    Sound Quality at Vancouver I & II

    Caught both Vancouver shows from the floor and while U2's performance was great as usual, I was stunned that the sound quality was so poor. I had read some of the reviews regarding the sound on this tour but I wanted to see for myself, especially since GM Place is considered one of the better...

    Fool-proof GA policy to get into the heart

    With all the controversy surrounding the policy on getting into the heart (egg or whatever) I think I have come up with the best suggestion yet. If you can produce a Popmart ticket stub you are automatically given a bracelet to get in! Not only do you prove you are a longtime fan, but you also...

    It's time to hear THE EDGE sing!

    After seeing 3 Popmart shows the one thing that was sadly missing from Elevation was The Edge's singing. He has a great voice, not to mention the karaoke routine on the first Popmart leg was perhaps the most "fun" I've had at a U2 gig. I think the Edge should be given the freedom to have 5...

    Bingo ?

    I guess we'll know soon if this vindicates Bush: http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story2&u=/ap/20030324/ap_on_re_mi_ea/war_chemical_plant

    British cop killed in Ricin raid

    This is sad... I don't think this poor guy should have died. When the US deals with terror suspects they take all kinds of precautions, I guess this is what happens when you don't: http://www.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/europe/01/15/stabbing.questions/index.html

    Pop up adds and your computer

    I just realized that I am getting pop up adds when I'm not even online. I do have cable so I realize that I'm sort of online all the time, but I thought I needed an open window for this crap to infiltrate my screen... I even cleaned all cookies etc to no avail. How can they do this B.S.? Now I...

    It's been 5 years!!

    Well it's been 5 years (yesterday) since my first U2 concert. We drove for 6 hours from the Vancouver area in order to catch the only northwest show of the first leg - Eugene, OR. Popmart show #5. Very strange to arrive in a small city and know that the biggest show in the world is playing...

    McCartney to tour!

    He announced it right after U2's performance. I am not really sure how exciting this is, but he hasn't toured N America in over a decade. He has in the past played all the Beatles hits he sang on at his shows.

    Black Hawk Down

    I just saw this film and really enjoyed it. An excellent portrayal of a confusing and horrific battle - Mogadishu 1993. All political perspectives aside, the story really shows how a group of young Americans held their ground under overwhelming odds. It doesn't have as much character...

    Winona arrested.......?

    This is somewhat off topic but she is a friend of Bono's. Is she broke or just unbelievably cheap? http://www.cnn.com/2001/SHOWBIZ/News/12/13/ryder.arrest/index.html

    Do you agree with this quote from Bono?

    This quote (re 9/11) is from the new Spin magazine interview with the band. I think Bono makes some good points, but if I was American I might take some offense to the latter part... What do you think? "Whenever you see this kind of darkness, there is extraordinary opportunity for the light...

    Hows the audio on the DVD?

    Any audiophiles out there(with good equipment) that can comment on the audio track, especially the DTS? Is the centre channel just Bono? Do they make the common error of mixing way to much audience noise in the rear channels during the songs? Lots of Sub? I wont have the DVD for a few days, but...

    Any fans of The Who? Get the new DVD!!!!

    I just watched the new Who DVD, live at Royal Albert Hall. They are truly one of the greatest rock bands ever, and in their 50's they can still put on a great show. John Entwhistle's bass solo during 5:15 is perhaps the best bass playing I have ever seen. The production and sound quality are...

    Is the 3rd leg a big cash grab?

    Is anyone else dissapointed in the 3rd leg cities? Another thread was posted that pointed out that there are only 4 "new" markets in the next set of dates. All of the other shows are close to or in cities that have already been played. I kind of wonder whether this schedule was put together just...
