No Bonnie, if you take out the years where they were middling, the years where released crap and the years where they did fuck all, I think it comes down to about 21 and half years of greatness.
This IS the 30th anniversary of the first commercial release, U2:3.
It's been 33 years since the band formed, 31 since they took the name U2, 30 since their first single, and 29 since their first album.
I was only around 1
but I already knew it: I was born to love you, U2!!! for sure - forever and ever!!!!!!!!!
Maybe you should have called yourself U2Fanatic4Ever?
