Not sure if this interview was posted and we've probably all heard these talking points before...but wanted to share.

Don't remember this one (got it from atu2), it's from a Mexican interview, Bono and Larry are asked which will be the opening and closing songs for the tour.

Happy Bono mentioned that Invisible would be a great opener, as I think it would be the perfect opener. However, Song for Someone as a closer? I can't imagine that, for now.

the "someone" is the audience

Here's a new interview with U2 from the Red Carpet at the Bambi gala in Berlin, it's quite nice:

Invisible or Miracle would seem obvious as an opener. SFS closing ? Wouldn't mind it if they don't intend to play Troubles in that spot.

Nice interview, and it's also nice that people recognise "Songs Of Innocence" as a good album.

I just skimmed this as I'm off to class, but did the "author" mention that Sonic Highways' entire premise is very reminiscent of U2's Rattle and Hum? cough cough

An in article bolded line - U2 Crush Rock n Roll's Rebel Spirit

Then the Foo's bolded line - Foos make rock a spectacle again

These likely sum up how the rest of this "article" will read.

Sigh...

I read the whole thing yesterday. To be fair, the article was ok, and did not take sides really. Said they both went about it different ways, and neither is really better.

The writer did say the Foo's album was just so-so.

The one thing that bothers me is that he states that the Foo's release is "all about the music". Where to me, U2's release was really all about the music. I mean how much more all about the music can you be than to give it to 500 million people for free???

Anyway, don't want to start another month long argument about the release method.

We are biased on this website so of course we know that SOI is all about the music.
