Re: bono & edge, sittin' in a tree ...


I definately know that U2 advocate for human rights for everyone. Also, a
song by U2 (Night and Day - Youth's Remix) is on Out Loud: For the Human
Rights and Freedom of Lesbians and Gays which was released in 1995. The
artwork of the buffalo falling from a cliff from the One single was done by a
gay
artist.

I am so glad this group is up and running again! Is anyone here planning on
going to any of the East Coast shows when the tour gets going?
