@U2 ORIGINALS: SEPTEMBER
October 02, 2008 posted by: Tassoula
Here at @U2, one of the things we're most proud of is the original content we provide, created exclusively by our staff. In case you
missed any of it in September, the highlights are posted here:
Kelley Eskridge and Jennifer Tomooka kicked off the month by revealing the answers to the September @U2 Question of the Month, which asked fans "What would make it a perfect U2 album for you?"
Khoa Tran continued our "U2 Lists" series with his "Top 8 Alternative Songs". Stay tuned for more of these lists coming soon.
In our weekly Off the Record column, Matt McGee contemplated Obama's increased chance of winning the U.S. presidential election since U2's not releasing an album this year, while Sherry Lawrence updated fans on ticket industry news, following an article she wrote. Later in the month, Ian Ryan had a change of heart for U2 opening band Kings of Leon and Miranda Greer wondered if Larry Mullen, Jr. would've kicked Bono out of the band if he had his picture taken with Sarah Palin.
Cartoonist Kelly Eddington re-capped Bono's summer vacation in her latest Achtoon Baby. And our popular Like a Song series continued with an essay on "Running to Stand Still" by Jaime Rodriguez.
There was also a mid-month @U2 podcast, which featured an interview with the leaders of the Mothers of the Disappeared, a fan giveaway and a reflection on the Edge's unique guitar sounds—in addition to the regular segments.
And finally, I'm pleased to report we have updated and refreshed all four band member biographies. Take a peek, if you haven't already.
