What country has the BEST U2 fans?

[J_NP]

Americans, obviously.

As has been stated multiple times, we are superior in every aspect of living and being

Really ? I thought it was only in 'accomplishing missions' .

 

[VertigoGal]

We're pretty good at that too, thanks for noticing.

Back on topic...Bono loves America so much that he gave one of his favorite songs---Sunday Bloody Sunday---to us! Well that's what he said at the concert, anyway.

Americans, obviously. As has been stated multiple times, we are superior in every aspect of living and being, U2 fandom included.

As for states...I'm going to have to go with sweet home Georgia (honorable mention to those in the great state of Canadia. Mostly cos I feel sorry for them ).

[U2Man]

If the concert videos are any indication, anywhere but the U.S.A. Most boring crowds ever.

This is the winning post.

06 UK 12.00
07 USA 11.72
08 Poland 9.25
09 Italy 9.04
10 Germany 5.03

Smaller countries such as Ireland don’t appear because their total registered users isn’t enough. And other variables should be taken in account. But I think is enough to say that Netherlands fans seems to be the most dedicated.

LOL

dont forget that they are good in occupying other places too!

 

[yertle-the-turtle]

America is not a continent. It is an accepted short form for 'United States of America'. North America is a continent, as is South America. They are separate continents.

And as for the original thread, I don't know, I think Chizzer's just trying to lead into St Louis somehow.

Well you make a good point

Now that we have determined America is the country with the best fans, and that Missouri is the state with the best fans, what city in Missouri has the best fans?

I gotta go with St. Louis.

Now some of you may say since I live in St. Louis, Missouri, USA that I am biased, but that couldn't be further from the truth.

I have done extensive research on this issue, and the fact that I live in the same city that has the best U2 fans is purely coincidental.

 

[RademR]

Best Fans = The Netherlands

'Merica sucks! I vote for Cuba.


Cuba: 2 || South Africa: 1

separated , well at least not phisically .

BTW you know what would be really funny, if there was an united states in europe , and if they started calling their country Europe .

 

[DarkAcrobat]

Thanks to post this map, some people here need geographical lessons, and graphically explained too...

By the way , USA crowds are boring ....

MEXICO, BRAZIL, CHILE crowds rockssss merciless !!

U2 LOVES really these countries, rather USA only means $$$$$ for any band, person, or entity.

Clearly.

How did the Elevation tour go for Mexico, Brazil, and Chile?

 

[U2_Guy]

Clearly.

It didn't. They went to "America" instead to make loads of money.

But when they do come here (South America) they play the best gigs of any tour, including songs rarely (The First Time) or never (Desire, Love is Blindness and Love Rescue Me snippets) played.

 

[U2_Guy]

Never played on the current tour, clearly...

 

[DarkAcrobat]

Clearly.

How did the Elevation tour go for Mexico, Brazil, and Chile?

That was an arena stage tour for medium audiences from 10 to 20 thousand people.

The audiences in Mexico , and South America are massive audiences.

U2 needs stadiums, above 50,000 capacity, to play here.

Elevation tour wasn't appropiate for stadium stages, Paul McGuinness, said it.

And, yes, U2 makes money in the USA, and after comes here to relax, have fun, and give us the best setlists and performances of the entire tour.

What a pleasure !!!

 

[Superman]

It's so obvious...

Brazil.......... Argentina, Chile, Italy, Portugal, Spain. Latin countries basically, where people are actually alive.

When U2 play countries like this, it's like The Beatles playing Ed Sullivan, believe me.

BTW, like Superman, i'm back from years of absence.

Cheers

don't go dragging me into this

Thats right and true , u can even see that their different stage for the outdoors , on the dvd it felt weird , it wasn't a right stage for a big audience , wasn't the right show for a big audience .

Besides in 20 years , which tour u think will be remembered the most ?

 

[jimehewson]

Bono loves America and America loves Bono, but the best crowd is definitely on Ireland. The irish fans really enjoy the shows. See the dvd's! the american crowd is so cold, and the irish is so... awesome!!!

 

[Nelson Muntz]

HA HA you thought this thread was serious.

HA HA you thought this thread was serious.

Swell, Nelson, swell...

 

[U2_Guy]

Zoo Tv and Vertigo Tour, for sure.

And i believe Popmart will be best remembered than the Elevation Tour as well (it was huge everywhere BUT the US... Americans never got Pop well...)
