What Does a U2 Convention Look Like?

I’m writing this in Nashville where I’m attending my second music/broadcasting conference in as many weeks. I could just as well be in Cleveland for #U240Cleveland (i.e. U2’s 40th-anniversary convention in at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame).

So what kind of agenda might such an event have? Well, along with discussions of U2’s humanitarian work and concerns for social justice, there will be a, um, display of U2 fan tattoos.

Take a look at this lineup supplied by atU2.
