Hi everyone,
I'm so happy I found this forum, and I'd like to take this opportunity to introduce myself!
U2 used to be one of the two bands in the world I really couldn't stand (the other one being Red Hot Chili Peppers). Seeing "Sunday Bloody Sunday" on MTV changed that, and I basically became a U2 fan overnight in the spring of 1993, at the age of 16. U2 were my everything for the three years that followed.
Despite moving on to other artists at the end of the 90's, I remained a U2 fan, although not as obsessed as I used to be. Very recently, I've rediscovered some "old favorites", U2 included. I think it's really fantastic the way in which it's possible to find your way back to music that you have so many wonderful memories to, discovering the newer albums (mainly How To Dismantle an Atomic Bomb in the U2 case) while you're at it.
I'd say I'm a complete nutcase when it comes to U2 right now. I feel like I'm 16 again, lol...
Music is my main interest in life. Some of my other favorites throughout the years include Bruce Springsteen, Genesis, Peter Gabriel, Phil Collins, Sting, Sakis Rouvas, Mike & The Mechanics, Shania Twain, Midnight Oil, Daniel Lanois, Nils Lofgren, Manic Street Preechers, Oasis, Gavin DeGraw, Toto, and Amanda Marshall. Check out my last.fm profile if you want to check out your musical compatibility with me.
Right now I'm looking forward to the new album (like everyone else here, I suppose), and praying I'll be able to catch U2 on tour soon.
See you around!
All the best, Malin
