    Who Dies in 'All I Want..' Video?

    OK...please forgive me if this has been discussed and debated to death. But who is it that dies in the 'All I Want is You' video? I think it is a fabulous song, and the video is altogether haunting. But I can't figure out who dies: it's either the girl or the guy she was with. But you see...

    A huge 'Bravo!' for the tour

    As I observe the tour thus far, I have been absolutely amazed at the sheer professionalism of the U2 organization. This goes far beyond the four men on stage. We know them and love them. But up and down the U2 organization, it is one First Class collection of professionals. I've seen U2 four...

    'Pop' falls from grace IMO

    It's interesting what happens to my opinion of an album after a few subsequent ones come out. I liked 'Pop' when it first came out, but now when I listen to a song like 'MoFo' I can't really believe how badly Bono sounds singing it, and the mix seemed horrible, too. No wonder U2 are thinking of...

    3rd leg: Different or same?

    What are your thoughts regarding the 3rd leg show...production and set lists? On one hand you could make a good case for a fair bit of revamping...maybe 30% to 40% different in terms of lighting, graphics, set lists, and so on? On the other hand, there are going to be several cities--most...

    'A Celebration:' Why rarely played live?

    I've never heard 'A Celebration' played live, but I loved it when it came out as a single 'way-back-when.' Seems like a very 'simple' song to play live, yet also a song that could get an arena jumping. Any thoughts as to why this gem rarely sees the light of day? Chris in New Hampshire

    Upper Bowl seats may be winners after all

    I just took a look at the short video on the staging technology being used this tour, and I have to conclude that the upper bowl seats may not be that bad! I'm in the upper bowl for two shows in Boston and GA for another two Boston shows. For the first show I am directly facing the stage from...

    'Keane' supporting U2 on 3rd Leg?

    This is strictly a question, not a rumor or anything I've heard. I'm wondering whether any of the support acts for U2's summer European swing (Keane being one of them) will be coming back to support the band in the U.S. this fall? Any news on that front? Chris

    'All I Want Is You' Video gone from U2.com?

    One of my favorite videos, 'All I Want Is You' from Rattle & Hum, is no longer on the U2.com web site. Anybody know why? Chris in New Hampshire

    Snow Patrol: Wish they were US opener

    I'm really not up on all the new music out there, and I didn't know Snow Patrol from a Snow Cone. But I saw a video of theirs on TV today and I loved it! They evoke images of other bands of the day that I like: Doves, Coldplay, Travis, et al. That they're opening for U2 in Europe rather than...

    Embroidered U2 patches?

    Does anyone know if there are any embroidered U2 patches that might be suitable for sewing onto the back of a denim jacket? I figure the smart place to look would be the souvenir stands at the arenas this spring, but ideally I'd like to get something soon. Is there a place to get such a thing...

    Lousy Photos in Liner Note Booklet?

    I suppose someone here will chime in and claim that horribly grainy black-and-white photos of the band--clipped from VIDEO footage no less!--is somehow a 'cool' and 'artistic' thing. I disagree. That booklet is certainly nothing to crow about, mostly because of the photography. That there's no...

    Chris in New Hampshire

    Hi everyone! My name is Chris, and I live in southern New Hampshire (Massachusetts sits 200 feet behind my house, to give you an idea how far south I actually live!). I've been a fan of this band since WBCN (104.1 in Boston) crowed about U2 between 'Boy' and 'October.' I saw U2 headline their...
