Originally posted by ChrisNH:THIS is why I hate TV news. After 'Beautiful Day,' Bono agreed to do another. He said it was a song 'They'd played a couple times before...' Then the Boston station (and probably all the others) went right to a whole bank of like five straight commercials...totally ruining it. Hey, I know that local TV stations feast on commercials; it's how they live life. But it seems like that is ALL it is about for them...car commercial, car commercial, carpet store commercial, car commercial, furniture store commercial. Nauseating.
Local TV news: It's all about the commercials, and it's why they're losing viewers. If there were a terrorist attack they'd say something like, 'We'll have that story after these important messages.' But the black-eye, I think, goes to the local ABC affiliates rather than GMA.
Aside from that anti-TV-News rant, I thought U2 sounded very good for an impromptu gig with a spartan set-up. 'Magnificent' sounded gorgeous. I thought the sit-down segment with the band was also great; each guy had something topical and meaningful to say, at an hour of the day when they're all normally sound asleep.
