Shuttlecock! Part 2 - No Net on the Horizon

[phillyfan26]

Technically, I could be your father. You know, if your mom was one of those pervs who takes advantage of junior high kids.


NSW on the other hand could be your great grand father.

NSW is nearly a decade younger than my father, but, yeah, we're young gunners here.

I can't wait for my kick-ass new cans headphones to arrive so I can blast some Shuttlecock.

I'm seriously in the mood for some SHUTTLECOCK right now.

 

[phillyfan26]

I don't hate the Elevation tour as much as phillycock26 does. As a matter of fact, the Boston DVD is what really got me into the band.

That said, Vertigo was miles ahead in variation, and Bono's voice was pretty great during leg 5.

I don't hate it, I just think every other tour blows it out of the water. For what I consider to be the greatest live act in history, that still means Elevation is a good tour.

hehehe

I saw what was here before.

No, based on my calculations, NSW is literally older than the hills.

You laughin' at me? Did you catch my post before my edit?

I saw what was here before.

See? That's what happens when I get naughty; I corrupt minors.

 

[RedRocksU2]

that was a good entry

and yes, I did

Fair enough.

I'm not sure whether the regular covering of What's Going On lowers my opinion of the tour or not. It should be an amazing moment, but U2 is such a terrible cover band.

I'm not a minor, lady.

 

[corianderstem]

You aren't? Oh good. Still ... I'm old enough to be your (very young) mom.

The song choice is there, the execution is not.

 

[RedRocksU2]

funny thing is Pfan seems to be older, ha?

It doesn't help when Gwen Stefani hops on stage to sing it with him.

I turned 18 two weeks ago.

A very, very young mom.

I think you asked me in FYM if I had kids a couple of months ago.

 

[RedRocksU2]

lol, did I?

 

[corianderstem]

I'd have been 17.

I'd have been a mom AND a tragic band geek.

 

[LemonMelon]

I'm crossing my fingers that NLOTH somehow leaks on my 18th birthday.

 

[corianderstem]

One of my bosses swung by my desk today and we were chatting about Shuttlecock. She said she'd heard the tour was starting in Europe.

If that's the case, it's going to be REALLY hard to avoid tour spoilers before I get to see them.

 

[RedRocksU2]

I have shirts that are older than you little buggers.

It's okay to buy new shirts now and again, you know.

 

[No spoken words]

I'm pretty fucking old.

 

[corianderstem]

Yeah, but you're in good company.

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

I'm pretty fucking old.

way to state the obvious.

 

[coolian2]

I'm pretty fucking old.

cheers, captain obvious.

 

[corianderstem]

Cut that out, you two.

 

[RedRocksU2]

I was talking about the shuttlecock concert shirt from '88

I'm pretty fucking old.

not older than me

way to state the obvious.

[coolian2]

Cut that out, you two.

that's such a fucking coincidence.
