St. Patrick's Day, U2, & The Unforgettable Fire

from Rhythm on the Rocks

Frizz and Bob celebrate St. Patrick's Day by diving into the early career of the iconic Irish rock band, U2, and the album that changed their sound forever: The Unforgettable Fire. Join us as Frizz drinks Writers Tears Copper Pot Irish Whiskey and Bob drinks Rare Hare Lucky Bastard 30 Year Old as we discuss how U2 went from a Dublin kitchen to a multi album deal on Island Records in just 4 short years. We see them grow from post-punk into arena rock titans before making the decision to completely reinvent their sound with producer Brian Eno. We also learn who just might be Bob's least favorite band ever.
