U2 Academic Conference, May 2009, NYC

Yes, kiddies, it’s true:

The Hype and the Feedback: A conference exploring the music, work, and influence of U2

Hosted by Cedarville University. In New York City. May 13-15

If I submitted a paper, it wouldn’t be much more than channeling Chris Farley: “Remember when you sang, ‘Bad,’ at Wembley Stadium and you just went on and on? That was awesome.” Or, “Remember when you did the Zoo TV outdoor concert at Dodger Stadium? I was with my girlfriend, who is now my wife. That was awesome.” So I’ll let the scholars do their scholar thing. But I’d sure love to be a fly on the wall at this one.

UPDATE: The “U2 in Paris” album (via iTunes) is awesome.

Remember when I slept out all night in 87 for tickets to the LA show? Dude that was awesome!

Remember when you climbed the stage at the US festival?
