    I can see Bob Dylan joining if they do "Love Rescue Me". I know BB King is playing the same stage and he's a couple acts before them. I was thinking maybe he might join them on stage and they'll perform "When Love Comes to Town".

    It wouldn't have happened if Bono didn't have back surgery. Also, wouldn't it be the MLB's fault for making the schedule like it is without looking at U2's tour schedule?

    reminds me of 2009, when the Jets moved their Sunday game back to 1pm from 4pm so that Jets fans could be home in tome for the sundown start of Yom Kippur. U2 had to move their show from Friday to Wednesday (Thursday show was unaffected) because their would not be enough time to get the claw out of Giants Stadium.

    Weird. I'm in Calgary and it's working fine for me. Maybe the feed isn't available in the U.S.
