KUEFC09U2 said:i was thinking about protesting at the next grammys, or ANYONE who gets into the ellipse next time, sit down inside it, lets make them know we want him to sneeze more, and LOUD because last time he did it, you just couldnt hear how he sneezed
right look forward to itramblin rose said:
ok, I'm in. I'm working on a sign right now to take to the the Barcelona show.
we understand that, and do feel sorry for you, but you need to relise that just because you didnt find it to be your best concert dosent mean everyone else thinks the same, i was just ready the reviews on u2tours.com, and there all saying it was amazing,girlhappy said:Oh,i am really sorry for believing that who ever loves u2 can understand ups and downs related to them It is really sad that u2 fans only want to prove who is right and use ugly words.The very same one who are "one" in the concert. I was just feeling a bit down and thought i would find some kindness, but like i "ve heard:It takes strength to be gentle and kind.

i was indeed. but the last few concerts have seen some great reviewsChizip said:
weren't you the one complaining about the poor fan reviews on u2tours.com?
2Hearts said:Sorry, but I was too young to see ZooTV live. Should I just take your word that U2 sucks now, and not go see them? You had your glory days as a U2 fan, so let some younger fans enjoy them while they are still the best band in the world. We don't need all the older folks telling us how we are being cheated, ripped off, and seeing a half-baked version of U2. I love every album from U23 up to HTDAAB, and I don't see any let up in quality. HTDAAB is essential U2 and I'm going to shout along to the new stuff with every ounce of energy I have. And besides, they're playing more songs from the early albums now than they have in the past 15-20 years. And what does the title of this thread suggest? You can't be a diehard if you love this tour? Screw that, I am a diehard.
but the sneeze is too low in the mix? maybe we should protest that the sound guy turns bono's sneezes up, or he should be firedAtomicBono said:
Afuckinmen. Everyone is allowed to have their opinions of course and if you think U2 is washed up this tour or whatever, then I'm sorry. However, you will find for every person that agrees with you, five people will disagree. U2 is still one of the best live acts ever and there's really no debating that (I personally think they're the best but THAT could be debated). To suggest they should retire is ridiculous.
Then again, maybe they SHOULD retire...I mean, this low level of sneezing is intolerable. It's outrageous to think that these days, most people that go to U2 concerts won't hear a single sneeze out of Bono. And the few reported sneezes have been way too quiet. Whatever happened to the days when not only Bono but also Edge would sneeze loudly, at least twice every concert? You're right KUEFC09U2, an ellipse sneeze protest is in order. We should probably also make signs. Our voices must be heard.

Why can't they just give us sneezes like during Pop or ZooTV, why?
KUEFC09U2 said:but the sneeze is too low in the mix? maybe we should protest that the sound guy turns bono's sneezes up, or he should be fired
come to think of it, i think even when bono does sneeze, he is just miming it, because i swear i seen him turn away from the mic, but i still heard a sneeze, but he wasnt anywhere near the micAtomicBono said:
Hmm, you've got a point there. Except I'm thinking that overall Bono just hasn't sneezed enough, and whenever he does he's just not into it. And have you even SEEN Edge sneeze? Neither have I.
It seems to me that no one in the U2 camp is doing their job properly, we should just protest them all. And Coldplay too, because they sound sort of like U2, so they're probably to blame for some reason.

It was fantastic.
2Hearts said:Regarding the ups and downs of being a U2 fan, I've taken long breaks from U2 before (up to 6 months). When I start listening to them again, it's sort of like falling in love with them anew. They inspire me more today than ever in the past. As I've said before, Miracle Drug is as passionate of a song as they've ever done, IMO. I'm going to see them in Nov, and even if the live experience isn't all that great (audience/sound has alot to do with it), I'll blast my U2 cd's all the way home. Hope you feel better about all of this.
KUEFC09U2 said:no its in your opinion that it cant compare to ZooTv, all i said was alot of people are finding this to be there best tour since then, just because you dont dosent mean everyone dosent, we all dont think the same as you,
am not questioning if your a "big fan" all i said was if your not getting what you want now, then you should move on,
and people have been fans alot longer than both of us, and are finding this just as enjoyable as anything they have done

blueeyedgirl said:Fuck Bono's sneezes, I watched Bruce Springsteen's Live in NYC DVD on the weekend (from 2000). 3 hours long and he ran around more than Bono did in 1983. That man is a fucking hero!!!!!

You are not a real fan.U2 is much better than bruce springsteen.. Everything U2 does is a good thing, they make no bad decisions!!!!!
Man did Coldplay suck on live8 or what.
and what terrible weather it is here...did anyone saw footage of the cure saturday or was that not broadcasted at all?
LJT said:
Ok first statement i know is sarcastic
Second one not so sure whether you did actually dislike Coldplay or not, really its the third line the question that throws me because i do know that was a serious question and therefore it made me unsure whether your second statement was sarcastic or not....
Anyway to answer your question i saw The Cure on the BBC highlights at around umm 2am...didn't sound too great in my opinion and i do like The Cure
LJT said:I think though this is The Cures first time with their new lineup though? Didn't Bob just get rid of 3 of the lineup and replaced them? Could just be a thing of getting used to their new setup and maybe that is why they didn't sound as great, because i did see them live on TV a few months back and they were great...
Anyway we got Sgt Peppers..its all i really need

I think one of them was replaced by a guy who had worked with The Cure previously for something like 10 years from 83-93 (sorry for my way-off information here, last time i read anything about it was months ago, i'm more a casual Cure fan)
