Hello, my name is Vincent and I am 15 and have been a U2 fan since I was 11. U2 is of course my favorite band. Right now I've been listening to the Joshua Tree and Rattle and Hum era. I am also a guitarist who loves to cover The Edge. I still have a lot of songs to go. My favorite song to cover is City of Blinding Lights. I'm still getting to know this forum but have found a few helpful links to sites I've been looking for already. I'm out.
Hi everyone. I am fairly new here as well. I am an old-time U2 fan, since way back in 1983 when I saw them perform at the Orlando Jai Alai fronton in front of about 400 people. The Alarm opened up for them. Great show!
I've seen them about 8 times, and did meet Edge, Adam and Larry Mullen prior to the Achtung Baby tour in Lakeland. I spent several days outside where they were rehearsing and one night, the car stopped and Edge, Adam and Larry came out to sign autographs. I actually got to talk to Edge. Very cool guy. Bono had left earlier in the day because of throat problems.
Anyway, would love to meet other U2 fans around the world. Been to Dublin and did visit Windmill Lane Studios many years ago. Saw the grafetti wall.
Can't wait for the new album and am hopeful I will see them again on tour. Without question the best band in the world! Rock on, guys!!
