No.

 

[coolian2]

I'm officially going to KILL BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN.

i thought i could actually hear you combust and swoon when he teabagged the camera.

 

[Angela Harlem]

ok, wait a sec... (again)

 

[bono_212]

First of all, Axver, please, laugh your ass off as I present the setlist:

1) TENTH AVENUE FREEZE OUT
2) Born to Run
3) Working on a Dream/Glory Days


now, the worst part about him playing Glory Days to me was that it's a baseball song, and I will always love baseball 2383285x more than football. But...it only got worse. he changed the lyrics so they were football centric. I've been saying for months I'd hunt him down if he did that.

So would the U2 equivalent be like Bono changing the lyrics to SBS so they'd be about Darfur?

 

[Angela Harlem]

:joy:

 

[Axver]

NO. FUCKING. WAY.

Possibly.

Take something you love. Got it in your head? Now imagine one of your favorite artists sang a song about it. Now pretend that that artist changed the lyrics to something you did NOT love. Betrayal.

Also, Ian, sweet photo.

 

[phillyfan26]

Yeah, in Glory Days, he changed "baseball player" to "football player" and "throw that speed ball by you, make you look like a fool, boy" to "throw that Hail Mary (self-deprecating chuckle)."

Ax! I was dying. DYING. I couldn't even quite explain to my aunt why it was so funny. I could barely breathe!

Oh I couldn't hear Radio Nowhere! Kick ass!

 

[bono_212]

For the record, the fact that Pender and La Bamba were there more than made up for the Glory Days thing though.

LA BAMBA

so you're pissed and resentful and think he has sold out?

Hmm, well I loved the problems in Northern Ireland and I despise what's going in in Darfur... yes, I understand exactly!

I don't mean to sound upset, overall the performance was amazing but, I had been dreading this possiblity since the beginning. Couldn't believe it actually happened.

 

[Angela Harlem]

No.

ok.

I count him yelling "IS THERE ANYBODY ALIVE OUT THERE?" as a Radio Nowhere snippet. We're breaking this shit down, Axver style.

Nevermind, it's not a big deal.

 

[The Sad Punk]

ok.

What did I tell you!

Oh man, that's brilliant. Are U2 now going to play The Refugee at the Grammys?

these days I'd agree. Though, all those times he yelled that before Radio Nowhere existed can just be precognative snippets I guess

WHO THE FUCK KNOWS NOW?!?!!?!?! l NOW BELIEVE THAT ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE!!!!!

 

[bono_212]

oK, I need to get back to the game. Just using my uncle's comp to capture the moment.

 

[The Sad Punk]

I APPROVE.
