From the (Crimson) Sky Down and into the U2 MATRIX

Before people got to see the first MATRIX movie in 1999, U2 transitioned into their cyberpunk ZOO TV entertainment phase. https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1993-09-12-tm-34172-story.html , 
"the tour began in Lakeland, Florida, on 29 February 1992 and ended in Tokyo, Japan, on 10 December 1993."

We’re free to fly the crimson sky...

William Gibson has had some key influence for U2 over the years.
Thus, its not surprising that there was some collaboration.


William_Gibson was born on March 17, 1948. Is it that surprising that a famous band from Ireland would eventually cross paths with him? http://people.loyno.edu/~hobbs/bib/wgibson.htm

Of course 1992-2-29 was a leap-year and that was perfect for U2 to symbolically venture down The_Rabbit hole.

"U2 started the Zoo Tv Tour on February 29, 1992 with a sold out concert with a total of 7,400 people."

There is a lot of synchronicity between, W.Gibson, U2 and The_Matrix, that should be revealed.
