    I get your point about “not their president” but they do sometimes live in the US and they definitely do business there. So go ahead.

    Also your point about other leaders is also noted. I really want a Love Is All We Have Left/Walk On segue. Maybe they can take a few shots at An Sung Su Kyi during?
    That’s a good idea as a duo love is all we have left going into Walk on. Would love to have walk On back this tour anyway and the more songs they play from SOE the better, that is the album they’re touring after all.
  2. U2’s Live Grammys Performance Won’t Actually Be Live
    January 27, 2018 voxxLeave a Comment
    Early in their career, U2 made their reputation as an amazing live band, a reputation that they’ve maintained to this day, 40 years into their tenure. Their tours are a huge event and their performances are generally a big deal, but it looks like there’s going to be an asterisk appended to their appearance at the Grammys on Sunday. TMZ reports that the band won’t actually be performing live during the ceremonies, but rather, their performance is being pre-recorded tonight, on a barge in the Hudson River.

    While U2’s live performance not actually being live might seem like a bummer, it appears that it’s actually a necessary concession to make, or at least an artistically interesting one: A nighttime performance on a river is bound to look pretty cool, and there’s no way they’d be able to pull that off live while also performing with Kendrick Lamar during the show.

    So, it’s not like the band won’t be performing live at all, but rather that they’ve chosen to make parts of their performance innovative over actually happening at that very second. U2’s performance tactics sound similar to what Lady Gaga did during last year’s Super Bowl halftime show: Her jump from the top of the stadium was pre-recorded, but the rest of her performance was live, and that whole thing turned out pretty well.

  7. Tom Brady says that the 5 artists he must have on his playlist to concentrate for the games are: Jay-Z, Coldplay, U2, Pearl Jam and Kendrick Lamar.
    I guess he must like XXX and American Soul.

    We can now sleep at peace.

    That's like...THE most "surface" group of favourite artists I've ever seen lmao. Like straight out of an ad for the Grammys.
  9. To his defense (I can't believe I am defending Brady), he mentioned Pearl Jam. He could've said Bruno Mars or Beyonce.
