Thanks muchly, I'm glad you all like them! I mainly posted them just to get the ideas out of my head, so sorry about the obscurity of the second one...:reject: It's based on this internet meme: which is explained thoroughly on this page (that's where I first found it)! And I forgot to...

Prompted by Zildjian's tag line 'the only serious choice': (Sorry for the bad quality of the picture!)

I know the one you're talking about; it was Diaries (of the Downcast, I think? I always just remember it as Diaries, sorry!), written by You'veDoneWhat, who I think took down her fan fics from this site. It was up on another fanfic site, U2-fanfiction.com, but that seems to be gone too. :(...

They were, actually; much better than I had expected. All the people I was talking to there were all very pleasantly surprised by their performance. The songs sounded similar at times, but in terms of holding the crowd I'd say they definitely succeeded. I met a couple of people who camped out...

Getting into the stadium was a nightmare when they opened the gates - at our entrace (U), at least. Everyone in the back of the queue surged forwards and we were pushed into each other and, when we got close enough, against the turnstiles. Not to mention some guy tried to duck down and get in...

U2 + Dermot Morgan = My new favourite U2 picture!:cute:

I'll try! Only staying 'till Sunday, though. I did get a chance to get to Donegall Street and saw it all 'Londonised', but there was no filming going on while I was there. Here's a very, very grainy shot of the ad: (It says - top: The Joshua Tree, bottom: New Album Out Now) :D

I was walking around Belfast today and saw a giant billboard advertising the new U2 album - The Joshua Tree.:lol: No good-quality photos, sadly; it was too dark and I didn't have time to fiddle about with my point-and-shoot camera's settings. It was incredibly funny, though, to see the cover of...

This isn't really a U2 video, but it made me laugh! YouTube - Nathan is Bono! This is the guy set to play Ivan McCormick in the 'Killing Bono' film, by the way!

Sorry! :happy: I can kind of see where they're coming from. The difference between the BBC and other tv broadcasters is that the BBC is funded by the tax payer, not by advertisers. As such, they're expected to be unbiased and not pander to one group of people over another, as the tax payer...

There's a facebook page for the film (it's amazing what you discover when you're supposed to be revising) and earlier today there were two pictures on it (the one with Ben Barnes in costume - the one linked earlier - and that guy). I thought I'd do some tenuous linking and suggest the...

It's Stand Up Comedy for me as well. I don't hate it, I just think it suffers from the 'sloganeering' (as Neil McCormick aptly put it) in Bono's lyrics. While the concept manages to remain slightly more subtle in other tracks like Crazy Tonight, the abundance of lines like, "It's like a small...

Maybe Matt Collins (this guy)? His photo's up on the Killing Bono facebook page and his name's not on imdb yet. Doesn't say much though, he could be any random person really! It interested me that his was the only fan pic on the page other than Ben Barnes' one though... :hmm:

I have one question: Where do you live? I may be moving there! Alan and Adam not only have the good looks going for them (they've both aged extremely well) but have the most amazing voices in the world to boot! I swear I could just sit and listen to either of them talk all day and not get bored...

I went into my city centre yesterday with the intention of picking up some (RED) bits and bobs at Starbucks and Nike. At Starbucks they didn't have the Love cd, but I bought some of the (RED) gift cards for myself and some of my Starbucks-loving friends! Plus, free extra cream, extra shot, extra...

It's an excellent read; I've only had it 3 days and I'm already over half way through it! Neil's a great writer, it's little wonder the band wanted him to co-write their autobiography. I've heard good things about At The End of the World as well, I'll have to get around to reading it soon!

I know, it made me smile seeing it in my twitter feed as well. :happy: I'm in the middle of reading Doppelganger too, so both book and tweets are keeping me highly entertained!

You can also see Bono's monologues scroll on Larry's screen (most noticibly at the start of Elevation at the Rose Bowl broadcast - "Are you ready to get off the ground?" is clearly seen on Larry's screen a good few seconds before Bono actually says it. Unfortunately neither the video clip of...

Those Converse trainers = :drool: Oh, the laces are really cheap! I'd have dig out my own pair of (not RED :sad:) Converse from the back of my wardrobe, though (I don't think they'd go well with the brown trainers I wear most of the time)! When I checked my twitter home page today I had three...

What I thought after reading whatdoestheinternetthink? about the band on atu2.com: Also wanted to say I've had many lulz from this thread, so thankies! :D

This one from a video of SBS in Berlin: panteha36 (3 days ago) Show Hide please sut up yalking bull shit..;) the song bloody sunday belongs to iran and i think you even don`t knoww where Iran isss. soo please stop talking that way Gotta love the ignorance, eh? :lol: :up: I'm 21 and I...

For the end of this line I keep hearing, "pink and reds," though search me as to how that ties in. :scratch: I take it there are no lyrics in the booklet? I'm in love with the song anyway, and it has been stuck in my head for the past couple of days. I'm afraid to buy a copy of the remaster in...

I took a First Aid 'basics' course twice (once to renew the previous one). That was years ago though, and thankfully I haven't needed to use it. I've actually been told by medics in my family not to use it, because the person suffering or their family could sue you if you did any further damage...

Summer Rain. Please, let them play Summer Rain! I've searched (on Google Maps, admittedly) for a café or fast food restaurant around the area, but with no success. I think if you want food you're going to have to head into the city, or possibly see if the Croke Park hotel will do quick lunches...

:up: Seriously, 16:00 on the day is being overly optimistic on the organisers' part. The tour's already had people queuing for days in the GA line, so I don't see how they could think two hours before showtime is in any way plausible. It could very well end up that the fans will queue to be in...
