Inspired by Bono´s birthday, as well as his humanitarian work, ULTRAVIOLET-U2, the Brazilian U2 fan club, is promoting its SEVENTH  fundraiser for GRAACC, a hospital that treats children and teenagers with cancer.

In 2006, soon after the Vertigo Tour Shows in Brazil, ULTRAVIOLET-U2 decided to pay tribute to Bono on his birthday. There was the possibility of taking part in international campaigns such as "Build a Well", but the fan club opted for a local institution instead. Since then, every May we have been collecting funds among U2 fans and donating to the hospital.

GRAACC is an institution that treats children from all over Brazil for free. It´s always investing in the most advanced medical treatments and techniques, thus the reason why it was chosen as the fan club tribute to Bono.

I love Please.

The drums on this song reminds me Sunday Bloody Suday... like a military sound.

I guess the performances in the US will be very special.

Maybe they´ll pay a tribute to Le Brocquy.

U2 played "North Star" also in 2011 in São Paulo, Brazil.

It was amazing!

Thanks for this information. Everyone had already thought they were in the studio.
Dallas is a trustworthy guy. Maybe the person who wrote the message on Interference made a mistake... a misunderstanding.
Actually, I got the news from U2Place´website.
Thanks again! I´ll share it with my friends here in Brazil.
Let´s keep in touch
