@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.

@U2 QUESTION OF THE MONTH: OCTOBER 2008
October 01, 2008
posted by: Kelley and Jennifer

Welcome to @U2's Question of the Month for October 2008: Happy birthday, Larry! And in honor of our favorite drummer, what's your favorite musical moment (in a song or a live show) from Larry?

Please send your responses to atu2.com@gmail.com by October 15. We'll post your answers -- and a new question -- on November 5.

Want to see what QOM is all about? Check out the responses to previous Questions of the Month in our News Database. And keep these guidelines in mind:

  • Share your own experiences, not your friend's or some random stranger's. Also, a lot of people might read your answer if we post it on @U2, so please keep that in mind if you're sharing personal information.
  • Please tell us your full name.
  • Since we don't know how many responses we'll get, we can't promise to publish them all. You can improve your chances by being specific, personal and brief (200 words or less is best). We reserve the right to edit for grammar, spelling and length.

QOM -- where @U2 turns the spotlight on you!

FORUM RE-CAP
September 30, 2008
posted by: Miranda

If you haven't checked out the @U2 Forum lately, here's a couple of posts you might want to chime in on:


  • You've told us which songs are your all-time favourites, but which songs do you think are the real 'Lemons'?
  • Politics schmolotics — the US presidential race is just about unavoidable right now — even if you're Bono. So why did our man want to meet Sarah Palin? Read what people think and express your opinion here.
  • What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. Or should that be what happens on tour stays on tour? What if your tour is going to start in Vegas? Discuss the potential 2009 U2 tour here.
