How big a U2 fan you are

[AcrobatMan]

Intended primarily for JB&C audience

I was just wondering..

Please rate on this scale

Hardcore fanatic ( 9-10)
huge fan(8-9)
big fan(7-8)
fan(6-7)
casual fan(5-6)
dont mind listening to U2(1-5)
hate U2 (0)

*wish I could make a poll*

For Mod - Please keep it here for a week after which it "could" be shifted to EYKIW - for EYKIW people.


I would be "big fan" ( 7.8 out of 10 of Acrobat Index).

 

[Aardvark747]

Fanatic (9-10)

(one of those sad ppl that never shuts up about them i'm afraid!)

 

[Tania]

Fanatic 9-10

 

[FizzingWhizzbees]

probably about 2 or 3 now. i still enjoy listening to some of the older stuff but the last album did nothing for me and i'm absolutely furious at the way the band have treated their fans over the tour - i've lost a lot of respect for them over this.

 

[yimou]

7

 

[alia612]

Probably 7 right now. I don't listen to them much, but I still, you know, acknowledge how good they are, and I still like them a lot.

 

[AcrobatMan]

Probably 7 right now. I don't listen to them much, but I still, you know, acknowledge how good they are, and I still like them a lot.

very much like me

 

[Yahweh_OMG]

fanatic....(9-10)

my friends are either getting fanatics as well (most of them), either hate me for talking about them all the time.....

 

[meegannie]

It's hard to say really....most non-U2 fans would say I'm an 8 or 9, but U2 fans would probably say I'm a 3 or 4.

 

[Palace_Hero]

8, I love U2 with all my heart but I don't have the resources to be a true fanatic. Otherwise I would be.

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

right now I am a fan (6-7).

 

[RademR]

i think i was around a 7-8 but after following all the hype in to this new album and getting ready for the tour, im way into the 9-10 range.

 

[ZeroDude]

7 and a half my favorite band thats all

 

[Rono]

7-8

 

[beau2ifulday]

7-8. I buy all the music and merchandise, I listen to the music, I talk the talk....

I guess it's not 9 because i'm not one of those fans who worships and praises every single thing U2 does.

 

[sallycinnamon78]

seven and six eighths

 

[u2valleygirl]

I used to be a 10, but after this latest thing with the tickets I would say I'm an 8. I am always reminding myself that U2 is not the only band in the world and there is a lot of great music out there.

 

[Muggsy]

I used to be a fanatic... but i don't know what happened...

 

[IWasBored]

i like them, i've got all the albums and a fair number of singles and bootlegs, i know the words to nearly all the songs, and i'm looking forward to being able to see them live in may.

with the exception of the week when htdaab was leaked and the week when it actually came out, i haven't really listened to them in a couple years. i'm still u2-ed out from my 2 year long listening binge when i first decided i really liked them.

regular fan, i guess. they'd make my top 10 all-time favorite band list, but these days they'd have a hard time fighting for a spot in the top 5.

 

[carrieluvv]

i dont have enough money to a be a fanatic...i wont commit to go to a show the way i had a few years back, i dont even go out.. to bars.....im really a dud

i buy every major albumn but not every single. ( i almost typed singer....hm...i wish I could buy him )

i love HTDAAB....it took a couple listens to grow on me ...
its a really emotional albumn...its hard to listen to day after day so i dont.
I can't

one other thing that you may have considered in your survey is that fan who will go out and do whatever charitable causes that are listed....this is the fan's fan...the one who goes out for greenpeace and all those other things listed on the cd booklets.
i mean not just send a check....but shows initiative

im a high 6 or maybe a 7,
they are still my favorite band

 

[Princey]

8. I dont have the money to be a true fanatic. Im only on student wages!!

[tiny dancer]

Fanatic (9-10)

(one of those sad ppl that never shuts up about them i'm afraid!)

Same here too!

 

[diamond]

i only like em a tiny bit

db9

 

[bayernfc]

I guess 5-6... I'm a big fan but in the past two years I got interested in so many different bands (mainly thanks to B&C) that I don't listen to them as much as I used to.

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

there, there's now a poll!

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

I am changing my vote to "I don't mind listening to U2".

 

[IWasBored]

i voted i don't mind listening to them, because it's the most accurate, even though i do consider myself a fan.

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

i'm a seven, i guess. i haven't decided though if that puts me in the big fan or fan category, since they all overlap.

 

[Jack In The Box]

I'm a 7 or 8... something like that
