U2: Music Rising
built 127 days ago
U2 and Green Day welcomed the New Orleans Saints back to the Superdome in style with a mesmerizing 10-minute performance that rivals U2's 2002 SuperBowl appearance. And you can watch it on YouTube. The highlight of the show was the groups performing "The Saints are Coming", an old Skids song (Andrew Careaga's got the history). The song and performance were a benefit for Music Rising, an organization the Edge started to help replace the instruments of Gulf Coast musicians.

U2 anticipates the changes that will sweep through pop music in the early ’90s, and emerge darker, leaner, and ahead of the curve. The filtered distortion of “Zoo Station” and “The Fly” are The Edge’s rawest sounds yet, and the cigarette-lighter anthem “One” grows from a gracefully simple blues riff.

In August 2007, UABRS was the first U2 tribute band to ever play Red Rocks amphitheater. Fans reminisced at the sold-out venue as the band recreated the ultimate U2 experience not seen or heard since June 1983. The music of U2 echoed off the walls of Red Rocks with over 9,000 fans chanting the lyrics of great U2 songs such as With or Without You, Pride (In the Name of Love), and Sunday Bloody Sunday.

You can catch a live five-song set of brand new U2 material on the BBC's Radio 1. If you're really a U2 fanatic, you can listen to Zane Lowe's entire show for the occasional bit of interview, otherwise skip to 1:38:XX into the show for the music (and good luck with the BBC's goofy player that has no rewind or fast-forward buttons). You can ... tune into Jo Whiley's show for more interviews spaced throughout her show and cuts from How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb.
