U2 Grammy Bound 2015 ?
Bono / U2 / U2TOURFANS / U2360
U2 is expecting 2014 to be a busy year for them. As we have reported earlier the endless supply of rumors keep us busy and dreaming of the possibility of something this year.
Lets look at this from U2’s point of view if we do not release something before the end of October we lose our chances for 2014 Grammy.
If we wait until 2014 to release well we have a whole year to look for that Grammy single or heck the whole album.
That makes sense right ? Well not from a fans point of view.
So fans its time to sit back relax listen to
some of the greatest old stuff you can find from the boys and wait it out.
Think lucky March !
Now what is a concern for us over here @U2TOURFANS. What will the tour be like? What can we expect? Some massive giant explosive tour with amazing visuals or maybe something small, inviting and warm.
We heard that the ideas that have been kicking around suggest a 3 stop with 3 different sets every night. Also we heard that maybe it would be 3 decades of U2 shows broken into those 3 nights.
Well back to our dreams we head as we await the next rumor.
Will God Resurface in New U2 Music ?
Arguably the most successful rock band in the world, U2 not only cries out against injustice, but also dares to imagine an alternative in light of the Christian vision.
The band searchingly examines the distortions of our world and proclaims with Scripture “the place that has to be believed to be seen” and “where the streets have
no name.” Will we hear them?
Celebration Time ! Lucky 13 Completed !
U2 , 360 Tour
The boys have been recently mastering their next project at the Electric Lady Studios in Manhattan.
The new ( yet to be named ) album, the 13th album in U2's discography. Danger Mouse has been enlisted to produce this product.
In addition to Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton, and Larry Mullen Jr., Coldplay’s Chris Martin was spotted on the scene, potentially as a featuring artist on the new album. Immediately following the wrap-up of the album, the band hosted a celebratory bash atop the studio.
Some famous faces turned up to wish the band success on the new album including Julian Casablancas of The Strokes and supermodel Helena Christensen.
At this rooftop celebration, the band also recorded an acoustic version video of ‘Sunday Bloody Sunday’ featuring Clayton on piano for “global participatory art project” Inside Out.
Though no official release date has been stated.

U2 Wraps Up In New York City
U2 have been in New York this past week working on their upcoming album at Electric Lady Studios, which was built opened in Greenwich Village by Jimi Hendrix in 1968.
Band members have been spotted there with producer Danger Mouse, reportedly mixing the disc. On Friday afternoon, all four members were on the roof of the studio doing an acoustic version of “Sunday Bloody Sunday” for a camera crew. Also spotted at the studio was Coldplay frontman Chris Martin.
On Friday night, Bono and The Edge played a private show at a party in New York’s SoHo neighborhood.
Chris Blackwell, the founder of Island Records and the man who signed U2, has heard the new album and calls it “better than ever.”
From all reports everythingis pretty wrapped up now and quiet again in New York. Bono was spotted out dinning with Danger Mouse and again spotted walking around New York City on Sunday.

U2 Mixing New Album In NYC
U2 have finished recording their new album, the follow-up to 2009′s No Line On The Horizon, and are currently mixing in New York City with producer Danger Mouse, according to reports, after three members of the band were spotted in NYC, most notably Bono outside Electric Lady Studios.
U2 are saying that recording of the new album is done and dusted, with a
playback happening last week. Tweets from Island Records head Chris Blackwell( posted earlier)
seem to confirm this, with the honcho saying “Listened to some new
music at Electric Lady Land studios earlier with U2 and Danger Mouse
#betterthanever”. Blackwell has since deleted the tweet. ( Yea wonder why )
Globe journo Brad Wheeler added fuel to the fire, sharing quotes from former Daniel Lanois, who produced The Joshua Tree and Achtung Baby amongst other U2 records. Lanois seems to have sat out of production duties this time around but has heard the new material, with Wheeler tweeting “Lanois tells me Bono dropped by his house in LA and that the new U2 album sounds ‘amazing’ and ‘big’, with some Achtung Baby adventurism”.
Sounds pretty promising, considering Bono confirmed that band were working on lucky album number 13 back in January, but the frontman also warned us not to hold our breath, stating that the band didn’t care if it took 10 years to get the album right.

Lanois tells me Bono is singing strongly and beautifully on the new U2 stuff. "He makes me jealous. Those barrel-chested Irish tenors."
— Brad Wheeler (@BWheelerglobe) May 30, 2013
On Danger Mouse, who's producing the new U2 disc, Lanois smiled as he said "It'll be a character-building experiment for him."
