So I decided to take up guitar this week and it's goin' pretty good. I decided to come here for my guitar advice, cuz everyone in U2 land was always so friendly. :)
Firstly, I want to play some U2 songs (duh) but I don't trust most of the sites out there. Where do YOU guys get your tabs...
Hope this is the right forum for this...
Some backstory (haha! cheesy pun!) -- I've been having back problems, and TMJ pain consistently for the better part of this year -- Both related to each other and ultimately caused by stress methinks.
I am a whitewater kayaker and just recently took...
I've been looking for some good seats and in the process I've come across tons of people who are having trouble getting rid of their REALLY good lowers, usually face value or less. So I thought I'd check here. If anyone's interested email me at lilbmcg@gmail.com or look on...
Letters to Bono (comedy)
OK I have this incredibly silly thing that has snowballed into something absolutely hilarious and I had to share it here.
So it all started out with me writing these silly little letters to Bono in my livejournal. The first one was just "Dear Bono, How many stamps do...
Anyone have any info on what city U2/Bono were in yesterday and where he is today? A bunch of people here at Notre Dame are going nutso about rumors that Bono is coming to this stupid pep rally thing they are having tonight. I hate football, and large crowds of annboying sports fans, and I...
Bonjour from the south of France, mon amis...
I have a question. I'm living in Nice right now and thought I'd go out and do some sightseeing today...It's taken me 2 weeks to do this. Anyway, I forget the name of the place where the Edge has his wedding. I am guessing that it is Jardin...
Hey guys, what is the name of the last song that plays before the "Everyone! Everyone! Everyone!" thing starts? You know, the one that goes "oooohhh ohhhhhhhhhhoohoooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhh" hehe. And what's the artist's name?
Cheers.
Question about how to do a ticket swap -- Experienced advice please!
I'm arranging to do a straight up ticket swap with someone who is in another country -- I'm in the U.S., they're in Ireland, and I'm trading a fall NYC show for a Dublin show. Obviously, if you've never met the person, the...
I got a phone call from someone who swears she sees me on the cover of USA Today...It's a shot of Bono on stage, from behind, so you can see the crowd below him. But I haven't seen it yet! Does anyone have yesterday's USA Today?
If it really is me on there, then on my left (viewer's right)...
I live in the South Bend, IN area, and well...the Chicago shows sorta didn't do it for me (I missed the last one...d'oh!). Not sure why. I need to try again before the end of the leg. So is there anyone here traveling from the Chicago area and want to give me a ride to any of the shows the...
...in my opinion, has been Adam. For serious. And that's coming from a Bono girl.
Oh man, the Adam love on this tour is AH MAY ZING.
I say let's pay tribute, shall we?
And some that I took in Chitown last week:
There is a church in AZ that held a drawing to win 2 free tickets to a U2 show, as a marketing scheme to attract new parishoners.

I posted this in both my LiveJournal and MySpace, and I thought I'd share it here, too. There's a little bit of religious/spiritual content in here, so if you think you'll be offended you might want to skip this one. However, I hope you'll see the beauty in it, even if you're not a believer in...
Can you guys please show me some pictures of the bellydancing costumes that Morleigh has used? I have to design a costume for my final in my bellydancing class at school, and I am trying to get ideas...
Also, I am trying to decide between the following 2 color schemes: sheer red and gold...
Someone I know who went to San Diego told me he met "Boston Dave." And I was like, "Huh? Who's 'Boston Dave'??" He said Dave was some big guy who picked Bono up in Boston "and swung him around like a rag doll." WTF? lol! He didn't elaborate on it though, and said to look it up. So...Did...
OK I have a question for the musically-inclined among us. WTF is that thing? I'm guessing it's not a keyboard...That wee thing can't possibly have 88 keys...Any ideas/speculations? Fanks. :)
This is the thing I'm talking about, in case you haven't seen it. It says "ultimate" on it. I...
ATTN: Those interested in going to Dublin this summer
I have kind of a little idea I'd like to throw out there and see what the response is like. I know a lot of people are planning to fly out to Dublin for the Croke Park gigs. Well, I’ve been contemplating the idea of getting a small group...
Just a few hours ago it was #3...
I went out tonight with my little brother and bought the booklet/DVD set...It was hilarious to sit and watch my brother turn the booklet around and around different ways as he read Edge's little word drawings lol.
The AOL welcome page is advertizing Scottish band Snow Patrol as U2's new favorite band, but it isn't giving any kind of specific quotes. Anyone got the skinny on this?
I had a listen to their single and I likey. And I'm REALLY judgmental when I first hear a band. Too bad I just missed them...
Yeah, you know Bono's new hair color? Not color at all -- that, my friends, is his natural shade. I mean, there is nothing in his hair right now but pure Bononess. ;)
(And yes, I'm 100% sure of this.)
