Be The Change: 10 Organizations to Support on U2 Day (or any day)

Be The Change: 10 Organizations to Support on U2 Day (or any day)

One of the ways we can celebrate this band on International Day of U2 is to donate and or volunteer with one of the organizations held dear by the band.

U2 September: The Kind of Trouble I Enjoy

U2 September: The Kind of Trouble I Enjoy

This September feels like International MONTH of U2! Or at least it is starting out that way with two new U2 songs, radio and tv interviews supporting the release, the return of the Joshua Tree Tour, and, for us Edmonton-based fans, a little film called Rattle and Hum.

Festival City: Edmonton Folk Fest 2017

Festival City: Edmonton Folk Fest 2017

Edmonton may not be the most glamorous city in the world.  It’s not Paris.  It’s not Dublin.  Or New York.  It’s freaking cold and dreary in the winter.  But damn, this city knows how to party in the summertime. The prime example: the annual Edmonton Folk Fest, a four day celebration of some of the world’s finest folk musicians.

Duran Duran Appreciation Day

Duran Duran Appreciation Day

So inspired by the Duran Duran concert was I, that I went out and bought their latest album Paper Gods, quickly followed by more from their back catalogue. In honor of Duran Duran Appreciation Day, here is my review (love affair) with Paper Gods, Thank You, and All You Need Is Now albums.

Gaga for Gaga in Edmonton

Gaga for Gaga in Edmonton

Who jumps off of a plane after seeing concerts in Europe only to go to another concert a day later??  Crazy people, that’s who!  Me, that’s who!  Not going to cancel my U2 in Europe holiday, but can’t miss Gaga’s Joanne World Tour either! So I went… a little bit jet lagged… It was totally worth it!

Jet-lagged Musings of U2 in Brussels

Jet-lagged Musings of U2 in Brussels

Over 80 days ago, on May 12, 2017, U2 set out on a beautiful musical journey that would captivate their audiences with a 30-year-old album.  I was lucky enough to start my own musical journey with them that day for a total of 5 shows, just now finishing in Brussels on August 1, 2017.

The Church of U2 – Congregating for Dublin shows

So July 22 was U2 The Joshua Tree Tour in Dublin at Croke Park… sigh… I’m still processing the awesomeness… It is hard to put into words the significance of going to a U2 concert in Dublin (their hometown, for anyone who might not know…), but I am going to try…

A Brief History Of Everthing: Counting Crows and Matchbox 20

Part two of my summer of concerts continues at Rogers Place, a mere four days after Duran Duran in almost the same seat, for Counting Crows and Matchbox 20 and their co-headlining tour: A Brief History of Everything.

In Search of Paper Gods.  Duran Duran in Edmonton

In Search of Paper Gods. Duran Duran in Edmonton

So when the ultimate 80s synth band Rock Gods, Duran Duran, announced they were coming to my town, I jumped at the chance to see these Wild Boys live.  I mean, come on, Notorious, Rio, Hungry Like a Wolf!!??  Live!? Simon Le Bon, Nick Rhodes, John Taylor, and Roger Taylor in the flesh?  Delivering the tunes of my hey day?  How could I not go?  What kind of fangirl/Searcher of  Rod Gods would I be if I didn’t go???
