Bono gets a Plus One, but Edge doesn't? No respect, I'm tellin' ya ...

 

[Val]

Probably Edge's guest to the left of him. If anyone finds it on TV , please give a shout out. I'd much rather see it on a bigger screen than my computer offers. Thanks!

Funny because Bono's guest is to his right, so whether Edge has a guest or not they still purposely placed him and Bono together.

Of course they did, so they can get a reaction shot from the two of them. I'm pretty sure that even in the Oscars and such the camera people know ahead of time who's won so that they are sure to get the shots.

Short video of Bono doing an interview with Fareed Zakaria on CNN. I think it's just an outtake of the interview he did a couple of months ago. I saw it on CNN, but it never surfaced online.

"The rumors have come true. U2 are shooting a video for a commercial announcing their new album on Super Bowl Sunday. As I said, I am sure the single will be released the following Tuesday. Album 3 weeks later. Tour starts in April. Here is an image of Bono leaving the shoot."

LET THIS BE REAL.

 

[corianderstem]

I'm skeptical of the tour bits, as this is just some random guy - who knows where he's getting that, or if he's just guessing.

But we know the Super Bowl bit is apparently true. WE ARE WEEKS AWAY FROM NEW MUSIC.
