Mildly Amusing Placement of FU and U2 Posters
Am I the only one that finds the placement of the above U2 poster with an upcoming movie kind of funny but not in a haha kind of way? More like hmmm, let’s try really hard making an association, any association. Considering how many times I’ve seen those two posters side by side outside I’m thinking it’s intentional. Any thoughts?
And here’s something else to ponder on a Saturday morning since I’ve already started a post on U2. A friend passed me on a link to consider how the new album art kind of looks like a photograph from Sugimoto.
UPDATE (Sunday January 25, 2009): Further reading from the below comment – the Guardian wrote U2′s new album cover is a ‘rip-off’

thanks for the fyi O
apparently sugimoto and Bono had kind of creative bond. sugimoto gave bono photo, bono gave sugimoto song. i think this if the first time sugimoto has talked about the deal:
