love u2 as well fatty.  great thread.

i was at the Joshua Tree tour concert, 30th row left of the stage...incredible.  10-26-87.

also went to the zoo tv tour a couple years later at arrowhead.  cold night.

i have so many favorite songs...i don't think i can pick just one.


unforgettable fire
streets
new years day
with or without you
the version of bullet the blue sky from the movie rattle and hum is pretty much rough ridin' incredible
one tree hill
all i want is  you
city of blinding lights

too many to list.  too too many.

He can never finish behind #1, because he doesn't want to admit he's actually a #2

Sunday Bloody Sunday is up there.  Not sure if it is a clear #1, but by God it must be discussed.

"One" is hands down their best song.  It isn't even close.  Voted one of the best rock songs of all time.

My neighbors (guy and a girl living in sin) were arguing about who was the better rock band, Smashing Pumpkins or u2.  He, like a man, favored 'mashing 'umpkins.  She liked u2, of course, because she has a vagina as does every u2 fan.  Their argument went a little something like this.


Girl: How can you argue with 'Beautiful Day'?
Guy: ...Did you really just ask me that question?
Girl: Yes, it's amazing.
Guy:  It sucks.  Everything u2 did sucks compared to the Pumpkins.  Oh wait sorry, I think I misunderstood...Are we arguing about who's the better rock band, or who's the better adult contemporary band?  Because if it's the latter then you're definitely right.

OMFG.  Anybody remember when an up-and-coming band from the 9th grade center named Podstar toured around with Mr. Easterday and the MHS Orchestra and they played Tonight Tonight? 

Was in middle school and thought for sure that I was witnessing the greatest thing since Kevin Lockett.   :cool:
