TeeKay Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 Right so here it is, i am surprised that no one posted anything about this amazing Irish band, in which consists of Bono (aka Paul Hewson), The Edge (aka David Howell Evans), Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jr. formed in 1976, U2 is one of the most well known band in the world, not only because of their music, but also becasue of their involvment, especially Bono himself, in trying to get countries in Africa out of debts, encouraging people to help fight against aids I love their songs mostly because their are much more easy listening than other rock bands, and also the lyrics that makes you think. some of the songs are pretty political, and that's why their proposed tour to china was rejected :yuckky: *what the gov did was an absolutely disgrace to the chinese* :yuckky: otherwise my old man and i would have one of our lifelong wishes granted i am still determine to take my dad to see their concert one day anyway enough said, here are some of their pictures^^ feel free to chat about anything about them!!

SympathysSilhouette Posted March 11, 2007 Posted March 11, 2007 I love them too, but I wish they had called it quits after Achtung Baby. That was their best record and tour. I haven't cared much for their albums after that, with the possible exception of "All that you can't leave behind". Which was pretty much a retrospective itself of their 1980s work. Quote
TeeKay Posted March 11, 2007 Author Posted March 11, 2007 I Love U2! which is your favourite song/ album? Quote

TeeKay Posted March 15, 2007 Author Posted March 15, 2007 from that album, i think "sometimes you cant make it on your own" and "city of blinding lights" are the best, then "miracle drug", "Original Of The Species" and "vertigo" by the way, what do you think of the song they made with greenday? and the new songs in U218, with "window in the skies" being one of them?

GraceKelly Posted April 7, 2007 Posted April 7, 2007 Cheeeses crist, I'm their biggest fan EVER! Seriously, i know every song, every lyric, i know all about them, have all cd's, concert-dvd's and all I love them so much.. Their music thouch me like nothing else, it's wierd, but i sorta feel a special connection to them. Hard to explain They deserve all credit they can get for being so amazing, not just as the band, but also as persons. All they do for charity and for suffering human all over the world is just amazing, fantastic. And Bono is my favourite-person in the whole world, I adore him soo much. AND I recently got my brand new iPod U2-edition Best ever <3 Quote

TeeKay Posted April 22, 2007 Author Posted April 22, 2007 The Edge sold his favourite guitar in a charity fund raising. The favourite guitar of U2's The Edge has been sold at an auction that raised about $2.4m (£1.2m) for a charity set up in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. The Gibson Les Paul used on every U2 tour since 1985 sold for $240,000 (£120,000) Article in full: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6580901.stm God it must be so hard to part with your personal favourite, and after all of these concerts!
