It happened, I am no longer an Earthquake virgin. I was at work when I felt and lived through my very first earthquake. It was freaky. I'm shaken but not stirred. I still love L.A. I've lived through tornados and hurricanes, so I've lived in dangerous places before. It will take more than the earth shaking to force me to move from the City of Angels. One the way home, the radio played Mysterious Ways, one of my favorites from Achtung Baby. I'm waiting for this reissue to ... MORE

The legendary Irish rockers stage "The Fly" Live in Chicago in 2007. I saw U2 live in St. Louis in 2006. Priceless.

One of the best properties of a song is its ability to capture a moment. As the second aniversery of Hurricane Katrina aprroaches, take a moment to remember what happened those days by watching this retrospective, set to One by U2.

While hard core Republican obstructionists and reactionaries vote against ethics reform and against health care for needy children, the RNC is embracing... Bono. The U2 frontman has been careful to never tell Republicans-- or his audience-- what he really thinks of them. The strategy is to keep the doors open so he can work with them. And he has. Bono actually has credibility with extreme right wing loons like Rick Santorum and some of the other maniacs. Today's Moonie Tim... MORE

hey audiofreaks: I need headphone help. The man and I are headed to the cape for our first flight without the bambino since pre-conception. Must turn up music loud and sleep before the raging begins. Please send some suggestions for headphones for my IPOD. The apple ear inserts fall out of my ears and the music is never loud enough. Once had earbuds, Sony cheapos, but lost the gummy particle. Help a sister out. Thanks.

Apparently this guy is so thrilled that Bank of America and MBNA merged, he decided to be Bono for a day and sing 'One'. He craftily changes the lyrics around to be about his beloved company. I am not much a fan of U2 at all, so I thought it was pretty funny. The guy does a good job, but I would have been laughing so hard if I was actually there. So this is our new boss? What a kook.

The Good LifeBy Jay McInerneyKnopf, hardcover, 368pp Are you sad to leave someone? Call me melancholic, but I count a positive answer to this question to be one of the more essential measures of a good book’s worth. That doesn’t take into account an icy poetic minimalist like the latter-day Don DeLillo, or post-modern game players such as Bret Easton Ellis. And of course it’s a rather old-fashioned value judgment based on how involved you’ve become with a novel and its c... MORE
