently turned 83 and rolled out an aggressive tour schedule
that will keep him on the road through the end of the year in support
of his latest release, "One Kind Favor," which hit stores in August.
 
Where did that info come from by the way. It would be way cool if they did perform with BB, but it doesn't actually say they will. Either way tho, still should be good!
 
Umm...you guys might want to check out the "Where The Album Has No Name" thread...Bono and Edge were in Half Moon Bay a coastal town about 20 minutes south of San Francisco last night for a private party..there are pics
