Who's up for a road trip?

U2 announced their U2 360° Tour today, with the first leg of the tour hitting stadiums in Europe, followed by some shows on the east coast. The New York and Boston shows are the ones that make the most sense for me location-wise, but I was just thinking it would be kind of fun to make a little vacation out of it. They'll be in Dublin on July 24th, and it would be amazing to be there, but I don't think I can do that one. Howevah, the announcement also talks about some upcoming dates in the fall:

In September and October, U2 360° Tour will also visit: Atlanta, GA; Charlottesville, VA; Dallas, TX; Houston, TX; Las Vegas, NV; Los Angeles, CA; Norman, OK; Phoenix, AZ; Tampa, FL; Washington, DC and Vancouver, BC. Complete Tour and ticketing information to follow.

It would be AWESOME to go to Vancouver to see the show!

Get on your boots.

Some Irish Stuff

It being St. Patrick's Day and all.

Let's start it off with the song "The Parting Glass" from the soundtrack of Waking Ned Devine:



Heck, how about the last 10 minutes of the movie?

Next, one of my favorite U2 videos (and songs):



And last, but certainly not least, how to pour the perfect pint of Guinness:



Happy St. Patrick's Day :-)

ETA: What's a post about Irish stuff without a potato song??
