I dunno if these guys ever made any impact in the good ol' US of A(A usually stands for arse in regards music, how are those bastards Crazytown still releasing songs?!?!?):censored: But anyway, back to Supergrass, IMO one of the best brit bands of the last 10 years, I prefer them to Oasis and...

I'm really in 2 minds. I got suckered in by the last one, just for the b-sides. Kinda regret that now as it is probably the U2 cd I listen to least of all. With the new best of, the DVD is coming out soon after, so I might buy the new singles and get that(I'm getting the DVD regardless...

Ya'll should watch the Slane documentary on Network 2(or is it RTE1?) this friday at 8pm. It's to celebrate the 21st anniversary. Should be some great stuff anyway, but also lotsa U2 titbits, the making of UF, and maybe even some more footage from last years Slane :drool: Apparently it is all...

There was a cool story in the paper here highlighting SuperniceguyBono In the mirror on sunday, they told of a woman , Lizzie Finnegan who is 26 and waiting for her SIXTH liver transplant. Because she is so ill and waiting urgently for a donor she never got the opportunity to go on a honeymoon...

Seriously, reallllly reaaaaaaaally weird one. I have been doubting my sanity recently alrite, but not much drink has been had lately, or any other illegal substances, so I'm all clear there. Anyway, me and my friends are sitting at a round table drinking, in a small hall, that is not too packed...

I know this place is seriously split on this issue. Well, almost nobody has serious problems with Elevation, it generally went safe and just plainly kicked ass. But Popmart definitely gets wayyy too much of a hard time from some people round here. Fair enough, all entitled to your own opinions...

Seriously, a tiny possibility. Hehe, tiny, cos no plans whatsoever for a U2 gig, but what IS happening tomorrow evening is a huge gig/celebration in Phoenix Park to welcome home and congratulate the BOYS IN GREEN! Apparently they wanted a Bus top through the streets thing with reception at...

Well more so than Roy Keane anyway! He did also display "wonderful skill" in the Walk On vid, but I'd call myself an "Irish sports start" before Boneo

This could be way way old news, but just saw the movie there on thursday, it's great btw! Great soundtrack too by Badly Drawn Boy. So I definitely wasn't expecting it when Zoo Station came pumping outta the speakers! It's used really well too, this kinda showdown scene and Hugh Grant's character...

I don't know if this has been brought up before, but I was reading the Sunday World today and I came across an interview with Bono. He mentioned that the band had been offered $23 million, yep, TWENTY THREE MILLION DOLLARS!from a car compnay that wanted to use Where The Streets Have No Namein...

Man, he was sooo sooo pissed! Fair play to him, he was really funny too! Great show, they talked to Bono backstage too, and get this, he saw the video of Slane, so it EXISTS!!!!!!!! Hehe, seriously, I watched him talk about it, he was saying that it was an emotional day at Slane1, that they...

Well, obviously we don't know how many of the new songs they will play live, but chances are, if they have completed it, there will be 5 or 6 new songs incorporated, so that leaves about 17 spaces for existing songs, which ones do you hope keep their place or get resurrected?? Think how...

Well, they are. I'd say that on live performance alone. But I've been listening to their album, 2nd album I think, For The Birds. It's lovely, beautiful, sweet, soft music. Saw 'em live at a gig in a lecture theatre in my Uni, University Limerick, last year, and they blew me away. The...

Well, today was like the 40th anniversary of RTE, and Gerry Ryan, a DJ here, had a show on tv where he chose the top 20 musical "moments". Not really moments, cos he just picked performers and they showed snippets and people talked about them, but it turned out really good. Some of the people...
