Community Moderator mich40 Posted September 24, 2020 Community Moderator Share Posted September 24, 2020 Can you believe that September 25th marks 44 years of U2? Looking around the socials, there are several things going on to celebrate this occasion. Right here in the Zoo, we have a couple of things going on. Tomorrow, (Friday, 25 September), we have the 4th annual (if my calculations are correct) U2 T-shirt Day: https://zootopia.u2.com/forums/topic/41325-u2-t-shirt-day-25-september-2020/?tab=comments#comment-1198471 On Saturday, we also have a listening party for The Unforgettable Fire, here: https://zootopia.u2.com/forums/topic/41346-u2getherathome-a-celebration-of-the-unforgettable-fire/ As I was saying earlier, looking through the socials, I have seen other events also. A very good list of those events can be found here: https://insearchofrockgods.com/u2day-events/ If you have or know of any other events, please feel free to add those to this thread. Also, please add your congratulatory/celebratory comments to the band in this thread. It's a Celebration! Act accordingly. #U244 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Load up your R&H dvds and we’ll all aim to press play at (roughly) the same time. Then tweet along using the hashtags #U2Day20, #InternationalDayOfU2, and #U2getherAtHome.

There are times where I realize I'm not listening to U2 as much as usual - but never a time I'm not listening at all. Happy 44. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[...] Looking at this picture and... imagine the chemistry in that room! I am younger than the band (I discovered U2 in the late 90s during the Pop Era when I was a teenager) and I am still impressed. More than a rock band!! 💛 Happy 44!!

Subscriber alibono Posted September 25, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted September 25, 2020 On September 25, 1976 - exactly 44 years ago: 4 Irish boys came together to make music: Larry Mullen Jr., Adam Clayton, David Howell Evans - aka The Edge and Paul David Hewson - aka Bono Ambition, perfection, skill, passion, love of music, a deep and eternal friendship and the love to their fans connects U2 from the start - until today. U2 are not just a band...U2 is a philosophy of life...for me the soundtrack of my life There is no them...there is only us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
