PalacePrincess Posted March 7, 2005 Report Share Posted March 7, 2005 i wonder if paul martin likes ween....and kitchener.... U2 adds Ottawa to "Vertigo" tour after Prime Minister Paul Martin's call Bono waves in this recent file photo. (AP File/Kevork Djansezian) OTTAWA (CP) - You too could get U2 to play your town, if you were PM. Irish superstars U2 have added Ottawa to their worldwide "Vertigo" tour after a phone call by Prime Minister Paul Martin to lead singer Bono. The two have been on first-name basis since Martin cut debts owed to Canada by Third World countries when he was Liberal finance minister. Bono is a strong campaigner for debt relief. Radio station BOB-FM lobbied Martin last month to get U2 to play Ottawa and promised to rename itself PAUL-FM for a day if he was successful. The Prime Minister's Office says Bono just happened to have called Martin prior to the station's campaign. Martin returned the call and told Bono about the drive to get the band to Ottawa, said Martin spokeswoman Melanie Gruer. "Another promise made, another promise kept," Gruer joked, echoing the Liberal slogan on the federal budget heard repeatedly at the Liberal convention last weekend. U2 added 33 cities to the tour Sunday, including Ottawa, which it will play Nov. 25 - the station plans to call itself PAUL-FM on that day. The band will also play Vancouver, Toronto and Montreal before the year is out. Gruer said Bono told the prime minister the band really likes Ottawa and was eager to add it to the tour. Martin's office says he hopes to attend the Ottawa concert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
