U2 Can See U2… For Now *Update 1*

For anyone who remembers the U2 tour back in … what? … 1980, that blog headline will bring back memories. Yet now seems like a good time to appropriate it.

Since the middle of last year I’ve been aware of a pseudo-virtual tribute band called “U2 in SL” (I believe I read that they changed their name somewhere along the line and added “in SL” to avoid confusion). I’ve not bothered blogging about it because, to be honest, I just didn’t feel like it. However, what’s nice about having a new set of eyes inside Second Life – in the person of Ilya Vedrashko of the Brands In Games blog – is that what’s old is new again.

It now appears that a recent post over on Brands In Games (Link) has gotten some attention as it’s been picked up by Clickable Culture (Link) , Warcry (Link), Make: (Link) and no doubt others as well. I’m not especially interested in doing anything more than pointing this out, so I’ll leave it at that and only say that I’ll update this post with links as I find them.
