Gary Bryan’s “Rewind”: Bono & The Edge In The Artist Spotlight

Tune in to 96.3 KKLZ every Sunday evening, 7pm-Midnight, as Gary "Rewinds" to your favorite years for the movies, TV Shows, and the music you love!

Sunday 04/10/22:  Gary chats with Bono and The Edge who tell the story of the Mom who was a roadie for U2!

U2 has won 22 Grammy Awards through the years, more than any other band in history.  In 2005 they were inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame in their first year of eligibility.  They're one of the best-selling bands in history, having sold an estimated 150-170 million records worldwide.  Rolling Stone ranks U2 at #22 on their list of the "100 Greatest Artists of All Time."

U2 has maintained a long relationship with Apple long before that time they made a majority of people mad by putting their new album on everyone's iPhone. 

Fourteen years ago today (October 26), Bono and The Edge joined Steve Jobs for the unveiling of the U2 Special Edition iPod, which held up to 5,000 songs, was black with a red click wheel (to go with the color scheme of their latest album How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb) and featured the band's signatures engraved on the back of the device.

Just seeing how quaint that iPod is now is just a reminder of how far we've come with our technology!
