Do any of you remember seeing a PSA (public service announcement) for helmet safety featuring Larry? I think it aired during the R&H era and it featured Larry playing a chromed out kit sitting up behind a Harley. A single lightbulb lights the space. Larry's voice plays over the video as he...

I was a senior at the UW in 1991 - a magical year to be sure. Incredible music and a NC for the Dawgs! Unreal.

Here's a shot, without referencing any research 1980 - The Rolling Stones 1981 - The Rolling Stones 1982 - The Rolling Stones 1983 - The Police 1984 - Duran Duran 1985 - Genesis 1986 - Sting (and his band) 1987 - U2 1988 - U2 1989 - Guns N Roses 1990 - Guns N Roses 1991 - U2 1992 - Pearl Jam...

I have 2 Monday GA tix and want to trade for Sunday GA tix or good reserved seats for either night - anyone? Thanks!

(paraphrased) From a letter to the editor... "U2 used to create culture, now they just seem to glom onto it" Your thoughts? Incidentally, in a non-related poll, SPIN readers voted U2 as the #1 band who should retire. Pretty harsh, but is there some truth to it?

Man, I can't believe the reactions of many of you to anything that is critical of the current music U2 is making. Why can't long-time fans be disappointed with ATYCLB and HTDAAB? Why are those opinions instantly tossed out? The FACT is, MANY long-time U2 fans are disappointed with where the...

Anyone know if there's official word on stage positioning for the US arena shows? I heard rumblings of a round, center-positioned, rotating stage...confirmed??? BTW - the 2 Seattle shows sold out in less than 30 minutes.

So I just visited Sun Studios and except for a couple of photos and the R&H mixing board, U2 doesn't get much love in there. There are a number of Sun Studios Compilation cds for sale there and I couldn't find any R&H era tracks on any of them. I was kind of disappointed. Cool place anyway!

Vocals - Joshua Tree Lyrics - Achtung Baby Guitar - Joshua Tree Bass - Rattle and Hum Delay Pedal - Joshua Tree Drums - Achtung Baby Keyboards - Zooropa Cowbell - Achtung Baby

Before some of you jump all over me - let me say that I have been a HUGE fan for over 20 years. No questions asked, U2 has been 75% of what has been played on my various stereos since at least 1987, when JT came out and I really got hooked. All that to say, I feared the day that U2 became...

U2 Documentary If I were U2's publicist, I would be scrambling to get MTV on a legit U2 documentary, focusing on the harder-edged U2 stuff. Promote the heck out of it. I have a feeling that the new album is going to come out but be under-appreciated by everyone but the long-time hardcore fans...

"Live" sucks. Why do people think they sound like U2? I can't figure that one out.

If you were going to burn a cd that told the Gospel story, how would it look? Themes: Creation Love Sin Christ/Redemption Forgiveness/Grace Future Glory I'll add mine later

I just bought AB (for the 3rd time) and found a used paper-cased version. Is it rare at all? I've never seen it, but that certainly doesn't mean it's rare. Anyone know?

1. Ultraviolet 2. 3 Sunrises 3. One Tree Hill

"...night is heavy, heavy as a truck...we need the rain to wash away our bad luck..." could read "...night is heavy, heavy like a truck...when will the rain wash away the bad luck?"

...and YOU get to choose the Benefit and 6-7 opening/festival/ b-stage acts. Be realistic - consider the audience. Oh yeah, and you also get to choose the venue near you they'll be playing! My picks Date: Aug 5 (my birthday) 2004 Venue: The Gorge Amphitheater in George, WA Benefit: Young...

Anyone see "Fiction Plane" on Kilborn last night? The song they played sure had a U2 ring to it musically. Anyone have their album? I was pretty impressed by what I heard. As an aside - can you imagine the chicks Joe Sumner is able to pull?

I wish I could skip work and do some sleuthing around town. Apparently he's meeting with Bill Gates and some of the other dozen or so Billionaires in town to raise some $$$. Great day to be in Seattle - 84 and sunny - 5% humidity. I'm guessing he'll visit the EMP as the new Hendrix exhibit...

I think I'd have to go with the AB-Era U2. They'd be the most fun. Hot chicks everywhere too.

I am particularly fond of the "outtakes" from the JT album art photo sessions. It's my fave U2-era and I'd like to do some art surrounding it. I figured PLEBA was the place to go for sweet pics! thanks!

I am going to burn a U2 disc to fall asleep to and would be psyched to find a pic of all or one of the fellas snoozing. Seems like I saw a pic of Bono sleeping on a soundboard one time - ring any bells? Anything would be appreciated!

OK, suppose you were given the superpower to make U2 re-do an album... ...which album would you choose and what would you make them change. If you're of the opinion that everything U2 has done is perfect, that's fine, but your response to that effect isn't necessary. Play U2 God for a minute...

What I am getting at is more than just the songs - it's how they fit together, how they tell a story, etc. I'd have to say my foursome is... - Unforgettable Fire - Promenade - 4th of July - Bad

IMO, the "vibe" of U2's albums w/ respect to the seasons: Unforgettable Fire: Winter (despite "Indian Summer Sky") Joshua Tree: Summer Rattle and Hum: Winter Achtung Baby: Winter / Spring Zooropa: Summer Pop: Summer ATYCLB: Fall What do you think?
