Heh, good luck with U2 tickets, folks.......myself and the other 6 billion fans had a hell of a time with the presales........and it looks like scalpers got all of the good floor tickets........

Sigh. I hate Ticketmaster and corporate America.

I saw my favorite bands during my youth back in 83/84 like Van Halen, AC/DC & Molly Hatchet when it was the last time you could get concert tickets like getting a meal at a steakhouse before you had to sell your house to get tickets.

U2 is overrated. They're saying that their music is "new classic rock" but...double you tee eff do they mean?

Bono's just an Irish dude with sunglasses on who's got an opinion, man. Nothin' against the Irish or sunglasses, but he's not some bloody rock god. Everybody's got an opinion, anyway. *shrug*

Hahaha...I saw Colin Farrell doing Bono on SNL. It was great. He went on a Spanish-language talk show...y'know, "UNO! DOS! TRES! CATORCE!" ...so, SNL!Bono says, "Artistic expression." Yeesh. I thought artistic expression actually meant something, rather than just...doing your count off to the wrong number. I guess it's 'cause nobody's done a count off as "ONE! TWO! THREE! FAW!" since the sixties, eh? Teeheehee.

Anyway, sure. They can really do a catchy tune (i.e.: the annoying mess that is "Vertigo". Can't. Ever. Get. Away!) but...overrated. @_@ I think they're okay, but not anything completely fab to write home about. *shrug*
