U2

Confirming weeks of rumors, U2 have announced that they'll kick off the promotional campaign for their new album during Super Bowl LVIII on Feb. 2.

If you want to make a big splash with your charity event, it helps to have friends in high places, and Sean Penn knows more than a few. Case in point: Penn's third-annual Help Haiti benefit, held in Beverly Hills on Jan. 11, lured none other than U2 to the stage for the first time in three years.

U2 won a trophy for Best Original Song last night at the Golden Globe Awards, but it's unlikely that's what lead singer Bono will remember when he looks back on the evening years later.

A hybrid project that boasted gutsy live reworkings of tracks from their smash album 'The Joshua Tree,' cover songs honoring Bob Dylan and the Beatles and nine new cuts, U2's 'Rattle and Hum' tried to be everything to everybody. It didn't quite get there.

30 years ago, on the night of June 5, 1983, a half-capacity crowd risked inclement weather to congregate at scenic Red Rocks Amphitheatre, situated outside Denver, Colorado, and witness, unbeknownst to them, one of the critical events in the inexorable rise to stardom undertaken by Irish rockers U2.

Bono has revealed the working title of the next U2 album, which will be the band's 13th studio effort. Are you ready? Drumroll please … It may be called '10 Reasons to Exist.'

Three weeks ago, we learned that Ringo Starr is the world's richest drummer. Now, the same website lists Starr's former bandmate in the Beatles, Sir Paul McCartney, as the most valuable lead singer (and presumably, bass player) in the world.

Thanks to everyone that came out to JACK's first ever Throwback Concert with some of the best tribute bands you will ever see. It was easy to close your eyes on the beach and imagine you were actually at a Tom Petty, U2, Bruce Springsteen or Van Halen concert when you were actually listening to Full Moon Fever, Elevation, Glory Days and Panama...
