1. oh I haven't seen this before (i.e. neither the film not that part of it) -- isn't it great how he can just laugh about himself? it's perfect and I'm sitting here with a huuuge grin on my face our guitar hero, the zen master, the rock god - he reveals the secret behind the magic things he does with his guitar and simply has to grin himself. That's one of the reasons I love these guys. Awesome awesome awesome

    It's not like he takes himself particularly seriously. Which is one of my favourite things about him.
  3. I'm thinking that I have to admit I underestimate our band's rhythm section, which is bass and drums. Whenever I listen to live recordings, I follow along the melody part that is Bono and Edge. That's my way of listening. I "notice" the playing of Larry and Adam, but for me it's all about guitar and vocals. Difficult to put into words.
    But I was just listening to that Edge Sound thing that Sergio shared the other day, where the sound of Edge's guitar is filtered out of the live recordings. All you hear is Larry's drumming and Adam's bass, with a bit of Bono's vocals. But the main thing is the rhythm section. And I found myself listening in awe, it was like I never really listened to what those two contribute to the band's sound. It is big, it is a driving force. Absolutely impressive. I had a huge "wow" moment that actually lasted for more than two hours while I listened to that stuff.

  4. I had a dream recently that Adam Clayton got his own reality show...

    I watch way too much VH1.
  5. I had a dream that I was at a store where you can buy magazines and stuff and that they had an action that you could get the new U2 album when you bought some other stuff from U2
    So then I bought The Unforgettable Fire CD and then I woke up
  6. right now I'm thinking I should take a U2 hiatus because the whole fandom keeps me online daily and way too often. I don't know.

    Welcome.


  8. yeah. I think I'll even expand this to an online hiatus. Saves a lot of time I need elsewhere. And I'm going off topic with this
  9. important thing is to keep U2 and all they mean wherever you spend your time
  10. I miss U2!! I need a new fix....
  11. earlier today I was listening to "Walk to the water" again after a long time, and sometimes I can't believe how brilliant this song is.
