  2. I think it sounds great! The horns are a really nice touch, and Bono sounds really good. I'll probably try to grab a copy of it for RSD.

    And some old songs not worth singing re-recording
  11. I like the idea of record store day.i hate the fact that the owners sell the good stuff on ebay for ten times the asking price.
