Bono, from U2, is just full of surprises. In an upcoming broadcast on BBC Radio, on May 13th, Bono will be reading a poem he wrote about Elvis Presley more than 10 years ago. Bono is a huge Elvis fan and truly realizes what a groundbreaker Elvis was in his time. Like many, Bono was influenced by Elvis as a child. In his poem he talks about Elvis’ early years as a truck driver and how he basically revolutionized the music world. In his poem he says, “Elvis was made by America so America could remake itself”, he also writes, “Elvis woke up my heart”. The poem seems really incredible and a wonderful way to honor Elvis during the poetry season on the BBC. It has taken a while to figure out the best venue for the poem and how to present it to people and that is one of the reasons it has basically sat on a shelf for all these years. Along with the poem there will be a 15 minute presentation surrounding it that will include some of Elvis’ music along with other Elvis information to compliment the poem.

As of today it seems a bit unclear if David Beckham will be back in Los Angeles playing for the Galaxy or staying in Milan to play soccer. If David had it his way, he would be staying in Milan but unfortunately it is not his choice.  David has been on loan playing for the Italy’s AC Milan team. He has already played seven games for them and would like to continue playing the European circuit. In fact he has even commented that it would be “difficult” and “awkward” to go back to play for the Galaxy since he has made his feelings so well known.  On the other hand he says should he have to return to his LA team he would “be professional and do what he needs to do”.
