    Other Music Forum

    Of course you don't think it's buried. Otherwise, it wouldn't be that way. :shrug: My thought would be to swap the tech forum (which gets limited traffic) with the music forum (which, on topic, should receive more traffic).

    The Police reuniting for tour in '07 ???

    A US and European tour doesn't seem to include Canada. And, if The Police consider Toronto to be Canada, they should take a close look at the city where they are practicing right now. Also, The Police could perform outdoors. 80,000 fans at one show would not be out of reach for them, methinks.

    Other Music Forum

    right, I missed that forum. :p and this is my opinion: It seems like the forum/subforum has too tiny a description and it's buried too far inside the board structure. As if to imply: This forum is not important. Do not bother with this forum.

    Other Music Forum

    Having read the already closed topic about the AF subforum, and realizing that one of the reasons might be just because it's not about u2, and then also noting there are existing forums not related to u2 at all, I'm ready to suggest the board see a new forum for broader music interests/bands. A...

    Bono wouldn't make it thru American Idol

    Sadly, Bono wouldn't make it past the fourth show. No doubt, there would be a couple Christina Aguilera sound-alikes (minus the four octave range and infinite register) ready to move on...even the boys. Simon would say "your pitch is off and you have the lung capacity of a chain smoker"...

    Listening to Pop...

    Maybe U2 didn't really like how the POP tracks were mixed (?). In my opinion, POP isn't a groundbreaking, popular-music-altering, experience like Joshua Tree was in it's time time, but the song on POP were well written, and close listening proves the value of the songs in the overall catalog...

    World of Warcraft players?

    Sheesh, I come here to intentionally avoid games discussion and walk into this topic. :p Selling your WoW account, as far as I know, is in violation of the TOS you agree to when you rent it from Blizzard. As for WoW itself, I have friends who have been active player/testers since the Alpha...

    Eno / Rubin Comments in March issue of Q Mag

    ...but he didn't forget to mention it in an interview published in a major publication. Then again, if it doesn't bother U2 that he talked about it in the interview, then the mention shouldn't matter to anyone.

    Billy Corgan, producing U2?

    This doesn't make any sense because: Billy and Jimmy have already teamed up to reform the Smashing Pumpkins (haven't read word from D'Arcy or James yet and they probably won't come back). According to the official site, the Pumpkins are already in the studio recording and they recently...

    Question regarding cell phones

    The answer really depends on what you want to pay. If you buy an unlocked tri-band or quad-band cellphone, you should be able to use it anywhere in the world. However, it might still be wiser to use the same cell phone carrier (Cingular, t-mobile). Be aware of the contract you sign. If you...

    Any indication that

    opinion: The odds are that every member has visited here. However, like most people, u2 have interests beyond just music and they are more likely visit communities related to those "other" interests more than here. It's equally likely that they don't post much when visiting.

    Fuck re-recording Pop, tour Unforgettable Fire again

    nah, Rattle and Hum will always be the new Pop. :p case in point: it got skipped earlier in this thread when discussing a tri-album tour. :wink: I think one of the problems u2 would have with this idea is that they can't be on tour for 3 or 4 years- about how long it would take the band to...

    Is Bono hesistant to use his falsetto or losing it?

    (so......longwinded) Bono's voice isn't as clear as it was during the early eighties. Smoking and drink added a more breathy rugged sound to his pipes, and the sound was put to good use for the Joshua Tree and Rattle and Hum releases. In other words, his voice matured. Or, it was whiskey...

    Adapting speakers with red/black wire connection to pc?

    What you need is a "line in" to the boombox, but I don't see this feature mentioned anywhere in the manual. However, the speakers themselves are rated at a 6 Ohm load. You could purchase a small second hand stereo receiver to power these speakers and just be careful not to turn the volume...

    U2 is looking for a new producer...

    Now that's some funny stuff! :eeklaugh: Poor Alan Parsons.....*sighs*...but it's so true. So, which producer should be roasted next? Danger Mouse seems like a good target, but he's not been mentioned as a prospective producer....yet. :hmm:
