1. Not sure they are...annual riverside music festival that goes on here for a month or so. Think this is the climax
  2. They definitely are. Got a whole host of shows coming up in October and November throughout Europe.
  3. Old school GA...probably caused multiple deaths and serious injuries ! (only joking we all survived, I was at the back at Twix)

  4. Anybody in Melbourne want to come see
    The U2 Show Achtung babies in October.
  5. 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...
  6. I see Bono wears his claddagh ring facing opposite of the way it should face when you are married.. Does anyone know why he is wearing it this way?

    That's one of the things that kinda annoys me about SOI because even though most of us thought it was at least a decent album ( I thought it was very good) the sales look terrible and in years to come the fact they gave it away won't matter to people so it's basically ruined the consistency they had in big selling albums. Don't get me wrong I wasn't one of the people complaining about the free give away I just think it's a shame in terms of for records and statistics.
