The big entertainment buzz this weekend surrounds the veteran Irish rock band U2 rockin' Soldier Field Saturday & Sunday for a pair of concerts kicking off the North American leg of their latest tour. Friday afternoon, Bono and the band paid a visit to the offices & studios of 93XRT at their current home inside NBC Tower downtown. The CBS Radio-owned progressive/classic rocker devoted its "Friday Feature" to U2, a day before the two concerts this weekend on the home field of Jay Cutler & the Chicago Bears. Also, Bono & the band did an exclusive interview with veteran nighttime host Tom Marker, morning man Lin Brehmer & longtime WXRT V.P. of Programming Norm Winer on the station late Friday afternoon.
