About: A little about me, I was bitten with the U2 obsession in 1991 with the release of Achtung Baby. Although I’ve known about U2 since the mid 80’s it wasn’t until the AB album that I was hooked. AB was the very first (and only) album that I had ever owned that I played straight through without hating a single song. I truly love every song on that album. Even today that album seems so fresh. My online activities, I'm curator of several U2 related sites: U2exit.com, U2torrents.com, U2fansites.com, and U2radio.com. I've maintained a U2 fan site in some form since the late 1990's.See Authors Posts (2587) on Jul 4, 2008 in News & Rumors | Comments Off

The Mighty Boosh star Noel Fielding has become friends with U2 guitarist The Edge, The Sun reports.

The surreal comic reportedly discussed music industry experiences with The Edge ahead of the Mighty Boosh band’s first live gig in Kent this weekend.

A source said: “Noel and The Edge have become really pally. The Edge has been giving Noel lots of guidance and advice about the band over the phone.

“He really loves the show and is keen to help out Noel any way he can.”

Fielding is also working on a Boosh album, which Mark Ronson is rumoured to be producing.
