    "comment": "This album was not named after a meeting room in an Arizona hotel. Nope. \n==\naccording to the internets\n\nU2 was traveling through the Mojave Desert for a photoshoot when their photographer told them of the significance of Joshua Trees. The band liked the starkness of a single tree set in the desert for the imagery of the album and decided to name the album after the tree as well.\n\nAccording to Wikipedia, there is a theory that Mormon settlers name the trees after Joshua, as the branches look like extended arms and the leaves resemble a beard. There is no substantial evidence on that naming convention, however. But apparently Bono did like the tale enough to want to name the album The Joshua Tree.",
