I was reminded of this exchange when I saw the tsunami of nonsense in the media, social and otherwise, about U2's latest ventures. Even David Letterman, a brilliant interviewer, has become a U2 media groupie, hyping their latest album and forthcoming tour.  Frankly, when I read a headline that quotes The Edge as saying U2 choose to do a residency at the Sphere in Las Vegas because the venus is "state of the art," I so want him to add, "and besides, we are making a bloody fortune to top up our 700 million, by not touring and insisting that if fans want to see us in 2023, they must come to see us in Vegas!"  So has U2, seemingly in its endless pursual of making money, finally sold out on their vision? Or was making money their vision?
