Monday night’s New Orleans Saints game against the Atlanta Falcons was the second most-watched cable television broadcast ever, averaging nearly 15 million viewers.

That ratings success was due in no small part to an emotionally charged pre-game performance by U2 and Green Day, who took the stage at the Superdome to debut their charity single, "The Saints Are Coming" (see "Green Day, U2 Take Historic Collabo One Step Further By Re-Enacting Beatles’ Abbey Road LP Cover").

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) – U2 frontman Bono has signed on as the first guest on musician/producer David A. Stewart’s upcoming music-themed interview show for HBO.

Described as "musicians on musicians," the show will feature the Eurythmics member interviewing fellow artists about their craft. One of the show’s producers, Jimmy Iovine, runs U2′s Interscope Records label.

The pay cable network has ordered six half-hour episodes of the show to air early next year.

U2 and punk rock trio Green Day performed several songs at the official reopening of the Superdome in New Orleans Monday, including a cover of the Skids’ "The Saints Are Coming," which was recorded to benefit musicians from the area ravaged by Hurricane Katrina.

U2′s new coffee table book – "U2 by U2" – has hit stores and last Friday the lads showed up for a bookstore signing. Some fans who got shut out from meeting the band in person, are upset that some who did make it in were simply there for the autograph’s financial value. Autographed copies of the books showed up on eBay very shortly after the event.
