The emergence of twin super bands: UPlay and Radio2

[gvox]

I think this is an idea that merits serious discussion, given that it's patently obvious that there is trouble in the U2 camp (I mean, there must be, what with this delay and all...).

Solution:

Bono and Edge take over the helm in Coldplay, new band name UPlay

Adam and Larry merge with Thom Yorke and Radiohead becomes Radio2

World peace ensues.



















Discuss.

If we get new material I'm game. Can we stop Thom Yorke from singing? Kill 2 birds with one stone?

 

[gvox]

Well Yorke incites less hateful rioting than Chris Martin, so it was the lesser of two evils.

Yeah, let's let Adam or Larry be lead singer.

 

[scottyT]

Can the first band trade Chris Martin for Thom Yorke (the Yorke can be sent out for lunch and some beers on occasion and kept away from the Mic, Bono can sing) The second band now has a singer, Done.

 

[gvox]

Uh, no. The world needs only one Bono.

Besides, Yorke > Martin lyrically.

edit: If anything, Martin can be beer boy for Radio2 and drop the odd background falsetto.

I hate this idea so much, I want to see it happen.

This shit is some serious bullshit, Gabe.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Too late. The U2 related super-band has already been formed and it was formed almost two years ago. Bono christened the group UJam...

YouTube - UJAM: Pearl Jam with U2 (Bono&The Edge)

An album is in the works.

Sad Punk - ain't it grand?

GAF - unless you're insinuating Vedder could outsing Yorke any day, your suggestion has little chance of materializing.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

I am insinuating that Vedder can outsing Yorke.

Vedder would also kick Yorke's ass in a street-fight. And a pie-eating contest.

Right on all three.

 

[The Sad Punk]

I've used the joke for Kate Moss before, but I'm pretty sure that Thom Yorke can't eat either, so Eddie would win by default.

Sad Punk - ain't it grand?

But it's too waaaacky!

 

[gvox]

This thing isn't turning out as planned.

Where all the Radiohead fans at?!1!!11

Y'all is just fuckin with me, right?

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

Radiohead fans don't come to EYKIW

 

[Zoots]

Radiohead fans don't come to EYKIW

so true!

UJam > UPlay

 

[gvox]

Uh, so you'd rather Bono be the one to disappear into a redundant oblivion? I don't care who else goes where, but that's not on the table. He either fronts UPLay or Radio2.

 

[Zoots]

Automatic Baby

 

[Galeongirl]

Uh, as long as this means we won't hear Chris Martin sing ever again, DEAL!

 

[gvox]

Wrong board, gg.
