I know that Bono likes The Beatles, The Who, The Rolling Stones, Elvis, Bob Marley, Beach Boys,and Destiny's Child {now that's funny lol! I am just kidding!} I have just found out that he likes Jars Of Clay, cool! The Edge likes The Clash. I think Larry likes JJ17 {don't know how to spell it.} Adam likes Bob Marley, and Destiny's Child. What else do you know?

Oh. Please name some songs of theirs, if you know of any. I don't know of theirs.
 
I have a fan magazine that says in the begining of the band they had a very diffrent band tastes, here they are:

Bono - Talking Heads, Rolling Stones and The Clash
The Edge - Television, and Patti Smith Group
Adam - XTC, Ramones
Larry - Echo and the bunnyman

Bands that they rejected: The Eletric Light Orchestra, Emerson, Lake & Palmer
 
I find it amusing that U2 lovers find it so hard to like other bands.

I Iove many kinds of music (except country my own prejudice) but if you hear R&H or AB outakkes you wwilll hear many kinds without prejudice.

Where did you draw that conclusion from? If you visit Just The Bang And The Clatter, you'll see that U2 fans love all kinds of music! :heart:

Aw...I don't mind a few of that band's songs...did they give any reasons as to why they didn't care for ELO?
