Although sometimes you wouldn't know it from reading some of the posts here—which is good.
I was reading Canadiens1160's thread about which song "hooked" people onto U2 and some of the stories sounded so familiar.
I like many bands and different types of music, yet no matter what I always come back to U2. I guess I've always wondered about why this is. Every other U2 fan I know is very obsessed with the band: buying their entire back catalogue, listening to albums multiple times in succession, seeing multiple shows, TRAVELING hundreds of miles to see a concert.
I'm probably biased in saying this but, I guess what I'm trying to say, is that relative to other bands I find that U2 fans are the most loyal, die-hard, obessive types out there(which is not to say there aren't these types of fans for other bands).
So why is that? What is it about U2 that brings this out of us? Is it their music, their personalities etc.?
