I could never get over the dedication of RTSS to any armed forces - how is it a song related to the military? It's about drug addiction for god's sake lol...

And Ger, I suggest you down something alcoholic lol.

Bono shot himself in the foot big time at that twickenham gig. I lost a bit of respect for him (as did a lot of the British press)

Modest aswell. lol.

Strange, I never picked up on that myself - then again I was 15 and in the middle of my GCSEs so it was unlikely I was going to pay much attention lol...

as an Irishman (living an hour down the road from Derry) my ears pricked right away. . . .then they belted out a decent version of Streets then I forgot about it (for that night at least)
