“The last two records were very personal, with a kind of three piece at their heart, the primary colours of rock – bass, guitars and drum. But what we’re about now is of the same order as the transition that took us from The Joshua Tree to Achtung Baby,” he says.
oh please please please bono be speaking the truth…
in other news, i got a ticket for answering my cell phone and spending 15 seconds on it, at a RED LIGHT. yes i know NY law is you can’t use a phone without a headset while driving, but technically i wasn’t driving. i was at a stop light. i answered it when the light was red, i hung up when the light was red…i saw the cop turn around and come up behind me. i had time to back up and change lanes so i could switch from going left, to going right, and still sat there at the red light….loooong after i had hung up. so i don’t feel like i’ve done anything wrong. does anyone know what the law actually says, do i have a case to fight it? i saved the call log in the phone, that says it was 15 sec long, and anyone in the city should be able to find out how long the light stays red on meadow dr….as usual the ticket doesn’t say how much the fine is, or i would just pay it. otherwise i’m due at court on the 24th at god awful 9:30am. i’ve never heard of traffic court that early wtf….ok i looked up the law, from the NY state website, which states “no person shall operate a motor vehicle upon a public highway while using a mobile telephone to engage in a call while such vehicle is in motion.” and my vehicle was absolutely NOT in motion, so i don’t think i should have gotten a ticket.
and trent added a one off, intimate stripped down club show at house of blues in atlantic city on Nov 6th. so he just made my tour decision for me…it’s a thursday, i have one and a half vacation days left so i’m going to go to that show, refund worcester and skip that one, and then just hamilton the following friday.
