I went to see Man in black this week and I'd rather sit in a nice theatre and see something real rather than sit in a big stadium watching an arrogant ****** on a video screen.
I also forgot to mention the fact that Bono is an arrogant talentless ****** so I can't bring myself to go.
Actually I now remember what happened when I went to see them all those years ago in Montreal. It was a Friday night and we had all met for drinks all my mates were going so I bought a spare ticket off one of them. When we got to the stadium the ticket touts were practically giving them away
Not to mention that Bono is an arrogant ******!

What about Achtung Baby? That was a brilliant album. Sadly though, everything after that is complete pants.

Looks like Melbourne is sold out! We've only got one date so it will be interesting to see if they put another one on. Although I nearly fell off my seat when I saw the seated tickets were $299! I like U2's music but not that much! Maybe I'll just go and stand outside the stadium and listen to it.

Actually if you can get to see The Australian U2 Show they are very good, the lead singer even looks like Bono and it's cheaper!

Nah, for me, after JT, they took on this method of writing music that I call "Music by numbers" very similar to what Coldplay do. Can't stand it as it is not in the slightest bit creative or daring and therefore makes every song of theirs sound the same.

Loathe and detest the word but the sentiment is spot on.

Yeah sorry about that word but I'm not sure there's anything else we can use for Bono .
Reminds me of a long car ride I had with the same mate at that time and we started a converstion toic "Rockstars you'd bulldoze into a pit" and Bono was prob number one. SOunds like a great thread topic
