Re: flame away

ok, trying to figure out if you're totally being sarcastic but...

5. love The Refugee - especially lame ass Larry's drumming (just call him LAL)
7. seeing those trabants hanging from the rafters at RFK was like a freakin' epiphany - blew my mind - damn!

Axver has a deep seeded hatred of Achtung Baby and the Zoo tour, so I dont think it was sarcasm.

No, I'm not an artist. I just love everything about her.

When world events happen - I don't always right away think of how Bono is...

I think Heartland is one of the worst songs on Rattle & Hum
I actually really like Love Rescue Me (it's all in the lyrics, baby).

- my heart sings a little every time I hear this song

Saying that makes the Baby Liszt cry.

Is better than EVERYTHING on R&H.

Bono wanted inflatable clear huge lottery balls with a video image of him singing the song to flow through the audience while being played

what a weirdo.

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

I regularly bitch to my friends (who aren't U2 fans) that U2 lost their balls sometime around 1999.

1. Achtung Baby fucking sucks.
2. One fucking sucks.
3. Larry Mullen fucking sucks.
4. Passengers is U2's third or maybe even second best album.
5. The Refugee is a good song.
6. Where The Streets Have No Name is overplayed live.
7. ZooTV was U2's worst tour. Oh, and it fucking sucks.

Got to agree with 4 and 5

 

[thrillme]

I don't understand all the fuss about:

HTDAAB
Adam Clayton.

Well there is a certain photograph that some ladies fuss about.

 

[coolian2]

I like U2s music




Pretty revolutionary, huh?

do they really care about that, if they arent fans?

I like U2.com, the forum, way more than this forum. I just don't see the comraderie here, that I see over there.

If you're serious, you may have just convinced me to pay for a subscription.

From the looks of your avatar, you'll probably enjoy chatting with the Adam fans. And, I don't see a whole lot of knocking of the band member's forums the way PLEBA gets knocked here.

About the comraderie? I mean yes, there's always those that have given others problems, occasionally a flame war, but by and large, very enjoyable community. Some people know each other by first names. The Christmas/holiday card exchange was neat. The forum is a bit more structured in regards to the U2 specific content.

There was a member there who fell ill, passed away a couple months ago, and for awhile there was a stickied thread, for people to write their thoughts, prayers for the member. As silly as a forum on a website can be, it was one of those things that reminds you there's real people behind the posts.

The ZooTV CD is great.

I haven't really seen anything on this forum worth $12...well features that are free on U2.com, PM's, looking at other's profiles....unless Pleba became a paid part of the site.

For all the slagging U2.com and Zootopians get from some posters here, I'm not sure I've ever seen a stickied thread on this forum for well wishes to a member who was terminally ill. Perhaps this forum is too large, or not many here would discuss it if they were that ill.

Oh, and every top page of every forum had a banner with the name of the song U2 walked out on stage during the Vertigo tour.

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

No, but they can't get rid of me

But honestly, I do it sort of to prove to myself (and hopefully to them) that that's why they don't like U2, because they've mostly only been exposed to the castrated 00s U2.

I just think it's boring.










It needs some octave runs

 

[RedRocksU2]

I like Huey Lewis.

Hey man - it's hip to be square.

i think Slane SBS is better than Rattle and Hum SBS

 

[craigp]

i like george bush singing sbs and have it on my ipod

 

[kingofsorrow]

tonight i finally heard the soundtrack to Million Dollar Hotel for the first time. and i liked it.

 

[MrBrau1]

good to see a piece o shit topic is garnering most of the attention on this forum.

I'm dead serious.

WOH-WOAH, Larry was once not totally dull!

The stage setup was pretty neat. Shame the music and especially the setlists thoroughly stank.

I hate it when you try to be all elusive and can't just say what you mean.

 

[coolian2]

I don't get the fuss about Stateless
I like When I Look At The World

I'm just too obscure for Interference.

(That actually was a really vague joke that no-one will find funny. Shame no-one here is familiar with The Verlaines' Death And The Maiden.)
