U2 “I’ll Go Crazy If I Don’t Go Crazy Tonight” From U2360° DVD
If you’re one of the many people (thousands upon thousands…maybe millions?!) who had tickets to U2’s upcoming 4th leg of the 360° tour, well, sucks. But (and this hardly will suffice for someone who booked a trip home to New York around the band’s upcoming Meadowlands tour date – ouch), the band will be releasing [...]

Rolling Stone’s Top 25 Best Albums of 2009 Cracks Me Up
I’m afraid my gripes with this one go way beyond a comment/Tweet/Facebook status update. Based almost entirely on the top 2, Rolling Stones’s Top 25 Best Albums of 2009 is easily the worst ‘best of’ list the magazine has ever done (counting year end albums lists only, cause Lord knows they’ve made a metric ton [...]

Album Review: U2 No Line on the Horizon
5.333333333
I wanted to steer clear of verbose negative reviews so not to have the unsubtle snobbery of certain music publications that will remain un-named (but linked). However, when compared to the blind admiration given by other music publications that will also remain un-named (but also linked), it doesn’t seem so bad. I suppose me meeting [...]

U2 Take Over New York (or Part of 53rd Street)
Not only did the city of New York name 53rd between 10th and Broadway “U2 Way,” but the band has been playing a residency on David Letterman this week to promote their new album, No Line on the Horizon, that kicked off Monday with a performance of “Breathe,” followed by last night’s “Magnificent.” I guess [...]
