YOU KNOW I BELIEVE IT

 

[Matthew_Page2000]

Wow! I haven't seen such dominance since U2 swept the awards in '92. That year U2's popularity with Rolling Stone readers and critics was so overwhelming that U2 won damn near EVERYTHING. Best tour AND Worst Tour for ZooTv, etc.

Quick question...U2 apparently dominated the Rolling Stone readers picks this year. We know they swept the awards in '92 and '88-89. Has any band ever had this sort of stretch of dominace in the Rolling Stone polls?

How incredible!!!!

[sulawesigirl4]

Wow. Like I said yesterday...dontcha just love these days when our band is in the news and being acclaimed!

Hope the risk of overexposure does not become realized tho...

*has nightmares of a repeat of Rattle and Hum-like backlash*

Which cover is on the mag, so those of us who have to buy it on the stands can know to pick it up?

[DebbieSG]

if that isn't success, to be chosen best by general music fans...and last year at the grammies they were referring to U2 as "that band from the 80's"

I'm so happy for the band, whoohoo! Way to go! I know there's lots more to come, too!

Great time to be a fan, for sure!

Maybe they'll get the cover once Rolling Stones fills its yearly quota on the half-naked young women that often have NOTHING to do with music.
