Yes indeed, but that why it was so brilliant in the first place. It wasn't about some "underground" band fucking up the mainstream.........
It was about 'THE BIGGEST BAND IN THE WORLD' "abusing thier position" and "fucking up the mainstream. And personally, I believe that Bono is STILL in that position, and I wish he would STILL abuse it. Again, I saw Elevation in NJ a few weeks ago and it blew my mind, but this is a nitpicky matter that can only be discussed on a U2 message board, which is, uh, precisely where we are.
