    A Boy Falls From the Sky is some U2's best work

    Been listening to A Boy Falls From the Sky and man, this is classic U2. Great song writing, the lyrics are excellent (actually, I'd argue some of Bono's best work), Edge's sound is so distinct, Larry's going off on the drums and Adam is doing his thing. I really wish they'd release this song...

    The Orb is Freckin' Bananas!

    As a Vegas local, I rarely get excited by new attractions in town. Just means more traffic etc. But the orb is nuts. This thing is next level. I sincerely hope it succeeds in reinventing live entertainment. Can't wait to see U2 play there.

    U2.com subscriber presale confusion

    Excited to see the U2ers again but kinda confused on the U2.com subscriber presale. You select three shows along with different pricing tiers...and then what? Like does TicketBastard select your tickets for you and and then charge you? I'd kinda like to be able to choose my own seats -...

    Looking for two in San Diego

    Soooooo...I got excited when I saw U2 was coming back to Cali. But then I saw the date which I thought was the same as my sister's wedding. Notice I said 'thought.' Turns out U2 is two months later than the wedding and I can go to the concert. So I check the tix and of course, no GA is avail...

    Best show since ZooTV

    I've seen every U2 show from ZooTV on and I have to say, the I+E show is the best since ZooTV. Better than 360. I've been trying to figure out why and I think it's the story of the band (along with the video) and the band's energy. I just saw them in LA and they looked like they were...

    Waves of Sorrow stinks

    I don't know if this is a work in progress or considered a finished song. But...it stinks. If this is the new direction they're going, I'm scared. Enough with music about Africa. PLEASE! And enough on the nose lyrics. Bono is best when he's singing in metaphors. (So Cruel is a GREAT...

    City of Blinding Lights is AMAZING!

    Don't know about you, but when I put on the Chicago DVD and COBL comes on, I just can't help but to get goosebumps. That song is, imho, one of their best sine Achtung. Only songs coming close are Kite and Vertigo. And it's a great show opener too. As a side note, if I remember correctly...

    A Couple Years Later...Bomb is Forgettable

    The first time I saw U2 was ZooTV in Las Vegas, 1992. I did not like U2 at the time and went to see Public Enemy. But when U2 took the stage, they blew me away. The next day I bought Achtung. Then came Zooropa and Pop and U2 started to doubt themselves. Now, they're putting out dentist...

    City of Blinding Lights Live

    IMO, this song is the only song from Bomb that is truly epic. The other songs are good enough, but this song clearly rises above the rest and will become timeless. It's also a great live song.

    Can't stand Yaweah or acoustic thing but...

    I must say that the two of them together are great! I'm really looking forward to seeing this song live (provided I can get tix to the next Vegas show.)

    Africa during Streets?

    Ok, first of all let me say that I think it's great what Bono is doing for poor people and poor countries around the world. I also think he deserves a Nobel Peace Prize for his work. That said, I cringe every time I hear the new beginning of Streets with the Africa stuff. There is a time and...

    Still no Vegas date?!!?!?!?!

    Fellow Vegans, what the f**k are we doing?!?! U2 (the band that opened their tour here just a few years ago) isn't even stopping over for one night on this tour? We can't take this sitting down. We need a peitition or something. Any ideas?

    Some thoughts on the B-Sides and the Bomb

    I recently got my hands on all the B-Sides and I must say that I am very, very impressed. Here are some thoughts I had regarding those tunes. 1. Native Son is great. I've read some people wishing that this song didn't turn into Vertigo or that Vertigo is better, etc. What I wish is that this...

    Lyrics for those who bought the album off of I-Tunes

    I purchased my Bomb off of I-Tunes and was sad not to find some kind of text file containing the lyrics. Does anybody know if there is some way to get the lyrics from Apple or somewhere else? Thanks

    Bono's stance on abortion and stem cell research

    Anybody know where Bono stands on the issues of abortion and stem cell research? Just curious as he said something to the effect of 'God, religion & science are all the same thing' during the New York concert.

    MP3's from the NYC concert

    If I should be posting this somewhere else, sorry. I did look around and I can't seem to find any info on this. Anyways, does anybody have the mp3's from the NYC concert? I'm sure they're out now. thanks!

    Why the UN should not be in charge of policing the world

    The UN is very good at humanitarian situations. The UN is ok at peacekeeping missions. The UN is NO GOOD at dealing with rouge nations like Iran who is probably going to have a nuke bomb within a year (unless Israel takes action-because the US cannot). Sending letters to crazy thugs DOES NOT...

    It's a grower!

    Well, at first listen, I was not overly impressed with the new album. I think that is mostly because I was really expecting 'U2's first rock record' as Bono put it. But after listening to the album for about a week straight, I have to say it's fucking brilliant. I find myself sitting in my...

    Last song is a throw-away

    Since AB, the last song on U2 records has been throw-aways, which I find disappointing. I'm talking songs that have very little chance to be played live and just aren't that good. You've got: 1. The Wanderer on Zooropa 2. Wake Up Dead Man on Pop 3. Grace on ATYCLB 4. Yahweh on Bomb What...

    To I-Tunes or to buy a CD, that is the question

    I can't make up my mind if I should download that album from I-Tunes or actually go to the store and purchase the CD. All of my other U2 CD's just lay around as I have them all on my computer. Plus, if I download, I would be able to make my own CD with b-sides and Fast Cars, provided they are...

    Don't believe the hype!

    Ok, the record is good. Is it the second coming? No way. I think you should shield yourself from all the reviews and propoganda as those things do ultimately affect your feelings about the record. Here are some things that I have found to be myths. 1. This is a rock record in the vien of...

    No pre-election terrorist attack on US

    Why was there no attack before the election? You know Al Queda would have if they could have, right? What does that say about Bush's handling of the war on terror?

    They can't dance, at least they know

    There's a line in Vertigo that is something to the effect of, 'they can't dance, at least they know.' Do you think that's a refrence to U2's Pop days? The 'at least they know' line seems like it could be. Your thoughts...
