Is "Peace On Earth" sung by Edge?

This has been a rumor for 25 years.

I received 2 CDs today outside of Philadelphia. I wish I had the option to decline these, as I haven't had any way to listen to CDs in probably half a decade, and it seemed wasteful to not only mail me one, but two. I guess you have to get those album sales up somehow.

I gave up wearing my Zoo TV condom a few years ago.

It does sound like they're back to playing Pride at the original tempo in the original key, instead of that muddy version we've heard for years. Tight!

Looks like the band will be broadcasting a BB King tribute live on Meercat: Tune in here... #AngelofHarlem Less than hour... #U2ieTour If so, they've got someone on tour with them who knows what the hell they're doing with social media.

Well...this brought me back to the forum after a looooooong hiatus. If the band won't come to Philly...

Have been a U2.com member since the beginning, and have never used it for "fan engagement" purposes. The band really doesn't even seem involved at all in the site.

Me as well, please: jim.walls@rcn.com

I haven't been here in years, then I come back, and it's a bunch of strangers. I'm so confused. Where's the comfort?

This is really the heart of what we're all so upset about, isn't it folks? The band closed up shop with Propaganda and went to Ticketmaster (likely as a way to cut costs and increase profits)--and Ticketmaster failed us. Propaganda had the fans' best interests at heart. Ticketmaster, as decades...

Well, at least k-rider gave us pretty much his entire business model before he left. Might as well put this info to good use. We're all gonna be rich, I tell ya! RICH! We're gonna live like KINGS! Anyone want to buy a keychain? I may not actually have it yet, but I just put it up on eBay for $50.

I really don't think this guy cares about the "u2 concert experience." Scalping is a business. Ticketmaster is a business. Fanfire is a business. Principle Management is a business. This is capitalism, plain and simple, folks. Make no mistake: radio stations, arena management, the media, the...

Sorry, but your presale code is only good for the first two legs of the tour. Oh, you didn't know? Well, It was in the fine print. You should have seen it.

Apparently, the best way to get tickets is to get to know your local scalper. Your only other option, unfortunately, is to befriend a radio station executive or Ticketmaster employee. But that's only as a last resort and is not recommended.
