Besides U2....

[U2Girl1978]

does any other band actually reach out to the audience? Do they let the fans go onstage like U2 does? Or are U2 the only ones who really care about the fans?





**I hope this is the right place for this!**

I think some bands may try to imitate, but they can never duplicate....

It seems like any of the concerts I've gone to the band just wanted to play and get the heck outta there.

I saw Bon Jovi in 1995 and they had a huge cocktail bar at the side of the stage. About a dozen people were brought out of the audience and watched part of the show from the stage. I thought that was kinda cool.

Unfortunately I wasnt one of them!

There you go with the Bon Jovi answer.

But pulling out someone from the audience isn't really reaching out. All bands do that.

Apologizing in front of a primetime audience in the Grammy Awards to their fans is the real reaching out that will forever be unmatched in the annals of music history. No band has ever done that and no band ever will!

U2 are unique because of The Mullen Apology!

All hail the king ...Laurence Mullen Jnr.!!!

Indeed Jick! And I enjoy your version very much! It's stored on the ipod as, 'Larry Apologises (Jick Mix)'

Jick you are correct as usual

I'd say Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band reach out to their fans just as well as U2 does.

Green day let their fans go on stage and play one of their songs using their instruments. U2 haven't done that have they? not that i like Green day or anything, just read that they do that.

Although on that MTV Jammed programme U2 let that guy in New York play drums to I will Follow on the moving truck.
