U2log.com Podcast

Sorry folks. Life got busy for us and so we won’t be putting out a pod­cast this week. But like most bands these days, since we’ve got four “albums” out it’s time for our great­est hits to be released. 

So why not head back down mem­ory lane and lis­ten to past episodes, includ­ing such clas­sics as:

• Episode 1 — Inau­gu­ra­tion Day — our first release!
• Episode 2 — The Claw — we talk about U2’s claw, a theme that will be fea­tured in later albums as well.
• Episode 3 — Belated Mother’s Day — We go back to our roots and send one out to our mothers.
• Episode 4 — The Claw Attacks — We revisit the claw in prepa­ra­tion for U2’s upcom­ing tour.

Enjoy! See you in a cou­ple weeks!

Astute readers/listeners may note that all of our episodes are included in our great­est hits.

Wel­come to episode 4, “The Claw Attacks.”

As men­tioned in the pod­cast, we’re look­ing for your help with the pod­cast. Here’s a cou­ple ways you could help out:

• Send us some album art for each episode. We love the U2log.com logo and we’ll prob­a­bly keep that incor­po­rated some­where, but if you can design a 600px x 600px image that would rock the boat for an episode, send it in!
• Do you have a cover of a U2 song you’ve done? Or a remix of your favorite song that you did? We’re look­ing for help for our outro/ending music and we’d love to use some fan’s creations/tributes to end our pod­cast. Send us a link to your song some­where on the web or try out our Sound­cloud dropbox
