I'll be at that gig too. Thought it would have sold out by now.

Man, it's funny how so many of us are like "HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!" when it comes to this band for the obvious reason, but at the same time - there's got to be a further link between us liking U2 and liking this band besides just "the singer is Bono's son".

I guess what I'm referring to is, there must be some kind of cadence to Eli's voice that we can all hear and say "oh I like this singer", and that adoration for a specific sound and tone has to be the same thing we like about Bono's voice, or at least it's similar. Their music also definitely has a sort of airy, new-wave timelessness to it that U2's older stuff had - despite the fact that it doesn't really sound like U2 at all either.

I'm excited to see where these guys go, and I really hope it's only up. For a long time I think a lot of people thought Coldplay were the heirs to the U2 throne, but that sort of dried up as they got more poppy and radio-friendly. It may be a little early to say so, and it definitely helps that Eli is Bono's son, but it'd be really cool to see this band become THAT big, and become THAT band. I'm not even sure if it's possible anymore with the current musical climate (rock is basically dead in the mainstream, at least here in North America) - but I'd love to see it happen. It'd be like Rock royalty passing the crown onto the son, etc.
