The rumor/story is that Bono and Dave Stewart have penned a song in tribute to Nelson Mandella and his efforts towards humanity. They apparently will perform at the benefit and the other rumor is that Bono will be hosting…we’ll see!!~~ Hey has anyone heard or seen info about the song Bono sang at the kick off of the tour with Ashley Judd… “America’s Prayer”??

Bono is set to participate by satellite in Nelson Mandela’s Robben Island concert, raising funds for Africa’s millions of AIDS victims.
Former South African President Mandela announced this weekend that he will host a concert in February featuring some of the world’s leading entertainers to raise funds to fight the HIV/AIDS pandemic in Africa. Macy Gray and Shaggy are other early names lined up for the show which will be held on Robben Island, a rocky outcrop off the coast of Cape Town where Mandela spent nearly two decades as a prisoner of the apartheid regime and which is now a museum.
‘Mandela SOS’ will take place on 2nd February, and be televised worldwide. Mandela was joined at the launch by Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Oprah Winfrey, Virgin Group founder Richard Branson and Diesel President and founder Renzo Rosso.

I thought the band was going into the studio in December to record a new album? Guess not, unless we’ll be getting U2’s first instrumental LP.

Attn: Bono…PLEASE DON’T WEAR THAT PUTRID MILITAR-ISH CAP ON YOUR HEAD!?!?!? I can’t stand it anymore, every public event he wears that damn thing.

Nah, think they were always saying after the New Year. Of course now if Hands picks up Oscar and Golden Globes noms, then they’ll have to fit some song rehearsal in and go to those things to perform live (which would be nice…), so could set that timetable back a couple/few more weeks. (g)

New Album?? Oh yeah, that’s right….Bono is a singer in a rock band too! I thought he worked full time for the UN or something. My mistake…..

Here’s a clip of “American Prayer” http://www.zero.org/~dtena/aprayer.mp3
I pointed at this to the log here, but it apparently wasn’t quite newsworthy, seeing as how it’s only a few seconds, but it’s better than nothing, right???

Ryan, you may have noticed our post about the site being down for a few days. After that time I checked your link to the mp3, but then your site was down so I didn’t post it.

Oh yeah, that explains it!!! Wasn’t trying to be a smartass or anything, I honestly thought you were probably holding out for a full MP3, but there you go for the clip anyway!!!

Amen to whoever made the comment about the cap! It makes him look like Fidel Castro. Not really the correct garb for someone trying to save the world. Plus, he’s better looking without it.

WXRT in Chicago played the entire version of “American Prayer” recorded at Wheaton College. I tried to post about it but the site was down. The song is not rocking. I thought we were supposed to be “rocking” now. We are not rocking. It’s a sweet song, but boring and predictable. Hey, does anyone know when that Ramones tribute album with Beat on the Brat is supposed to come out?
