Originally posted by drewhiggins:The U2 fans are fantastic for discussions, yeah. As opposed to half the Michael Jackson fans, who have their heads in their asses, sadly. Most rock bands have great fans I've noticed as opposed to pop, where there's a strange kind of vibe to them.
The Joshua Tree is what made me a fan. But then I heard Original Soundtracks and became a diehard fan, and here I still am.

I went home, watched it for the rest of the day then bought U218 singles with the live tracks on iTunes, then AB and HTDAAB, by that time it all had gone downhill.
