Hamas agrees to ceasefire deal

I think it was both Eno and Lanois not getting credits on parts of No Line. Anyway. Not looking like a fall release. I mean, it's May. Unless they are planning on doing a surprise release, I think we would have heard something by now. Usually the first song or two would be streaming a few...

update from Gen Alpha. They have tired of Tay Tay. Overexposure is a hell of thing.

I think Larry is/will be back. Definitely for recording, but the question is more about touring.

My two cents. I don't have a lot of love for All That. But Kite is in my top 15 U2 songs of all time

Glad to have you!

The Showman is better than Best Thing and Get Out? Really?

I don't understand the fixation people have on unreleased songs. Winter is a jumbled mess with really bad instrumentation, jilted lyrics and kind of cut and pasted together. hence being unreleased. Mercy doesn't do much better.

Yikes!!! Those are horrible guesses. American Soul and The Showman are terrible. I LOVE Landlady and Little Things. Best Thing is much better than most around here want to admit. I'd take it over Sweetest Thing any day.

This is kinda cool to look at. year end modern rock chart 1997 Pos Billboard Modern Rock 1997 Artist --- -------------------------- ------ 1. Sex and Candy Marcy Playground 2. Semi-Charmed Life Third Eye Blind 3. Fly...

Only 4 rock bands had a number 1 album in 1997, U2, Metallica, Fleetwood Mac, and Aerosmith. And No Doubt is kind of in the rock realm. Definitely and R&B, Boy band, and Country renaissance happening around that time, Although I do remember 3rd Eye Blind being played like 3 times an hour for...

If the band had gotten to the point during recording the album with Last Night on Earth and Miami the way they are played live. damn, it would push my love for POP up even higher. I'll say this. If they're really looking for a Fuck Off to the Pop charts album, Miami would be a great template...

AZ just passed the harshest anti-abortion law in the country. The signatures have been gathered to put it on the ballot. Chalk this state up for Biden. Keep on going Republicans! Biden lost FL last time by 3.5% The average that abortion ballot measures have exceeded the polling preceding...

I don't think many are arguing that POP is "better" than JT or AB. Although I do find it interesting that several people have said it is one of their most listened to U2 albums now all these years later. It definitely is mine. But I also am just blown away that many people think it's their...

I think the difference is that our bullshit in the 80's was homegrown. Satanists, video games warping young minds, and all that. Now it's mainlined bullshit straight from Russia and China. You ever find it odd that there's this extreme uproar from mostly younger people about Israel/Gaza nearly...

I gotta disagree. I think there are at least 4, maybe 5 songs to choose from other than Disco as the first single. My top 3 that I think would have changed things would be Last Night, Staring and Gone. With rumors of it being a dance album and people thinking.. seriously???? And then they hit...

I think it's pretty simple. Discotheque. The video that accompanied it. Bypassing Gone, Do You Feel Loved, Staring at the Sun and Last Night On Earth which all would have made excellent first singles. Disco is a great album cut. It was first impressions that hobbled POP from the start. Still the...

Just to inject some reality. Biden is showing normal signs of aging. along with his regular speech that gets a little hung up from the stutter. Trump is showing genuine signs of dementia. Where Biden takes an extra second to recall a name or a word, or stumbles a bit and then restates the...

So a Democrat just won a special election 1. In Alabama 2. In a +31 Trump district 3. by 24 points She ran as a pro-choice, pro-IVF candidate.

Definitely agreeing here. You can't have a Fuck off rock album filled with bouncy little rock numbers like Atomic City. I could envision it being more in the vein of The Blackout (minus the Ned and Zach nonsense) As much as I would love it to be, I don't think they have another Exit or Acrobat...

I'd say SOE has has some good tunes on it for you right now.

Yeah, No Line had such promise. Some really great material on there. I love Cedars, White as Snow, MOS, Magnificent, Fez, and No Line. Breathe is cool enough. Hell even Boots is a decent album cut, just a horrible first single choice. I think Stand Up Comedy is the worst song they've ever...

For context U2 would rank 3rd for highest grossing Vegas residencies. The top two slots are Celine Dion whose first residency was almost 5 years long and grossed 385 million. and her second ran for 8 years and grossed 296 million. So in 5-6 months U2 almost surpassed Celine's 8 year total.

So Eno designing the stage and Danny joining them for One... Is there any hope that this is a sign of their involvement with the next albums in progress? I mean, they did allow the band to put Stand Up Comedy and Boots on an album, so they aren't perfect by any means. But it would be a nice way...

I believe it was at Rubin's studio. I assume the songs were done and fairly ready to roll, but still. I think they would surprise themselves with the result. I mean Zooropa was 3 months get everything done, and it's fantastic.
