1. Waterboys playing a gig in my hometown here tonight...random after they were used as intro music at Twickers last Sunday
  2. I didn't realise they were touring. Playing Manchester in October.
  3. Not sure they are...annual riverside music festival that goes on here for a month or so. Think this is the climax
  4. They definitely are. Got a whole host of shows coming up in October and November throughout Europe.
  5. Old school GA...probably caused multiple deaths and serious injuries ! (only joking we all survived, I was at the back at Twix)

  6. Anybody in Melbourne want to come see
    The U2 Show Achtung babies in October.
  7. Funny... I was just reading an article on MSN.com from the business insider on the 30 best-selling music artists of all time, ranked by platinum albums... U2 ranks at #20 with 16 platinum (12 of which are multi platinum, or diamond) which basically means, even what we (or they) consider to be the poorest efforts have all sold more than most bands ever dream of selling. (October and NLOTH both sold at least 1 million - a feat most bands would kill for)

    The only album not to break a million was SOI, which is no surprise given it's delivery and the state of physical sales when it was released...
