  1. Originally posted by jofice:Bono interview in the Irish Heald yesterday, would scan it but my scanners broken said something about the new record being his favorite and I also think it mentioned the new album being released next year not to sure since I left the pull out in my aunties


    Next year!? Geez... I thought it was going to be Summer 2010. Then it was going to be late 2010. Now it's next year. Next question is when about next year. Could be late 2011. Who knows?


  2. Which also means Edge is on fire, given the torrent of molten metal.

    Next year means 2012. But they've gotta get it in before end of 2012, until the end of the world.
  3. Bono is said to have gone to an orthopedist in Munich.

  8. From @U2, might have been posted earlier though:

    Confirming what many fans have suspected, U2 360 Tour Designer Willie Williams said this week that this year's shows will have a different opening than last year's concerts. Williams made the comments Thursday during an interview on Cleveland's WBWC radio station. He didn't specify what the exact changes would be, nor which song will open the upcoming shows, but he did say the band feels a need to make some changes to keep the shows fresh.


  9. Heard it before but I like it anyway Change is good xD

    CANNES, France (Reuters) - U2 lead singer Bono has undergone emergency surgery on his back in a Munich hospital after being injured while preparing for the next leg of the band's world tour, a spokesperson said Friday.

    The 50-year-old from Ireland had been preparing for the North American leg of the "360 Degree" world tour which is due to kick off in Salt Lake City on June 3.

    "Bono has today undergone emergency back surgery for an injury sustained during tour preparation training," his spokesperson said.

    "He was admitted to a specialist neuro surgery unit in a Munich hospital.

    "Bono will spend the next few days there, before returning home to recuperate. Once his condition has been assessed further, a statement will be made regarding the impact on forthcoming tour dates."

    After North America, the tour was scheduled to travel to Turin in Italy on August 6. It was not immediately clear how badly the injury would disrupt the group's tour.

    The tour earned around $109 million in 2009, according to music journal Billboard, making it the world's most lucrative, and the publication also predicted it would end up being the highest-grossing tour in history.

    By some measures the band, with hits like "Sunday Bloody Sunday" and "Where the Streets Have No Name," is the world's most successful. They have sold more than 150 million records, according to unofficial estimates.
