    Uneducated comments? He/she could say whatever they feel. That’s what these threads are about. Your comment is the one that comes off as ignorant

    The forum member said" U2 were lazy as fuck" which is the biggest load of manure I've ever heard to be playing new material at this stage of their career proves they are not ,while other bands of their vintage trade on 25 year old plus songs during their live shows U2 continue to defy the rulebook by releasing and playing new songs of course they are entitled to an opinion but it doesn't make it correct.

    Twice now you have insulted other members here. Keep it civil please, this is your last warning.

    Doesn’t make it correct? What makes your view correct? You know an opinion isn’t fact right? I feel this “supposed” setlist is terrible. I don’t feel I’m right or wrong because I know many will love it. it’s just how I feel when I see that list of songs. That’s how the world of art works.
  7. I would love a snippet of the coda. I'm not a fan of the rest of the song, I could live without it
  8. saying 'u2 is lazy as fuck' is pretty agressive and insulting as well and actually where the problem starts. Of course there's nothing wrong with a bit of positive critisism, but comments like that one have nothing to do with that and in fact Popmarter's reaction to that is not that far of the mark.

    I think if popmarter had ended his post with the word ‘yet’ then there wouldn’t have been an issue. I do think there has to be a line though when it comes to criticising the band, fair criticism not just throwing insults out there. It’s actually fairly easy to structure a sentence to turn it from an insult into a criticism.

    I think if people just use normal language instead of 'U2 is lazy as fuck', there wouldn't have been an issue as well. But appartently this is normal at a u2 2018 forum.
  11. To redirect the cool vibes - songs like ABOY and WGRYWH show that they are interested, and that pumps me up that we are in for a good time

    Yeah, I didn't like the vertigo tour (or htdaab) at all. However, Fast Cars and ABOY are great songs.

    Hope to hear one or both hahaha!
