    All U2.Com Discussion HERE "Artificial Horizon" Update pt 2

    ATYCLB=released in 2001? U2.com doesn't even get Album releases right. They posted that ATYCLB was released in 2001 in the "Best of the Noughties" article. Um, ATYCLB was released in October in the year 2000. I love that album and it made be a u2 fan for life. I know it was released in Oct...

    Best show so far?

    Saw nine 360 shows on this tour, from different vantage points. The 360 sound system is awesome but it is a shame when it gets ruined by the acoustics of each individual stadium, especially in the upper deck. All the seats I had in the lower deck, the sound was great. But we are stuck with...

    You're Most Memorable U2 Moment

    Standing in line between the Brooklyn Bridge and Manhatten Bridge waiting to get into Fulton State Park. I will never forget the image of turning around and seeing U2 standing on a flatbed truck riding accross the Manhatten Bridge. You could hear Bono talking into the microphone saying hello...

    MTV's Top Ten U2 List Sucks Beyond Compare

    If they were just ranking the videos, I think they got it right with #1 and #2. The Saints Are Coming and Window in the Skies are not only the best u2 videos but are two of the best videos ever made. Especiially Window in the Skies. Both versions of that video are just magnificant. Beautiful...

    The first U2 song where you "got it"

    I kick myself for not seeing them perform live in the JT or ZooTV era (and I went to a lot of concerts back then too). I wish I did. I often ask myself, where was my head? I was paying too much attention to Pink Floyd. I recently was able to watch an entire whole JT concert on YouTube (some...

    The first U2 song where you "got it"

    I was a freshmen in college 1980 and to this day, I still remember hearing I Will Follow for the first time on the radio. That guitar sound was new, fresh and was immediately unforgetable. I have always liked them but I was never a fanatic. But that all changed with ATYCLB. The song "Walk...

    Most Monumental Album Flops...

    Personally, I think ATYCLB is a masterpeice. But in truth, I also believe POP is also a very near masterpiece as well. I may be biased because of my love for the band, but along with a lot of other people, I did not like POP at first. I listened to POP a few times when I bought it and than...

    Adam Clayton: Album in 2008

    It was definitely played to a Journalist. It was on a show called 60 minutes II. This was filmed, I believe, before ATYCLB was released. The journalist was allowed into the studio to observe them recording and then she and bono went for a drive in his car. She asked him what he was listening...

    Adam Clayton: Album in 2008

    I am with you. This is what I think the plan is. Spring 2008 release, tour starts late summer. This way the band can be on the road during election season so that Bono can continue to build the base for the One campaign. He wants to reach 5 million members before the next election. U2...

    Why didnt U2 like Vertigo Discoteque

    That may be true, and I cannot understand it either. Maybe because Pop was not recieved well (me included). But I was so wrong about that. This album aged so well, it stands up to all their other stuff and is, no doubt, a great album and is my second favorite U2 album. Maybe it is not the...

    Slane Castle: Backing tracks or backup band?

    Wow, what an interesting thread. I have often wondered these things myself. "Beautiful Day" being one of the songs (virtual choir of voices?). That is very funny. "One" is another song. To me it sounds like a virtual string section is playing with them at the beginning of the song. Yes...

    RIAA demanding college students pay $3000 because of downloading

    As far as I am concerned, this people deserve it. Bono and his band, has provided the world with such great music. His band has sold 150 million records. They have earned a billion dollars in tour money alone. They are stinking rich. Does that mean you should steal what they make? Not in...

    RIAA demanding college students pay $3000 because of downloading

    I would disagree. I am not sure of this, but I think that historically the biggest cd buying group were teenagers or early adults. The teenagers and young adults that I know, (my nieces and nephews) think it is insane to pay for music. Why should they, when they can download it for FREE. I...

    RIAA demanding college students pay $3000 because of downloading

    90% of people do it? That does not meet it is the right thing to do. Copying your friends cds is not stealing. That is ok, it is on the mass level that is a problem. Do your friends have every cd you want? Walking into your friends house, is not like walking into a cd store. These illegal...

    RIAA demanding college students pay $3000 because of downloading

    II do not think you understand. I think that are trying to get with the program. RIAA loves iTunes and the legal Napster. People who use these services pay for the music they download. What they don't like, are the people who download the music for free from illegal sources. Here are some...

    Joshua Tree turns 20

    I am amazed how things have changed. A little bit off subject, but nowadays, 15 year olds just download songs illegally. The thought of shelling out babysitting money to buy music is a foreign subject to teenagers these days. They think music is free. My nephew for one. I am sad about that...

    OMG: 'Kite' from WITS single!

    I just find it amazing that people think music is free. I really feel bad for all the artist out there.
