Rest of U2 Survivor: The Joshua Tree - Round 2

[Axver]

Har, har, funnay.

By the way, if you'd like some of the tree on that hill, come up to Sydney, I have a few logs from it in my attic.

Geez, Liam, you could've tried. The tree was removed by the Auckland council, not by a vandal - the vandal merely attacked it.

I give your insult an F. Typical Sydneysider.

 

[liamcool]

At least I don't spend my days sitting at home insulting people from a random city in a country I live in.

Yeah, you insult entire countries you've never been to and make insinuations about bestiality that reflect your own desires. Classy.

You are such a hypocrite, Mr "I Hate America Because They Have No Sheep To Shag".

 

[Axver]

You are such a hypocrite, Mr "I Hate America Because They Have No Sheep To Shag".

See, there you go again with the bestiality insinuations. What's with the fascination with our woolly friends? Is there something you'd like to tell us?

 

[Diemen]

Add one more to Red Hill's tally.

And all you people voting for Mothers suck.

Well, you called me at 3am in the throes of passion with something that went "baah" and I ran with it, you sick freak.

 

[phillyfan26]

In God's Country.

That's how good this album is.

 

[Axver]

4/12/82. You can do better than that.

 

[coolian2]

I must admit, i voted for Mothers because i suffered from the same Bullet memory disorder as Cori.

Bastard. Quite right, it's 4 December 1982, Birmingham. Got one for me?

 

[Axver]

I must admit, i voted for Mothers because i suffered from the same Bullet memory disorder as Cori.

You know, if both of you asked the mods to change your votes, it'd be 7 to Bullet and 6 to MOTD right now.

 

[coolian2]

Good, because I don't want to take the kitten to One Tree Hill. I mean, the hill itself is good, but it's in Auckland. Auckland.

I've only been to one worse city in my life. Sydney. I think I'd almost be tempted to go to Baghdad instead of having to spend a day with sour, rude, semi-incoherent Aucklanders.

[incoherent rudeness that doesn't come across well as only text]

 

[Axver]

[incoherent rudeness that doesn't come across well as only text]

Yeah, it needs that kind of half-gibberish accent that seems to be unique to Aucklanders, mainly those on the south side.

 

[coolian2]

Dear Mods,

HALP

Love,
Ian

We're a much, much more civilised bunch here in East Auckland.

But i see most of the shite Aucklanders when i go to uni, and it sucks.

Not sure I've actually been out to the eastern suburbs. Or the western ones, for that matter. But I know aaaall about the southern and inner ones.

The North Shore seems nice.

[DreamOutLoud13]

Love,
Ian

Your name is Ian?

All this time I've been reading your screenname all as one word, 'coolian' as in, 'cool' with the '-ian' suffix. Wow

 

[coolian2]

You're pretty much OK if you stay the hell away from the southern suburbs and the city

That's Rome, July 93. The sixth. I read the thread earlier.

And of course, last time I was in Auckland, well, the airport's to the south and I stayed in the city for easy access to Mt Smart Stadium.

Bloody hell it sucked. I've never had such a bad time in my own country. I was actually happy to return to Brisbane - a feeling I have never felt before or since.

lol

It was cool in 1997, and i didn't even pick it.

Although i am cool.

 

[Axver]

Damnit, I was hoping you hadn't. Also, just noticed Ian beat you to it - you fail, just like a Sydneysider would.

How's this then?

1. 11 O'Clock Tick Tock
2. Out Of Control
3. Stories For Boys
4. Boy-Girl
5. 11 O'Clock Tick Tock


Comments: Incomplete setlist: a Hot Press article reports that 11 O'clock Tick Tock opened and closed and that all of U2:3 was played in succession.

 

[bonocomet]

I really can't choose yet.

 

[liamcool]

Easy one, 08/06/1980, Half Moon Club.

I can understand hating Auckland if you had to stay in the city and the trip to the airport was the biggest taste you got of the rest of the place.

If someone offered me a free place in the city i'd tell them to piss off, i'd rather pay $10 a day to take the bus in from out where it's nice.

There are times the Auckland city is nice, but i'd hate to have to spend more than an average Uni day there.

I haven't been into Auckland city since i went to Wellington. I'm going to be sorely disappointed when i do.

 

[Axver]

Easy one, 08/06/1980, Half Moon Club.

Damnit, I was hoping that set had escaped your notice.

How about this?

1. Twilight
2. 11 O'Clock Tick Tock
3. I Will Follow
4. Father Is An Elephant

Yes, it's complete.
