  1. you are all so cruel my tiny little heart is broken, weep








  2. Onto another subject - has it ever been doscussed how Bono's voice has been better since 2009 than it was from 97 - 2006? It seems very odd..did he start seeing a vocal coach? Did he start taking something? Just seems weird.
  3. the beginning of the SOI promo tour was a bit abysmal, to be honest but yeah, didn't he have breathing problems for a while during that time period? especially during pop and I remember this scary picture of him with an oxygen (?) mask during the elevation tour... maybe he takes better care now.

    ZOO TV tour, I can't even say why. Popmart is much more my thing. But, I take your thoughts to heart, Bart, and I'll download these shows you mentioned to listen and hopefully feel the same excitement you do :-) thanks for sharing your thoughts! ;-) such input most often hold the best inspiration :-)
    Wow, you aren't into Zoo TV? HOW?

    Maybe the setlists aren't that exciting, not much changes etc. but the band has never been and never will be better than during that tour.

    See I didn't know that. I know during Pop he had some kind of allergic reaction to a desert weed or something? (?) but who knows.

    And yeah, the SOI promo tour was just okay. I'm sure he's been practising and practising getting those vocal cords loosened up for the tour though.

    yes, exactly! also, I found the picture I remembered:



    I don't know what the cause was... maybe stress or strain?

    well, I can't really say why..... to be honest, I guess I never really gave it a try. I should, I'm getting aware of this now. Seriously. I mean, I always thought of Zoo as one of THE biggest things, but I hardly listen to any gigs from that tour. I will do so tomorrow via ipod and then give some feedback here, ashamed promised
  8. Hey, leave Kirsten alone! I actually relate to your story Kirsten. Yes, ZooTV was like the best thing ever if you went to one of the shows. Myself, I spend way more time with the 80's boots.
    Don't let the bastards grind you down, my friend.
  10. Yep. We had it as show of the month last September. We even had a liveshow, were you there?
  11. afraid not, missed the bash stumbled upon it by accident the other day and have been listenting to it a lot! great pick for boot of the month indeed, can only recommend.
  12. Best October boot, in my opinion.
