"I once said to Bob Dylan, 'People are going to be playing your songs for thousands of years.' He said, 'Man, they're going to be listening to your songs too. It's just no-one's going to know how to play them.' Sometimes, that includes us." - The Edge 📷 38 years ago today in LA

"The only thing I can say is it’s a work in progress. We do not have a deadline. But I would hope by the end of the year we’d have some information to share, and perhaps we could suggest something for next year." - Adam on new music, April 2025 📷 7 years ago in San Jose

Bono receives a standing ovation at Cannes for his "Stories of Surrender" documentary.

"I use our songs to wake myself up. It's like sticking a needle in your leg after it has gone to sleep." - Bono, January 1986 📷 taken today in 1986 at Self Aid in Dublin

“We’re busy writing another reason to exist as a band. I still find Brian an extraordinary inspiration and I’m sure he still finds me quite frustrating. But I know he will keep on defending our right to be ecstatic in our music.” - Bono on recording new music with Brian Eno, 2025

So, here we go: U2 ~ Adam, Larry, #Bono, The Edge. Onstage in London tonight at the Ivor Novello Awards. Larry playing the guitar. As a drum 😎 And also singing with Bono. Why am i moved near to tears… #AngelOfHarlem

It seems like they were having a grand old time last night. Sounding sweet. 'Fellowship' indeed... 😊 Hoping for video to accompany the words at some point soon... U2 #IvorNovelloAwards bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

"Did I play you that song the last time we spoke? It was in my head—‘Freedom Is a Feeling.’ The thing is, I don’t just want to be singing about freedom. I want to be freedom, the feeling. That’s what rock ’n’ roll has to be." - Bono on new music, May 2025

"We’ve been playing in the room together. And I can tell you he is completely through whatever storm of injury he’s been through. His playing is at its most innovative. He’s just all about the band. He doesn’t want to talk about anything else, which is amazing." - Bono on Larry

"I won’t go to my grave thinking I wasted my time in terms of my activism. I might, however, go to my grave thinking there was that one U2 song I let go of, when it was so close and I went out the back door before it was finished." - Bono on balancing music and activism, 2025

Now that Stories of Surrender is out on Apple TV: if you've seen it, what is your review?

"It was difficult being away so I'm thrilled to be back in a creative environment, even if I'm not 100% there and I've got some bits falling off. It's just the most extraordinary thing. When I was away from the band, I missed it, but I didn't realise how much." - Larry, May 2025

Podcast episode #30 - From U2:UV to Sorrento So much has happened in the U2 world since our last episode. We're back to take it all in. We also talk about future new music and share our thoughts on the Stories of Surrender Apple TV film. Listen: u2start.com/podcast

"Could we turn up somewhere unexpected? Yes. But announcing a big tour, you can’t do more mega…you can’t do a more sci-fi extravaganza than Sphere. So we have to figure out a new way of being on the road and meeting our audience and all of that." - Bono, June 2025

"I hope they’re still there for us. We’ve stretched their elastic limits over the years, and it’s been a long spell away, but I still think we can soundtrack people who want to take on the world." - Bono on fans, May 2025

"Bono's journey really meant something, it carried the emotion of the day to people. So his performer's instinct was right. Again" - Adam on Bono's Live Aid performance 📷 taken 40 years ago today at Live Aid
