No...get something U2 related Mike.

I'll celebrate Bono's birthday with him. Just a few months too late.

 

[VintagePunk]

it was unbelievable. i don't think i've had so much fun at a concert. for me, it was a celebration of a great new album and a great history.

there were some great suprises in Zoo Station, An Cat Dubh, and Running to Stand Still(even though i've been following the setlists, i realized that 90% of the crowd was stunned that the band played these songs)!

Yeah, a little hard to remember sometimes that they're not always playing for fanatics like us. I just received the San Diego opener on DVD today.

When's your next show?

My parents aren't big fans of the band either...but they enjoyed themselves when we went to the two of the 6 total Chicago Elevation shows.

They know how big of a fan I am...so they are willing to see U2 with me

The dogs in my neighborhood are having a barking contest. One woofs, then the other woofs, and so on, and so on...

I wish I could have a dog, but I'm a renter...

You are too much Mikal...wayyyy too much.

 

[MikeSt]

Do you like The Killers? "Somebody Told Me" is a great one

haha, I just put them on my Itunes...great album....tho I think the best song on there is "All These Things That I've Done"

 

[VintagePunk]

Same with my parents...in fact my mom told me about the People in the News thing....even though I already knew through AtU2.com

And my dad today bought me the Chicago Sun-Times cause it had a review of Saturday's show....I bought the Chicago Tribune myself...which had another review of the show.

 

[MikeSt]

[angel_28]

Those show reviews were awful.

I think Larry ought to beat the heck out of Jim Derogatis.

 

[U2MaNaIcWeIdO]

hehe! thanks, tho I have everything U2 related!

Even cover songs that U2 did? And anyone who has opened for U2 over the past 25 years? Or any cover versions of U2 songs?

Mine paused after Vertigo and wouldn't start again.

I have three others to watch though...i moved on, and hope the live one will work later. My dvd/home theatre system needs to be serviced...trying to watch it on playstation.

ugggh I cant stand ppl who cover U2......oh wait except for Living End...an Aussie band who covered SBS!!! it fuckin blew me away!

Yeah my parents are always cutting stuff out of the paper about U2 for me as well....i love it

 

[VintagePunk]

ahhhh now your talking...Ive heard good things!!! might give that a go. I also heard Martha Wainwrights new cd is really good.

Heard it the other day...definitely worth checking out.

I've always thought that the Chicago reviewers are one of the pickest groups of people in the world....but that's just what I think...being from Illinois and all.

I dunno if Larry going to win or Derogatis is going to win....but I see a fair fight if it ever happened.

But overall I do agree with what you are saying...I didn't like that one of the reviewers comapired U2 to Britney Spears....I think.

Diane - is yours the 4 cam version? Is there more than one version floating around?

 

[U2MaNaIcWeIdO]
