Just when you think U2 couldn't get any more pretentious, they send advanced copies of their new album to every rock station so that they can play one new song an hour for the rest of the week.

He's the only non-christian of the bunch and is about as aloof as they come.

Unless of course...I missed his recent baptism. [img]wink.gif[/img]

Bono? Pretentious? Sanctamonious? ..NO!!! Say it isn't true! [img]tongue.gif[/img]
I used to be into U2 until Bono started believing his own press too much (Basically around 'Joshua Tree'.) I liked the song they did for 'Batman Forever'(It was better than the film , anyway.) in the mid ninties, but other than that , they haven't turned anything out that
has done much for me. I still LMAO when Rollins talks about Bono in his books "He's the arch enemy--he must be destroyed." etc.. [img]wink.gif[/img] [img]biggrin.gif[/img]

I could care less what musicians are like. If I like the music, I like the music.
