About: Music Express: U2
Dave Fanning has known U2 since the band made their first demo tape in Dublin, Ireland in 1978. Since then, his radio show gets the world-wide first play on all U2 releases. Fanning recently met up with the band during the European leg of their Vertigo Tour. Bono talks candidly about his Dad, George Bush, America, politics and what U2 means to him. Edge reflects on everything, from the mistakes of the '97 Popmart Tour to what it means to have a lead singer whose extra-curricular humanitarian activities often over-shadow the triumphs of the band. It's open, it's personal, it's revealing - the most engaging interview with one of the biggest bands on the planet.

Friday, September 30, 2005 - The Rock Radio

U2 are on a short break from the second North American leg of their Vertigo world tour, which allows the group to evaluate some of the changes it's made to the show. Guitarist The Edge told us that the group wanted to do more than just repeat what it had done during its first swing on these shores earlier this year:

Miracle worker: Bono emotes at the TD Banknorth Garden last night. (Staff photo by Douglas McFadd) Boston Herald.

Bono can heal the sick and make the lame walk. Of this I am convinced. At the very least, he can make AARP members feel like teenagers again. Now that's a miracle worker.
Who knows, he might even be able to breathe life into the Red Sox.


Last night at the TD Banknorth Garden, Bono and crew proved that U2 is the best live act in popular music today. Nobody comes close. They're inspirational, sincere and, dammit, a heck of a lot of fun.

Not wanting to irritate the folks around her, Beth Anderson held up her sign that read ''Baby in My Belly Wants to Dance With Bono!" for just a minute. But it was long enough for Bono to notice. ''The Edge saw it first," said Anderson, who attended U2's show in Boston Monday with her pediatrician hubby, Joe. ''The Edge looked at it and smiled." Next thing she knew, the 31-year-old homemaker/model from Belfast, Maine, was being hauled onto the stage. ''I gave Bono a big hug, and he called me a 'sexy mama,' " giggled Anderson, who's 11 weeks along. What's the baby's name? ''We don't know the gender," she said. ''Baby Hewson?"

Tequila Sunrise
En directo desde Hampton, 12 Diciembre 1987 Esta versión corresponde a la parte final de la gira Joshua Tree, en uno de los conciertos en Hampton (Virginia), en la que Larry decide hacer un pequeño tributo a los Eagles (uno de sus grupos favoritos) y cantar esta versión de "Tequila Sunrise". Desafortunadamente parece que los nervios le juegan una mala pasada y tiene que dejar la canción a medias para que la acabe Bono.
