Definitely not. I'd rather watch Britains Got Talent. Though I think I'll have a couple of tinnies and watch The Song Remains the Same for the thousandth time instead, cos I'm a bit high on cellulose fumes.

I'd rather watch paint dry... watched the first 20 seconds and nearly fell asleep!

U2 is one of those bands that I really dont get- some of there songs are ok, but they seem to be a huge band with a distinctly average back catalogue to me. I have fairly eclectic tastes, but I dont think I would ever 'want' to hear any of their songs. Not that I dont mind listening to alot of them, but their just missing something.

Very over rated band, not that good as a live act, milked their appearance on Live-Aid for fame, MASSIVE TAX DODGERS, who is Bonio to tell us who to donate to when he is such a pratt ?

Looks like I wont be watching!

pre 1990 they wrote some very good music and i'd love to have been at red rocks to see them. Did see them on the last tour and they put on a performance. Thought tonight bono was stiff and wooden, afterwards he admitted the stage was very slippy and if started off scared to move.

On before them, Mumford & Sons much better

I agree, I also think that is when they should have stopped! I bought "How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb" on a whim one day and I might as well have set fire to the money, what a load of pants! I've heard better bands in my local!

Zooropa was their last good album (IMHO) and that was 17 years ago!
