Spider-Man spins new web with jazz hands

My friend LJ and I were talking about U2 the other day. Not an unusual conversation considering the biggest band on earth is also my favorite band on earth. We were talking about songs like "With or Without You" and "Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" and the emotion these songs carry.

We decided that some songs have a time and place. These U2 favorites were meant for night listening. Preferably in a car, with the windows rolled down on a country road.

While we enjoy our "Joshua Tree," Bono and his band mates are up to something we haven't seen from them before -- a musical. Bono has agreed to write the music and lyrics for "Spider-Man" on Broadway.

If anyone believes in Bono, it's me. What other musician can try to save the world and write hit songs simultaneously? Let's just hope Spider-Man is a good tap dancer.
