Don’t show your wife, Tony

This is where our money goes, Tony, this is where our money goes. I like to imagine they’re having trouble because they’re trying too hard to invest in projects with a humanitarian bent. Right? Right? Sigh.

Beautiful music…

groaning wives.

Update (10:37 am, 1 Oct): A snippet of “Disappearing Act,” one of the unreleased UF tracks, is here. Raw, but good! (Thank you, Jon.)

“It’s time to go again…” for the first time

As U2log.com reports, the Greatest Band in the World performed “Your Blue Room,” a track from Original Soundtracks 1, the album they recorded in 1995 with Brian Eno as Passengers, for the very first time ever on Sunday night in Chicago.

Yeah, we were there.

I discovered U2start.com the next day, a site that makes bootleg recordings of U2 shows available for free. Which is a darn sight cheaper than the $25 to $50 I had to pay for the CD versions pressed by illiterate* Italians back in the late ’90s. Kids today! They don’t know how easy they have it.

*Well, English-illiterate.
