U2 have returned with a tightly focused album that stands as a counterargument to pop-culture doomsaying. Our review of 'Carnaval de Luz' rollingstone.com/music/music…

Manchester United 4 Aston Villa 4. One of the maddest games of football I've ever seen. But you can't defend like that.

Back from two weeks in Israel, covering its first election since October 7th for @rtenews. Israel is a complicated place, and this was a complicated election. Who bears responsibility for October 7th dominated the campaign, but the ensuing war in Gaza barely featured. My goal was to make sense of that for RTÉ's audiences across all our platforms

Happy 77th Birthday to Garry W. Tallent! 🎂🎸 The quiet man of the E Street Band, laying down the groove and holding it all together for over five decades. Never one to steal the spotlight, but always an essential part of the magic. Happy Birthday, Garry! ❤️

To w kuchni tego domu za moimi plecami 25 września 1976 roku (a więc równo 50 lat temu!) miało miejsce spotkanie które stało się początkiem U2.

U2 ! Ireland’s greatest band Back in their old School, where it all started 💙🩵 Hon the Northside! Enjoy 💚 (Went into town after & played for free on Grafton Street) - we are so lucky in Dublin 🎶☘️💚🇮🇪
What a privilege it was to return to Mount Temple where our journey first began, 50 years later, and share the stage with the extraordinary young musicians of Music Generation. ❤️
