Another festival? Ok then. Would be cool. 3 day minimum turn around from Brussels though.

Just a rumour of course.

Not liking the idea of Brussels not being the end of the Joshua Tree thing.

This photo is masterful. I know it's taken in your wooden attic and I guess you have the t-shirt framed with a glass in the front... look at these wood tables doing a rainbow shape around the Music Rising's logo , then disappearing at the end of the black t-shirt cloth... Wow.

I may, maybe may, might be reading too much into the photo itself trying to hide my envy for the signature. Ha.

British songwriter accuses U2 of stealing song for Achtung Baby

And heres the song. Seems like a frivolous law suit to me- which has taken him 26 years to file.

I could only listen to a minute of that. Can't see it going anywhere. Perhaps looking a quick quid to avoid court.

If he is looking for a quick quid I think he's chasing the wrong band, I can't imagine the band with there principles will accept this, could end up costing the guy a fortune, it's not even close to sounding like the fly.

oh my Godness here too , i can't believe......like for LedZep with "stairway to heaven", there's always someone that after many years searches vision and visibility, bullshits.

At the start it vaguely sounds it, but only barely. But if someone played me it without telling me both tracks had a resemblance, I would never bat an eyelid, AT ALL. He is just looking for some money because he never made it in the music industry at the time. Yet if this guy copyrighted the song before U2 released The Fly then U2 might have a bit of a problem. Look at Robin Thicke and Pharrell, they thought they were fine but they ended up having to splash out loads of money to Marvin Gaye's estate.
