    Adam's run-in with the garda (1985)

    I know this is an old thread, and many of you probably have clarified the speculation as true. But for those of you who have not, here is Adam Clayton's appearance on the Late Late Show from May 2014. He speaks of the Walk in My Shoes charity he is working with, to help people struggling with...

    Bob Dylan - Tempest

    I gave Tempest a quick listen last night, and I must say it is a very good record! Dylan's voice sounds incredible and he is hitting some very nice melodies! I wasn't too much a fan of TTL, and thankfully Early Roman Kings is the only song that has connotations to that sound. One critique is...

    Bob Dylan - Tempest

    You can find all Dylan's set list's on his own website, Right here...... Bob Dylan Set Lists | The Official Bob Dylan Site His recent set lists have been pretty much the same for the last few years, and is mostly a good mix of 60's classics and recent 00's material with some 70's thrown in...

    Bob Dylan on Bono

    Wow, thank you for posting! I really enjoyed reading this! Bono sounds so knowledgeable and good here, It's hard to believe after hearing him talk like this he went on to compare himself and U2 to Jay-Z and the Kings of Leon and write seemingly very one dimensional songs like Vertigo and Get On...

    What do you think of this ripoff of "van Dieman's Land"?

    Its an old statement but I really do hate it when people insist on saying something when they really have nothing good or worthwhile to say! Butterscotch made this thread thinking that Robin Spielberg ripped off Van Diemen's Land, I'm sure Butterscotch was interested to learn how U2 had...

    What do you think of this ripoff of "van Dieman's Land"?

    Yeah, I've heard this too, here is a good interview, to back it up, it's from Slane 1984, Bono interviewing Van Morrison and Dylan, Bono seems impressed here by Dylan's knowledge of Traditional Irish music, Bono also seems a little out of his dept here meeting two of his hero's and even...

    What do you think of this ripoff of "van Dieman's Land"?

    I had it spelled Van Diemen's Land originally, but I doubted myself and copied the spelling from the original post, hahahaha, no joke, :doh: While were on proper writing and punctuation, you should add an apostrophe to Diemen's, Van Diemen's Land, :wink: Edge probably did mention it at some...

    What do you think of this ripoff of "van Dieman's Land"?

    The Water is Wide is a traditional Scottish song dating back to the 1600's, and is indeed what The Edge ripped off to get the melody and chord structure for Van Dieman's Land, Neil Young also borrowed the melody for his song Mother Earth (Natural Anthem) Tradition songs have always been...

    The National (Part 2) - High Violet & Tour

    This One? YouTube - The National - Exile Vilify I ain't the biggest fan of Exile Vilify, Although it's still a great track, it reminds me too much of a more Mellon collie version of Wake Up Your Saints, mainly just the piano riff, It's as if they had the roots of the track and didn't know...

    Bono's New Fender Custom Shop guitar

    Nice Guitar, but isn't it more or less a fancy stage prop?, Bono plays V little Guitar as we know, except for maybe when he wants to strum along to One, (with the volume turned up) I thought the Falcon looked great and really suited Bono, But anyway nothing to get too excited about as we'll...
