  1. Well then.

    Apart from Reclinerman we all seem to feel pretty much the same. We all agreed on the poor songs (mainly the new ones massively under-rehearsed) and general poor performance by Bono. But we all felt the show wasn't as bad as some press would have you believe.

    Sound-wise it earns its rating of 4-stars here.

    Performance-wise sub-par by U2 standards and if you want a really good representation of Popmart look to Mexico, Leeds or Sarajevo (to see how a show can be amazing even with fucked up vocals).

    As Gerard says, next show please. I believe Reclinerman wants a JT show this week. I hope he logs on to give the boot tonight as I can't download next week. Plus Megaupload would be good for Ali.

    Thanks for that Dan...
    But don't let that keep you Reclinerman, if it is only on Rapidshare I'll either find a way to get it or just won't take part in the round table this time.

    Thanks Gerard...you guys are all very kind...thanks!
  6. I'm not going to be able to listen unless by some chance the show chosen is one I have already. I have an early start tomorrow and have to go to bed now. I'll sit this next one out.

    Not during the week. As you know I work away during the week at the moment and the work computers won't allow downloading. It's all on a closed network too with no Wi-Fi so I can't hook up the laptop.
    Can't see any way around it. Unless we choose now.....

    would it be so bold of us to choose ahead of reclinerman? If Ali is still here I would let her choose. Me, you and reclinerman have already picked shows

    I'd quite happily let Ali choose, seems only fair. But can't see his name online, so maybe he's gone. I'm gonna have to go, I'll find a way around it (maybe I can get the show Saturday or something, just be limited timewise). It's not the end of the world.

    Catch you later. Have a good evening mate.

    You know... I wouldn't mind, but we need Joshua Tree up in here because of the new reissue. I just called a spot because I had a good show choice.

    Fire away - if you do it now, I've got time...
