  1. I suck at Acid Pro.
  3. Bono once said he thought Zooropa would become U2's Sgt. Pepper. I was thinking, until the 2005 Live 8 performance, the song Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band wasn't ever performed live (The Beatles never played it live). The song Zooropa is a bit like it: until last tour, Zooropa was only three times played.


  4. GarageBand should work on Windows.

    Unknown Caller was created on GarageBand, wasn't it?
  7. Originally known as "Four Letter Word" and later as "Sexy Boots", "Get On Your Boots" originated as a demo that guitarist The Edge recorded at his home with the software GarageBand.

  8. Cool! Get On Your Boots is a kick-ass song!
  9. Eno's iTunes library is a U2 superfan's wet dream, with what seems to be hundreds of discarded songs and alternate takes. In some cases, Eno has written critiques in the 'Comment' field, such as, "This song needs faster and more urgent singing." He demonstrates the evolution of one potential single, Stand Up Comedy: it began as a tune driven by Middle Eastern-sounding mandolins, with Bono singing, "We don't know what the future's gonna bring." From there, it took on a You Really Got Me-like riff and a chanted chorus that revolved around the words "for your love" -- a little too close to the Yardbirds for comfort. Then it shifted again: new riff, new melody and a chorus that retains only the words "for your love" -- upstairs, Bono and Lillywhite are still working on it. Get On Your Boots, which began as a GarageBand demo by the Edge, went through a similarly complex progression. At one point, it was called Four-Letter Word. And at some stage it lost its central riff, leaving it sounding like what Lillywhite describes as "a Beck B side" that was in danger of being dropped from the record altogether.
