Xanadu Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Anyone want to share the presale code? :) Also, please Bono. Give the politics a rest this time. You may not believe it, but no one really gives a shit what you think. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oracle Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 Maybe if they did a tour with reasonably priced tickets, I'd consider it. The closest show to me is Cleveland, and the cheapest ticket I've found is still almost 200 dollars for a RESALE. Ridiculous. They've already made enough money by latching onto whatever popular political topic is at the time, do they need to keep doing it? I'll just listen to the bootlegs.

ReRushed Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 Hey guys, our new album predictably sucks. Let's not release it and tour behind our past glories. U2, meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segue Myles Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 Hey guys, our new album predictably sucks. Let's not release it and tour behind our past glories. U2, meh. My attitude completely. I'd love to see them live if it was a strictly eighties era affair with little to no talking between songs and a ticket at most around £75. Am I asking too much? My love for U2 remains rooted in their past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toscanobarga Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 U2, along with Rush and Led Zeppelin are one of my top 3 bands, have been since day 1. But with this tour they have turned into their own tribute band. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystic Slipperman Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 I'd love to see them one more time.. Not sure if I can swing the Rose Bowl this weekend. We shall see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toscanobarga Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Not sure you will "see" them. They don't turn that big beautiful HD screen on until about 1/3 of the way into the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rushman14 Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 I saw them in Joshua tree as well yeah me too. I was actually just looking at tix for their show at the Rose Bowl this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How was what Rush did with the Time Machine tour any different than what U2 is doing on this tour ?I didn't know I was comparing Rush touring to U2 touring. And I don't think Rush shelved their new album and go on tour. To answer your question, probably not that much different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I did, but I didn't realize back then what a jerk Bono was and still is. I saw them on the Elevation tour, and my wife and I are going to the show next month. My wife is a huge fan. She's seen them on every tour since Joshua Tree and even seen them in Dublin. I'm not crazy about musicians ramming their politics down my throat, be it Bono or "Sweaty Teddy," but putting that aside for a moment, I enjoyed the 2001 show. I would think they were even better back then in their prime, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a band whose music I like for only a limited time period of their career and I have to ignore the artists themselves. I can't defend them as the really is a major douche Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReRushed Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Here's my issue with U2 - I couldn't care less about their politics or their hypocrisy. I have issue with them promoting themselves as continually releasing the album that's going to make them "take back the crown as the greatest rock band in the world." Time and time again I have to hear about how they are going to save rock and roll. And all they do is cruise in their musical comfort zone releasing songs derivative of songs they released 30 years ago. They do nothing interesting or challenging. But, way back in the 1980s and early 1990s they provided me with many lasting musical memories. I'll always like that U2. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

custom55 Posted May 18, 2017 Author Share Posted May 18, 2017 I can't wait to hear The Joshua Tree album start to finish, live. Good friends ( 8 of us ) , tailgate party at the stadium and U2 Joshua Tree, start to finish. Priceless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boots Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 (edited) I don't care about that band anymore. Their concert at the stadium was disappointing. It was like getting ready to lose your virginity and not having a you-know-what. A real let-down. Edited May 18, 2017 by Boots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicken hawk Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 OK, throw tomatoes but I saw the Joshua Tree tour in '87 at the Izod ( or whatever name it was back then ) and it was fantastic. I'm going just to hear this... http://youtu.be/xTd_irMT768 I went to that tour concert in Boston ! It was also fantastic ! ♥ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
