    Whatever happened to just playing music??

    Unbelievable show last night at Gillette for so many reasons.....the sound was as perfect as any concert I've ever heard, the stage was the most insane thing I've ever seen out of my millions of concerts I've been to, and the set list was near perfect. But there was one HUGE problem....THE...

    Visually speaking, how does the Vertigo stage rank?

    Just curious what you all think of the Vertigo tour's stage/lighting. I hated this DVD when I bought it. Watched it only once or twice because I think it falls so far short of Slane and Boston. It's been collecting dust for over a year now but for whatever reason I seem to have found a new...

    Electric Co. vs. Entire Zooropa Album

    If you could have one or the other what would it be? Is one song - Electric Co. - better than an entire album - Zooropa? I say yes. A resounding 'yes'. The live Electric Co. showcases U2 at it's finest. It shows them for what they do best - ROCK. Edge rips it up with perhaps his best...

    You Won't Like This - Bands That Should Retire

    One more for ya....my I WILL FOLLOW Cover

    What can I say, I've got the day off today and I'm just banging away at a little U2.....Here's I Will Follow. Unfortunately, there are a couple of klunker notes coming out of the harmonic interlude but I was so happy with the intro that I didn't feel like doing it over just yet.......I wanted...

    Take Two - My NEW YEARS DAY Cover

    Ok, so I finally got a chance after work today to sit down and redo this. I do think it's a helluva lot better than the one I posted last week. Not to say it's 100% perfect because it's not. But if you gave the last one a listen then I think you'll see a huge improvement on this one...

    My New Years Day cover

    Tell me what you think of this. I just sat down today and belted this out. Overall, I think it sounds damn good for just figuring it out today. I must have had my head up my ass during the solo because it sounds like I'm hair off the tempo...not sure why that is. But how's the tone? How...

    The Play With U2 Tab books/CD

    Have you guys seen these new tab books/CD?? Holy freaking shit, man, unbelievable! If you really want to nail the Edge's playing to some of their best songs you've got to get these books. I bought the 1980-83 book and I'm blown away. Man, can this guy play U2! Awesome stuff.

    What's the deal with Still Haven't Found...Looking For

    I play this song tuned down 1/2 step and it sounds very cool. But every time I see Edge play it, he's got a capo at the third(?) fret. How is he playing it this way? Mike

    Red Rocks VHS - Electric Co Bonus!

    This is probably very old news to most of you, but there must be some out there that might be interested in this..... I FINALLY got around to picking up the Under A Blood Red Sky VHS of the Red Rocks concert. First off, wow...it's phenomenal. It's the only officially released concert I didn't...

    Studio vs. Live: These songs differ the most

    Some songs come to life in concert, and some seem to lose something. Not that there's ANYTHING wrong with seeing them live, of course. Basically, what I'm saying is, here are some of my choices for the most dramatic differences between a songs studio and live counterpart. Beautiful Day -...

    When Love Comes To Town - "Best Of" worthy?

    I'm still new to these boards and trying to get a feel for what the U2 masses think on certain topics. This one has to do with "When Love Comes To Town" on the Best of CD. My opinion is that there is no way this should have made the cut over COUNTLESS better choices. Of the many "Best Of"...

    The Song 'Zooropa' - What's the verdict on this one?

    I've only been on these boards for a couple of days and am very curious what others think of Zooropa the song. Personally, I've liked it right from the beginning. Whenever I tell people this, their jaws drop and they're like, "What??? You've gotta be kidding!" I think the worst part of this...

    Surprised and Disappointed in many of you

    New to these boards but certainly not new to U2. I gotta say, I'm shocked at what I see written about ATYCLB and HTDAAB. What's with the amount of posts and threads slamming these two albums?? Wow. Are you people crazy???? ATYCLB is tremendous. For one thing, it gave us Walk On......EASILY...
