    2010 Leg Announcement on u2.com now - TOUR DATES

    They could probably sell out 2 nights at Gillette again next year. Not sure that would be the case in a market like Boise.

    Rose Bowl Show to be filmed for DVD + Webcast

    I don't think a DVD necessarily captures crowd energy anyway. People seem to think Boston was lame, and I disagree (having been in attendance). Yes, they had the sit-down protest in the pit, but few in the arena noticed (I didn't). Of the 40+ shows I've seen around the globe, that concert is...

    FINALLY! Magnificent opens Foxboro 2!

    Just got back from the show... Agree with earlier poster, when all four members appeared on stage at the same time, you knew something was up. This was my 5th 360 show, and I think they should keep Magnificent as the opener (as much as I like Breathe). One thing I was really surprised...

    How do you save the world?

    It appears this is not an isolated incident. Here is another story of a related but separate (recent) occurrence. Starbucks Pay It Forward Associated Press Friday, December 21st, 2007 MARYSVILLE -- One woman's kindness to a fellow Starbucks customer has resulted in more than a thousand...

    Book Review: Bill O'Rielly's "Culture Warrior"

    Re: Re: Book Review: Bill O'Rielly's "Culture Warrior" Is he any more terrifying than, say, Michael Moore?

    Aloha stadium warning

    Of the 12 Vertigo shows I've seen this year, the crowd at this show was far and away the most plowed. I mean this in a good way, there were few obnoxious drunks and everyone was just having a good time.

    Aloha stadium warning

    I wish I had read this thread prior to the show. No exageration, the traffic to the stadium was absolutely HORRIBLE. I took me over 2 hours to get to the stadium from Wikiki and had to park illegally in some nearby neighborhood. The street signage completely sucked, and the traffic cops...

    Racial Profiling Or Legitimate Grounds For Suspicion And Arrest?

    There is probably more to the story. I have heard something about them recruiting various people to make cell phone purchases at Walmart --- perhaps one of them tipped this strange behavior to the police? There were also some reports the police discovered many of the cell phones disassembled...

    So, who wants Hillary Clinton for president?

    Re: Re: So, who wants Hillary Clinton for president? John McCain was widely considered an "asshole" during the 2000 primary elections. A big issue at the time was his supposed irritable temperament, which he has clearly moderated since then. So is it completely out-of-bounds to refer to...

    MERGED--> all discussion of Israel/Lebanon conflict

    There have been several reports that Hezzbolah has been shooting a single rocket into an area, waiting for medical personnel and media to arrive, and then spraying a barrage of rockets into that same general area. Israel is using guided missiles to take out specific Hezzbolah strongholds...
