Originally posted by simulacra: Hello all. My name is Tim, and I live in Grand Rapids, MI, and am originally from Buffalo, NY. I have been enjoying this site for a while now, and find it to be a completist geek's dream. It is well conceived, organized, and user friendly.
I have been a U2 fan since around 1983, when a buddy turned me on to War. I am part of the apparent consensus in that Achtung Baby is probably my fave, while counter-cultural in that I also dig Zooropa a lot. The experimental and maverick side of U2 is what made them so interesting to me, which they have, alas, traded for "Biggest Band in the World" status. I suppose I am substantially a product of my generation's Postmodern sensibilities, which has its advantages and disadvantages.
But I digress. Cool site, and thanks for the service.
