Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with a live performance on YouTube by one of Ireland’s best rock groups. U2 The Virtual Road - 4 Ground-Breaking Concert Films is a four-week series that kicks off with U2 Go Home: Live From Slane Castle - Ireland 2001 tomorrow. Next Thursday, March 25 will bring U2: Live At Red Rocks, Denver, Colorado - USA 1983; followed by Popmart - Live From Mexico City - Mexico 1997 on April 1; and iNNOCENCE + eXPERIENCE: Live in Paris - France 2015 on April 10. Each show will feature remastered audio and enhanced visuals. The series will also present an opening act each week, although these performances are unrelated to the original U2 concerts. For example, Dermot Kennedy’s performance tomorrow was recorded last week just outside Los Angeles.
Happy Birthday to Heart vocalist-guitarist Nancy Wilson. She and her sister Ann created several rock and roll classics, and made it possible for other women musicians to follow in their path. Nancy’s tuneful, acoustic single “You And Me,” which she describes as a tribute to her mother, just came out and it’s the title track of her upcoming solo album. She’ll be one of several well-known performers taking part in the All Together Now L.A. virtual charity event taking place this Saturday. A text-to-donate link will be available throughout the event, with 100% of proceeds going to help homeless families and support first responders, musicians, and venues affected by COVID-19.
Pete Townshend and Roger Daltry will soon join together for a virtual discussion regarding the 5 CD, 2 seven-inch singles Super Deluxe Edition The Who Sell Out that’s being released on April 23. Fans can submit questions about the original album or the new box set, and some of those questions will be answered as part of the show. Maybe someone could ask what treasures will be found among the 47 previously unreleased tracks. The official Facebook page for The Who doesn’t mention a date yet for the Townshend-Daltry discussion, but the deadline for submitting questions is tomorrow, March 17 at 3:00 p.m. UK time.
