Question: What Irish rock band from Dublin formed in 1976 also participated in Folkways: The Original Vision in 1989 as a way to raise funds?

The Programme for Belize is the first project undertaken by the World Land Trust, in 1989.  The goal of the project was to purchase and protect tropical rainforests in Belize to prevent them being sold and cleared to make way for ranching.  The project (and also the Trust) was launched at the London Butterfly House in May 1989.  The famous naturalists Gerald Durrell and his wife Lee Durrell were guests of honour, and also visited Belize in 1989 to help with in-situ conservation efforts there.  By 1996, more than 250000 acre of land had been purchased and was under the ownership and protection of PfB.  The World Land Trust then initiated Friends of Belize to help raise funds to cover costs of continuing protection of the purchased lands, as well as to aid in-situ conservation efforts.  Since 2006 World Land Trust has organised regular symposia for the decision-makers of their project partners, and in 2008 PfB hosted the event at their La Milpa ecolodge.  The Managing Director of PfB has attended subsequent symposia held in Brazil, Netherlands and the UK. <SEP> LiR is an Irish rock band.  Their sound has been described as "a fusion of funky progressive rock, folky mysticism and savvy pop".  The band formed in the late 1980s in Dublin, firstly under the name The Spontaneous Frogs, then Uproar.  They released their first EP, 'All Machines Hum in A', in 1992.  In 1993, they released their first LP, 'Magico Magico!'  under the label Velo Records (Velo was an Irish Indie) in Ireland.  In 1994, they re-released 'Magico Magico!'  to the US, under the independent record label What Are Records?  (W.A.R.?) .  The new version of the album saw a revision to the track listing.  LiR would release their second album, 'Nest', exclusively with W.A.R.? , the following year, in 1995.  Around this time, they were notorious for playing constant live shows in Whelan's Bar, on Wexford Street in Dublin.  The support act was regularly by another Dublin band called Dragonfly (the lead guitarist of Dragonfly later became LiR's second guitarist, after the departure of keyboardist David Hopkins).  The LiR song 'Temple Child' appeared on the What Are Records?  "Ammunition" compilation album, a music sampler of various independent artists.  In 1997 the band appeared on the soundtrack for the movie "I Went Down", with the song 'There Are More Things'. <SEP>  The group consists of Bono (lead vocals and rhythm guitar), the Edge (lead guitar, keyboards, and backing vocals), Adam Clayton (bass guitar), and Larry Mullen Jr. (drums and percussion).  Initially rooted in post-punk, U2's musical style evolved throughout their career, yet has maintained an anthemic sound built on Bono's expressive vocals and the Edge's effects-based guitar textures.  Their lyrics, often embellished with spiritual imagery, focus on personal and sociopolitical themes. U2 are an Irish rock band from Dublin formed in 1976.  Popular for their live performances, the group have staged several ambitious and elaborate tours over their career. <SEP>  Funds were raised for the acquisition of the label to be established as a non-profit entity in conjunction with the Smithsonian Institution by the collaborative recording A Vision Shared: A Tribute to Woody Guthrie and Lead Belly (Columbia Records, 1988) by artists such as Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, and U2.  was digitally remastered and re-released in 2005 by Folkways Records.
