   >>why the hell is Bono on this list.
 
The Sunday afternoon thing is partially to link Obama to the whole MLK and civil rights dealie.  And Bono wrote that song.

Still no announcement on the Neighborhood Ball.  Possibly, longer music sets and fewer speeches

But don't expect a greatest-hits concert Sunday, the concert's producers said. The 90-minute show, which will begin at 2 p.m. and which will be shown that evening in a special free broadcast on HBO, will consist mainly of performers covering songs that have historical resonance or connect to the theme of the concert, dubbed "We Are One."

Ugh, I was hoping to see "Single Ladies" at the Lincoln Memorial.

Would you put up with all the BS you'd undoubtedly have to put up with in order to see it if it is happening?


yeah unlike say heading to new york city. now thats much simpler than walking 15 blocks.

don't be such a downer man.. we know you're fleeing but leave us to enjoy our inauguration..thank you very much.

Hey I'm just as excited about this inauguration as anyone else. I just have a lower tolerance for huge throngs of people than most.

U2 join a stellar line up of artists at The Lincoln Memorial in Washington this Sunday for 'We Are One: The Obama Inaugural Celebration'. Don't miss it. It's open to the public and aired on HBO.

Perfect timing for a free HBO Preview Weekend (this is true for DirecTV customers at least, I can't speak for the rest of your carriers).
