Rock n' Roll Doggie VIP PASS
I would say 80's U2, but not because of the music. Yes, there was great stuff then, but also some so-so material. IMO, U2 have easily surpassed some of their 80's best with material from the 90's and 00's. So why the 80's? Mostly because of nostalgia - they were unknown and growing then. I got to see their rise to fame, enjoy when JT broke out and see how the band grew. This was a time when people actually rooted for U2 - not hated them (or Bono) simply because he's standing up for the millions in Third World Nations. This was a time when U2 weren't expected to re-create music with every album, as if that's even possible. And, of course, it's a time when both U2 and me were young - we had that ambition, naivete and curiosity.
