    30 years ago today, I became a U2 fan

    Saturday November 12, 1988. 13 years old. I was in Kansas City visiting some buddies I’d met at camp, and one of them had the idea to see Rattle and Hum in this really nice theater with great a great sound system. I wasn’t too keen on it but I was outvoted. Before then the only U2 music I had...

    In what year did you buy/get each U2 album?

    Was thinking about this today as hard as I was jonesing for new U2 between seeing R&H and the release of AB, it’s weird that I didn’t dive into their old catalogue more. Anyway 1987 - TJT 1987 - TUF 1988 - R&H (movie was first time I heard SBS) 1988 - UABRS (first time hearing almost...

    First one since 2003. It's called 57th & 9th, and spoiler alert: it is dog doo ): Sent from my iPhone using U2 Interference

    White Lies - part Depeche, part killers, and a light dusting of Duran Duran

    Stumbled upon this band a couple years ago and they're pretty awesome. Fourth album is coming out this fall. Do yourself a favor and check them out if you're like me and missed them the first couple times around.

    I just heard WGRYWH in an Office Max

    WTF? That's even weirder than hearing In God's Country on the radio a couple years ago.

    Custom, Hi-Res Chicago DVD cover for slipcases (for jewel case haters!)

    Instead of working this afternoon, I made this image for anyone who wants it (which is a few of you judging by the wholly justified griping about the packaging on the non-deluxe DVD. This is about a 3MB, 300 dpi jpeg with a 1/8-inch bleed all the way around. I did the best I could to get rid of...

    Is Mercy a b-side on a single?

    or is it just a leaked b-side without a single. I'm updating all my album artwork in iTunes. Thanks

    Are Coldplay boots available the way U2 boots are available?

    Just wondering if I can find a recent show anywhere. Knowing how generous U2 fans are with recordings, and knowing that many U2 fans are also Coldplay fans, 2+2 etc ... :|

    Kansas City Dec. 12?

    I was at a mall here where our resident a-hole ticket scalper has a big shop, and he was advertising U2 in KC on a side outside. I stopped in and asked about it, and the guy said they were playing here Dec. 12, and that a ticket sale date hadn't been announced. It was the first I'd heard of it...

    Thoughts on song(s) to be played tonight for the Pope?

    I'm guessing it'll probably be MLK, but I could also see them doing When I look At The World or Walk On. A place that has to be believed to be seen. If they add anything at all.

    Bono's orange Popmart shades

    I'd be mildly interested in purchasing a pair of these, if not a reasonable facsimile. Any suggestions?:der:

    No Kansas City ..... yet

    Although I notice there are four off days prior to the St. Louis show, and they usually play KC and StL on back-to-back nights. Bah

    Build Your Own U2 Album ... with a catch

    The first track must be a real first track on one of their albums, the second must be a real 2nd track, etc. For example, you can't have Streets and I Will Follow. You can't have One and With Or Without You. You must choose .... :evil: Edit: Just tracks 1-11. After that everyone will have Love...

    Paramount announces Rattle & Hum on HD-DVD

    http://dvd.ign.com/articles/577/577955p1.html The link doesn't mention anything About R&H other than to include it on a list of announced HD-DVD titles, but it's the only one that made me sit up and say "Boom Cha!"

    Everything I knew WAS wrong about Popmart

    After all these years I watched the Popmart Mecixo City video this weekend. Um, OK, first of all I had no idea that was Edge on Sunday Bloody Sunday, and I've listened to my boot of that show about a hundred times. WTF? Second, I have heard this tour poopooed so much and that's part of the...

    I have never heard a Radiohead song

    ... but I would like to. So please recommend 12-15 of their best songs, if you will, and I will give them a listen. And what the heck I've only heard a couple songs by Coldplay too, so .... :hmm:

    Ever sing WOWY during Miracle Drug?

    or vice versa? They're very, uh, compatible. I could see/hear them being combined on the tour. Give it a try next time you're listening to either.

    U2 Show: When did it come out?

    I picked up this book at Best Buy today and it's amazing. It must have come out today or a really long time ago, considering I don't see it mentioned in any recent threads

    What U2 song are you listening to right now?

    I'm listening to Mysterious Ways from the Zoo TV in Sydney video, freshly ripped onto my computer. If you're not listening to a U2 song, please spare us the lame excuses :wink:

    Dumb question: Is everyone's JT CD like this?

    Is the Exit track supposed to begin with the "Oh Great Ocean, Oh Great Sea..." coda from One Tree Hill? I mean, it's fine when listening to the album straight through, but kinda stinks when I want to put One Tree Hill in a separate playlist on my ipod.

    UTEOTW too low for Bono to do live?

    I always wondered why they jack this song up a couple steps live. Most other songs they don't deviate much from the original key.:der:
