Interference.com has existed since 1980. Hypothetical.

- what would be our most outrageous reactions to new U2 material?

- Would setlist threads be bitching about too much 11 O'Clock Tick Tock?

- Funny threads like 'Who shot JR?' And 'Mili Vinili lip sync'

any mili vinili thread could've been one of those threads that gets 5 stars.

Too much rawk on the War album. The Edge really seems like he's on autopilot.

"also, what the fuck was Edge doing in Zooropa? there was no guitar in that album"

Why's he singing in that Numb song?

There would be complaints about static setlists.

I'd be complaining about their concerts from '83 onwards being too short. 90 minutes is a bit pathetic. It got a bit better during the JT tour though.

I feel like both TUF and AB would have resulted in meltdowns.

I feel like OK Computer will be constantly praised and probably nobody will talk about Pop.

Is this new album really a U2 album? They didn't even put their name on it

"Elvis didn't even fucking eat America. what the fuck are they talking about?"

Maybe people would actually stop idolising ZooTV on one hand but complaining about static setlists in 360 or I+e on the other.

ZooTv was great, but more fool you if you bought tickets for consecutive nights

I+E had amazing setlist.

'The Unforgettable Fire' is boring compared to their last album. I can't see any good singles coming from it. That's what happens I guess when you record it in a castle.

"Brian Eno has ruined U2!!!!11!!!1111!!" (and then three years later "Y'know, I always thought that Eno fellow would be a positive influence...").

People act like AB was universally accepted by U2 fans in here, but there would have been a huge rift in here if interference were around. There was a lot of "U2 sold out", "they're no longer Christian", and "omg they're not even rock anymore".

Bono has sold his soul to Lucifer and now he dresses up as him on stage!

Larry and Adam are quitting U2 and are joining REM. U2 is over.

When did this forum actually begin, anyway? I joined in February of 2001, and I know I lurked here some in 2000, probably found it by scouring the internet for information on the upcoming release of ATYCLB.

 

[david]

1996 I thought? Late 96. If I recall, discotheque actually leaked here?

The Internet has come so far in 18 years.

I don't think the forum aspect of this site got started until 1999 though because from my minimal digging of the web archives I didn't see anything that resembled blue crack until 1999.

A band of aging, balding has verbs who will probably try and continue to fail topping The Joshua Tree.

I remember using internet in late 90s or early 2000s. this kinda brings back memory

 

[david]

Those were the days. I got online in June of 1996. I had AOL and browsed around the AOL "channels" as they were called back then, until someone informed me about Netscape navigator and venturing outside of AOL to look at this thing called the World Wide Web.

AOL and Netscape. Two things that are do quintessentially the 90s. So much so that, despite having all of the opportunity to become the world's biggest thing, they decided to stay in the 90s.

I remember the time when Mac laptops came stock with some nice games that i could enjoy.
