Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen, Jr. answered questions from SiriusXM listeners about their celebrated career, everything from the very early days of the band when bassist Adam Clayton was their manager and The Edge's mother was the first U2 roadie, to the future of music streaming and distribution to their most recent album Songs of Innocence and their current tour "iNNOCENCE + eXPERIENCE Tour 2015." "On a night off during their 8-night, sold-out residency at Madison Square Garden, one of the world's biggest bands came to SiriusXM and delivered to our listeners and some very lucky subscribers a once-in-a-lifetime chance to be just inches away from their music heroes and ask them questions. And, at the end, as a surprise, the band invited the SiriusXM Town Hall guests to attend their sold-out show at MSG on July 30—it was truly a memorable and special event—sure to make for an outstanding broadcast," said Scott Greenstein, President and Chief Content Officer, SiriusXM.

  • U2 3D Talent: Bono, the Edge, Larry Mullen, Adam Clayton. Directors
    U2 3D Talent: Bono, The Edge, Larry Mullen, Adam Clayton. Directors: Mark Pellington and Catherine Owens Duration: 85 minutes Classification: G We rate it: 3 and a half stars. There’s no denying that Irish rock band U2 are probably still the biggest live musical act in the world, even after twenty-odd years of touring. Aside from maybe the great outdoor extravaganzas mounted during the 1970s and 80s by Pink Floyd, U2’s live gigs are renowned as dazzling, cutting-edge spectacles, as politically and ideologically provocative as they are musically engaging. Bono, the acknowledged master of making fame itself humanely useful, still struts his stuff as if he’s a 25-year- old, and the band that supports him is as skilled as rock bands get. To see this chart- topping foursome filmed playing before staggeringly large crowds in state-of-the-art digital 3D and surround sound is, admittedly, quite a spectacle. The peculiar thing, however, about sitting in a cinema and watching U2 3D is that throughout the experience, stunning as it is, one can’t help but reflect upon the fact that one is sitting in a darkened room watching film of a band playing live in front of crowds of a hundred thousand people. There’s something decidedly strange about sitting passively and observing (through the suitably nerdy polarising 3D glasses) this massive rock show, whose actual filmed audiences just don’t stop screaming and waving for a second. As one ruminatively chews one’s popcorn and sips one’s soft- drink, one can’t help but feel faintly left out, to say the least.

  • H.Doc. 108-224 Black Americans in Congress 1870-2007
    Keeping the Faith: AFRICAN AMERICANS RETURN TO CONGRESS, 1929–1970 With his election to the U.S. House of Representatives from a Chicago district in 1928, Oscar De Priest of Illinois became the first African American to serve in Congress since George White of North Carolina left office in 1901 and the first elected from a northern state. But while De Priest’s victory symbolized renewed hope for African Americans struggling to regain a foothold in national politics, it was only the beginning of an arduous journey. The election of just a dozen more African Americans to Congress over the next 30 years was stark evidence of modern America’s pervasive segregation practices. The new generation of black lawmakers embarked on a long, methodical institutional apprenticeship on Capitol Hill. Until the mid- 1940s, only one black Representative served at any given time; no more than two served simultaneously until 1955. Arriving in Washington, black Members confronted a segregated institution in a segregated capital city. Institutional racism, at turns sharply overt and cleverly subtle, provided a pivotal point for these African-American Members— influencing their agendas, legislative styles, and standing within Congress. Pioneers such as Adam Clayton Powell, Jr., of New York, Charles C. Diggs, Jr., of Michigan, and Augustus (Gus) Hawkins of Adam Clayton Powell, Jr., of New York, a charismatic and determined civil rights proponent in the U.S. House, served as a symbol of black political activism for millions of African Americans. Image courtesy of Library of Congress California participated in the civil rights debates in Congress and helped shape fundamental laws such as the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
