Maddy Rotman is a photographer. Nico Geyer is a musician and leadman of a band called Nitefire. Nitefire loves U2.
Maddy and Nico on the piece:
This piece was inspired by the confusion, listlessness, and unassuredness one feels when becoming a young man - a central theme in U2's body of work. The feeling of frenzy the piece evokes was just as much a part of its creation process. With just one rainy LA afternoon to shoot, Nico and I became hellbent on taking as many photos as possible in as many locations as possible; pitching, with great success, to all of our friends, “Wanna be in a U2 video?” We snapped quickly outside strangers' houses in the Valley before we could get caught, embraced enamored onlookers in Santa Monica looking for their big break, crashed a child's birthday party at our favorite park, and saw corners of our city we may have never seen otherwise. To turn “good“ to “great”, I did it all with my best friend.
Nico on U2:
Growing up, U2 was always the music my friends’ parents listened to. U2’s Vertigo was also the first song I listened to in 2007. As I grew older, more and more of U2’s discography began to unfold before me, and more of their songs, all the way from Boy through Zooropa to All That You Can’t Leave Behind, became staples in my musical appetite. Today, I’m constantly referencing their work both musically and visually. Their tact for songwriting, their ability to meld genres, their beautifully simplistic lyricism, and their confidence are what makes them one of my favorite bands. As a friend put it once, you don’t get U2 until life gets 2 U.

#U2 #Gloria #Remastered
Lyrics:
I try to sing this song
I, I try to stand up
But I can't find my feet.
I, I try to speak up
But only in you I'm complete.
Gloria
In te domine
Gloria
Exultate
Gloria
Gloria
Oh, Lord, loosen my lips.
I try to sing this song
I, I try to get in
But I can't find the door
The door is open
You're standing there, you let me in.
Gloria
In te domine
Gloria
Exultate
Oh, Lord, if I had anything, anything at all
I'd give it to you.
Gloria
In te domine
Gloria
Gloria
Filmed at the San Siro Stadium in Milan, Italy on 21st July 2005 during the Vertigo tour of Europe, this live video for With Or Without You from the album The Joshua Tree was directed by Hamish Hamilton.

"Burj Al Babas is a ghost town of over 700 identical baroque-style chateaus in Mudurnu, Turkey that was supposed to be a luxury development for wealthy foreigners. However, the project went bankrupt in 2019 and remains incomplete and uninhabited to this day. Viewing pictures from afar, I was struck by how Burj al Babas looked like virtual space due to the repetition of the architecture. So I hired my favorite freestyle drone pilot (@mrsteelefpv) to shoot what looks like a flythrough animation."
"Bono has described U2’s 1991 single “The Fly” as "a crank call from Hell... but [the caller] likes it there." This contradictory experience of enjoying hell resonated with our experience at Burj Al Babas, and I think that comes through in the video."

'It's no secret at all...' The Fly is the second song on U22, the soundtrack of U2360°. Catch the video. Join U2.com. Get U22, limited-edition, double-live CD, 22 tracks chosen by U2 fans. http://smarturl.it/U22y
Did you see the 360° show in 2009? And did you look up at the mighty stage and wonder how long it took to build ? Just a couple of minutes as it turns out... when you're watching it on time lapse video. Like this one.
Takes several days to build the breathtaking spectacle that is the 360° touring 'Spaceship'.
But as you probably haven't got days to watch this beautiful creature emerge from the trucks onto the stadium floor, you might want to check out this clever piece of time lapse photography which captures the stage being built and performed on. And taken down again ready for the next city.
'You're not the only one staring at the sun...'

'It's great to be back,' says Adam as the band take to the stage in Turin and U2360° opens up again in Europe. 'Return of the Stringray Guitar' ... and a pizza delivery.

Yana Yatsuk (b. 1993) is a Ukrainian born photographer based in between Los Angeles and New York. She moved to New York from Atlanta, Georgia at age 16 on her own and slowly began pursuing photography as self-taught. Growing up as an immigrant in the South shaped Yatsuk's work by naturally embodying grit, diversity, and humanity in its rawest form.
"I wanted to make something that told a story about love. The beautiful, the pain, chapters, up and down movements, and overall contrasting experiences of it all.
I thought the dancers would be perfect as I wanted to tell a story with movement and not words."

The night when @whenyoungband went to see U2 in Dublin.
#U2 #U2eiTour #whenyoung #Dublin #mindblowing
Sir Mick Jagger, Phil Ramone, Kanye West, Rick Rubin all got shout-outs from Bono tonight, and the near 85,000-strong audience made it a night to remember.
Stand-out moment ? Probably when one young man got invited to lap the stage for City of Blinding Lights.
The band also smashed the house record tonight at Giants Stadium. The previous attendance record was held by Pope John Paul II after his visit to the stadium in 1995.
Ready for Vertigo, ready for the show tonight? San Jose here we come.

Matthew Melchionne is an animator and musician living in Philadelphia. He is most interested in pastiche, sampling and collage. He’s not particularly good at talking about himself.
When I first had the opportunity to work for U2, it occurred to me that there was a poignant synecdoche implicit in the project. To me, Retracking a catalogue and the song ‘Miracle Drug,’ where Bono pleads for a medicine that will save a life, are both really paradoxical artistic statements. To honor a creative legacy while moving forward with energy. To accept and imminent death while yearning for a live-saving therapy. In my own limited way, I wanted to make a graphic that would suggest the cycle of flourishing/cU2ancerous growth and decay/life anew. I also really like desert settings for videos.
Of course I gagged when I learned that my work would be with U2. “Sunday Bloody Sunday” is in regular rotation at my DJ sets. I love how it builds on Nile Rogers disco guitar music but also anticipates Rave and Madchester. I think the earnest sentimentality of Bono’s lyrics and melodicism and The Edge’s novel approach to guitar playing unlocked a lot for me, as an adolescent!
