first up- Bono was attending Alicia Keys wedding this past weekend. Alicia married Swizz Beatz and was not in New York as reported by others.

Sunday night  the whole band got together onfor rehearsals — and, best of all for fans around the world, they rehearsed outside at Olympic Stadium rather than indoors at the Olympic Sports Hall. Other than Bono’s arrival, the two biggest pieces of news are probably these:

Reports coming in from U2 Place and U2 Itlatia suggesting a new song was rehearsed.  Also the following Songs

  One Day Like This (cover: Elbow)> Beautiful Day
- Magnificent
- Soon> Moment of Surrender
- New Year’s Day
- Hold Me Thrill Me Kiss Me Kill Me
- Get On Your Boots

A second rehearsal included the following

 Beautiful Day
- Get On Your Boots
- Mysterious Ways
- I Still Have not Found What I’m Looking For
- Many River to Cross (snippet) ( Possible New Song)
- Miss Sarajevo
