Only 24 Hours For The Real Thing!!!

Twenty four hours until showtime in Turin.

With rehearsals done for another day at the Stadio Olimpico, fans who've been waiting outside the venue are in for a surprise. 

U2 have done lots of things throughout their career, they have tried new musical styles and have reinvented themselves as many times as needed.Do you think it is time for a change of career??

So good to see Larry out!!!

Pizza Delivery Boys suit them!!!

To the surprise of all the fans outside the Stadio Olimpico, the guys delivered pizza to their diehard fans. They reported that Adam got tempted and tried a slice with them!

Magnificent, Amici!!!!

A House Based on U2´s Props

Bruce Ramus, who spent 16 years directing hundreds of shows for Irish rockers U2, has listed his 1,860-square-foot post-and-beam waterfront home in British Columbia for $1.5-million. The home sits on 1.25 acres of wooded island property and includes a giant sectioned olive, a leftover prop from a U2 show.
The three-bedroom home, which took four years to build and has cedar and fir flooring throughout, was dubbed Posts Standing because of its native longhouse and Japanese temple influences. It’s heated by a central fireplace and has beautiful panoramic views of Howe Sound. Its design, Mr. Ramus says, was inspired in part by his association with Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jr.“I grew up as an artist when I was with U2,” says Mr. Ramus. “We shaped each other’s way of looking at things, like, ‘What do you want to say with your life?’ They are engaged with that question. I wanted to make a significant work in architecture.”Posts Standing was designed by B.C. architect Henry Yorke Mann and built with ecologically friendly construction methods. Its massive posts are from cedars that grew on the lot and were milled on site. The walls are six inches thick and require no insulation.
Mr. Ramus, who has also worked with the Rolling Stones, David Bowie and R.E.M., bought the property from actor Carl Weathers.



I wonder where the lemon is... would that make a good house too? Would Larry like to live there?

3 Days to Come and It´s Larry Mullen´s Time!!!

U2.com reminds us that  "in three days time  Turin gets to see the return of U2 360°.Rehearsals are underway at the Stadio Olimpico... and  Larry Mullen Jr  is on the drums..."





Meanwhile Bono shows us how well he has recovered holding up a very young fan.

He was interviewed by the Italian newspaper La Stampa where he mentions that U2  have 25 songs which are ready and they are working on four projects:"an ambient album, Songs of Ascent", "a rock album, a "club music" album, "the soundtrack of Spiderman, the musical debuting on Broadway in November" )as close as we can understatd Italian).
