Every November, the great droid gathering begins.

Saturday night. “My mind can wander…” Love digging out old vinyl for a spin…

Friday night. U2 remixes spinning on the turntable…loud…

I remember jumping through hoops to get a copy of this on CD in 1998. Finally found a store with copies willing to send one to Canada in return for a money order. Took about a year to get it. 😂

U2 lands at #57 on Rolling Stone's "The 250 Greatest Songs of the 21st Century So Far" list. See the full list here: www.rollingstone.com/music/music-...

Breaking Waves... www.u2songs.com/news/breakin... #U2 salute to Anton Corbijn, "Three" hits crazy prices, no U2 for Record Store Day's Black Friday event, and more at the link above.

Was asked about this one on the @u2songs.bsky.social account. Yes, those are my copies of the “Three” EP. There’s another dozen or so that didn’t make the photo. “Out of Control” was written on my 5th birthday and has always been a fave, and as the first record I’ve always looked for copies…

Fall 1993. Dressed up for some event in university. What’s that around my neck? A handmade pendant of Cosmo the Achtung Baby? Sure is. It would glow-in-the-dark too.

I just wait over here for you to be done your day so we can have “weekend Winston fun time”.™️

Saw Superman today. It didn’t disappoint. I’ve been waiting for that for a while now. And Krypto is the goodest boy. This new DC Universe is off to a strong start.

Ross Andrew Stewart shares his photography of #U2 via an updated website. Some great shots to be seen, including a few we had not seen before. www.u2songs.com/news/ross_st...

Happy birthday Canada. No place I’d rather live. True North, strong and free. ❤️

Can you be any happier? 🐾

“You gotta kick at the dark till it bleeds daylight…” 🇨🇦

This is part of the research I have been doing for my second book about U2. Currently finishing the proposal for my editor.

Marc Garneau inspired me. In 1984 he was the first Canadian in space at a time when my head was in the stars. He has an honorary degree from TUNS, where I studied Engineering, a career path he helped lead me to. I also got to meet him there in 90s.

Popped up in my memories today. Daniel Lanois certainly spoiled me. He was very surprised to see the “Falling at your Feet” single from the Netherlands. Was showing it off to his team. Think it may have been the first time he saw a copy of it. ❤️

No desire to watch Joe Rogan interview anyone, not even U2. It could be my own mother, back from the dead, and I’d give it a pass. (No need to tell me how good it is, or anything else…and good on Bono if he reaches anyone…But Rogan is completely distasteful to me.)

How many U2 fans know where this was taken? 🧐

When Tony reached out today to ask if I wanted to see his photos, I saw the first one of Bono and Larry singing their smiles out…had to share. Best thing about doing this the last 30 years is fans letting you in to their experiences. ❤️

Doing some clean up today…and have this assortment of U2 related water bottles due for some dusting…

Happy birthday Bono!

youtu.be/y6wLcx7AkRM?... Latest musical obsession…

I’ve kind of left Twitter. But haven’t fully embraced here yet. Kind of hesitant to sink much time in setting up a new home…

One last day until this election in Canada is over. Hoping that’s it for a while. Municipal, Provincial, Federal elections all within six months, plus the chaos from the US. Tired of it. 🇨🇦

Bunny infestation at my hotel in Dundalk last week! Happy Easter!

Set list for Gavin’s Dublin show at Vicar Street made it home with me. Glitter? Not so much. :)

This was my eleventh Canadian election, yet it felt like the most important one ever with what is going on to the South of us. #Voted

Gavin Friday Vicar Street, Dublin April 10, 2025 “Ecce Homo” hasn’t left my head since it came out, the album is just amazing. The shows were just incredible. What a performer.

Temple Bar in Dublin at night. Not a person in sight.

Thanks again @rockyo.bsky.social was lovely to get a chance to say hello the other night!

A few rectangles from my day.

Been working on this in the background for a couple of months now…really really enjoy the Re-Assemble album and it felt like it should get done…

I could not resist…🩷🩵

Flag day today in Canada. 60 years of the maple leaf. Vive La Canada! 🇨🇦

Layers of paint from the old Windmill Lane in Dublin. So many layers. #U2

In response to the American tariffs, I have directed government and crown agencies to exclude US suppliers from any new purchasing or procurement agreements. It’s just one of the actions we are taking to prioritize Canada first.

From @timhoustonns (on ig) — I just wrapped up a call with the Premiers and the Prime Minister to discuss the tariff threat from the US administration. Canada is ready to respond.

What time is the Super Bowl? Asking for a frienemy named Doug who is gonna turn off the lights.

Supper made with ingredients from Mexico and Canada…🍁

Never thought I’d shovel the backyard, but man he loves having a maze to run around in come winter.
