I'm not embarrassed to be U2 fan. Irked sometimes.
My fave favorite bands (of which U2 is one) of all are
The Who
Springsteen & E Street
The Patti Smith Group
Midnight Oil
Then I'd say The B-52'S, Marshall Crenshaw, and Arcade Fire.
After that The Foo's, Green Day (from American Idiot)
There's other bands from the 2000's onwards of whom I really like, or love certain songs.
But wanting to go any of my top 5 bands once my income went meant paying back my sis thus foregoing chances to see other bands of the '00s onward - except
when Muse & Interpol were 2nd bill with U2. I was kind of disappointed w Interpol live. I really loved their single.
And Green Day gave a free concert on a street in Lower Manhattan for American Idiot. That was very cool.
Sometimes some bands I'd like to have seen where I could sit outside in the Summer - the temps were high ish to high
but it was the humidity that kept me away.
Plus
3 Summer's of Covid.
At least I have WFUV-FM (Fordham U) to help me keep up w alt rock, and other music genres at times. ?
