It’s only a matter of time before another superstar artist follows Madonna’s footsteps to a Live Nation deal, but it won’t be U2. At least, not anytime soon. In a story published earlier today, Fox News columnist Roger Friedman reported that the band was in talks with the concert industry’s biggest player and could walk away from their 28-year relationship with Universal (the band was first signed to Uni-owned Island Records in 1980; Interscope came into the picture with 2000’s All That You Can’t Leave Behind). But in a statement to EW.com, U2 manager Paul McGuinness says, “This is untrue. As I said in my MIDEM speech, U2 has an excellent relationship with Universal. We have recently re-licensed both masters and copyrights to them.” Which means Universal will be moving catalog, like the recently-remastered The Joshua Tree, for many years to come. But what of future studio projects? “The band re-signed last year,” a label insider says. “They have a good four albums left, so they’re not going anywhere.”
U2 still lovin' Universal, manager says

Forget about Bono and U-2 they both are so sorry groups that they belong to Bill Gates puppet parada and not worth hearing!
I like sandwiches
Dodacrazy..your taste in music blows,U2 rules…..so go take a long walk off a short pier
Anyone who reads Roger Friedman knows that he is an expert in Michael Jackson and that’s it as far as music is concerned, lol. So I think U2 is staying where they are now.
Roger Friedman is the biggest idiot that writes for entertainment. His colums include nothing but lies, slander, and factual errors. I’m amazed Fox gives him space to write his psychobabble. Then again, it is Fox Noise.
Roger Friedman is a shameless hack. He should go back to how bankrupt Michael Jackson is this week or who Paris Hilton is screwing and leave U2 news to real music journalists.
