From the last thread ...

Popmart was very attractive to me as a U2 fan initially. Likewise with Zoo TV. It's quite easy to get infatuated with them, and then later you think... wait, shit.

Also, JT is up too high. I do agree that Vertigo wasn't a bad tour, though - I don't understand those saying it was too similar to Elevation. Just because they both supported rubbish albums doesn't mean they were the same.

I don't think I was ever that attracted to ZooTV. Maybe in the earlier fan stage. I think I liked the whole impressive stage setup. Kind of still do. But the characters? The painful making-a-point-instead-of-playing-good music? The static sets? The Greatest Hits nature of the sets? Ugh.

Psh, the only spot for JT is second. Great setlist variety for the most part, great playing ... OK, Bono was a knob, but he was on every tour. And I don't see the Elevation/Vertigo comparisons either. I mean, for one thing, the band didn't sound 80 years old on the Vertigo Tour.

:lol: Yeah, I reckon we can do it. Maybe we could, uh, go to somewhere important to me or something, like we did with Ax.

You want some Minlaton lovin' from the Superthread?
 
Coffin Bay, eh? I'll remember that, Bonnie.

ETA: Whoops, forgot to quote her post.

I honestly only watch Sydney for the moment where Adam gets startled by a pyrotechnic.
 
He was definitely out of line with the 'idiots' thing, and I can't say I subscribe to the fan membership of that particular poster, but I can see where he's coming from - and by that, I mean the defensive, since that's where I'm often on.

Although that's usually because I'm initially on the offensive.


Well I do see what he's coming from yes, but in this case he's totally out of line with the insults. Yes, sometimes you have to defend yourself against the popular opionion, I usually have to do that too, but seriously, call people idiots? Way to go.

Yeah, as I became more of a fan, I began to lose interest. Seemed like a you saw one concert, you saw them all, kind of thing.

I guess so, but not to get Peterrrrrrrrr here, but Bono sounded wrecked for a lot of it. Props to the rest, though. Maybe I just want TUF to be there. Invisible ranking for COH? Sure, pretty static setlists, but they sounded great, there was a sense of novelty, and it was 1986!

Nah, Coffin Bay. ;) We can go to Minlaton some other time, when I have to make a thread and I'm too bored or uninspired to check the list.

I watch it for Mysterious Ways, Dirty Day, Lemon and the fact that Bono looks particularly decrepit. They should have cleaned up Adelaide and released that as a super sexy special edition disc - the setlist is about fucking the same for whatever reason, but it's a lot more fun, also I'm not sure why, but I just get this sense that they're in a way more awesome place.
 
I have to confess I've only watched my U2 dvds once.. :uhoh: and that I own plenty of other dvds I haven't even watched yet.

I need to watch Brokeback mountain sometime.
 
Guys.. I just realised something...

I was online all day yesterday since I had the day off... and today I'm done early..

and some days I get on in the early morning, some in the evening.

And you know what they have in common?

A certain obsessed PLEBAn is ALWAYS there at the times I'm online, perhaps even longer.

Back in the day, I watched my U2 DVDs a lot. Now ... OK, I've played UABRS and JT Paris a bit, but anything else? I have mint fucking copies of Vertigo Chicago and Vertigo Milan because I can't be arsed to watch them. I've seen most of them elsewhere, and the start of ISHFWILF in Milan put me off ever putting my own copy in the DVD player and wasting an hour of my life.

Honestly Milan is a good gig. Besides some cringeworthy moments it's pretty damn decent.
You should only watch Chicago if you are reallly really bored and sick and really need something to stay alive.

Oh yeah, as you know I've listened to every one of the 157 ZooTV gigs that has a bootleg, and besides a couple of noteworthy changes, it's mostly a "heard one, heard them all" scenario. Don't know how people could see heaps of shows, unless they're the kind of loon who's more interested in staring at leather pants than listening to the goddamn music I mean isn't that what it's all about for fuck's sake.

I've always thought Bono was nearing his peak on JT, with the peak obviously on Lovetown. He had a more powerful voice than on previous tours at any rate. And I've never considered COH to be an actual tour. Couldn't care less about it, to be honest. Hits and covers? Snooze. I suppose if I had to rate it, it'd go in the daylight between #7 and #8.

Ahh, yeah, saw your Coffin Bay post just after I made my one mentioning Minlaton.

Bono's drivel over the ISHFWILF intro kind of made me want to strangle him, hence my reluctance to waste my time. Plus they cut The Electric Co. That should be a crime.

At least Chicago has TEC and ACD/ITH (I can just close my eyes and pretend Bono's NOT acting like a cat). Though the second encore is fucking tedious (OOTS and Yahweh?!), and then of course Miracle Drug/SYCMIOYO blow and there's the One speech and ... yeah I think I'll take your advice.

Doesn't she live in Austria or something? Not too far away from you. Might explain things a little.
 
The point of seeing them live several times, imo, is that they're better live than in the studio, and bootlegs don't hold a candle to the actual live performance.

Yea you're right. Tho I do like Miracle Drug, Boner ruins it live with his stupid nurse speech.
We need something next tour to stop him from speeching. How about a taser?

Doesn't she live in Austria or something? Not too far away from you. Might explain things a little.

She does. But that doesn't explain why she's online when I'm off, like, doesn't she have a job or so? I'm home early because I'm a student, if I had a normal job that wasn't in the weekend I'd be home way later. Like, around now or so!

I don't think it's worth paying $1,000 and queuing a cumulative 100 hours on hard concrete to hear the same setlist ten times.

But clearly some fans are over-obsessed.
 
Great, just great.

Now I get a cute little 12 year old brazilian who gets mad at me.

Damn, only a matter of time before the whole forum hates me!

:mac: Bitchin'!
