MERGED-->All U2 on SNL Discussion 2b

[Axver]

HERE WE GO!!!

 

[riderka]

Whoooo hoooooooooooooooooooo finallyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

 

[Shade]

Ouch. The band was rocking, but Bono wasn't ready for this.

 

[sindaddy]

was that another Beatles reference? Dont want to give too much away for those with teh delay.

 

[Queen Bee]

Finally! Vertigo!

 

[mikal]

gorman, i'm going to start a thread in this forum for the official mp3's, just to separate the discussion and the mp3 sharing.

 

[U2_Neat]

FUCK!!!! THIS IS HARD ROCK!!!

 

[sortofhomecoming]

Why can't they just let them play two in a row!!! Now we have to sit through the crap skits again.

 

[Phalanx]

Not Bono's best performance by far. He was weak.

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

hell yeah! bono had a straight jacket moment towards the end!!

That kind of annoyed me, but overall the entire performance was kickass!

 

[elfyx]

Bono seemed nervous....

yeah.. they are still rpetty rough, but i can see improvement. bono's voice is sharp

 

[JOFO]

the green bono guitar was there....so either ABOY or COBL

 

[pax]

I thought Bono sounded good. But was anyone else surprised that the hottest-looking one of the bunch was...ADAM?!

And also...did Bono grab Adam's ass or did it just look that way? NOT that I'd have blamed him. Mrrrowwww.

 

[sindaddy]

Weekend Update is usually the best part of the show.

 

[If you shout...]

I dunno'...that was a little less than I'd hoped for. The song itself was pretty solid, but Bono looked like a fool for most of it--he was shot poorly, yes, but he wasn't doing much to help. Adam also looked a little bit...dead...? Ha ha ha.

Well, I liked the way it sounded and I really liked Bono's voice; I was just more than underwhelmed with his "Live, live, live" confused mumbling (much like his "One, one, one," shit before the Radio 1 stuff). His goofy-as-hell posturing is also a little...off. It plays a LOT better on stage in an arena/stadium than it does in front of a few hundred people and on a TV screen, at home...

Now let's just see what they play next...!

 

[RademR]

pretty good performance. Wonder what they are playing next?

 

[anitram]

Adam looked amazing. His jacket was way nicer than Bono's and he just looked like he was smokin'. Mmm, Adam.

 

[Phalanx]

Bono sounded good? Really??

 

[trevster2k]

Relax folks, still 5 months to get tight again. Vertigo is a tough song to sing live so good job Bono.Still a rocking performance though!

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

Pax, they all looked (I would say another word, but we're not in PLEBA, heh).

 

[JOFO]

that was a great performance.
