'A Sort of Homecoming' for me. U2 seem to be one of those bands that are scorned by those who haven't heard much of their music.

Dons_1988 Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 All this Ricksen shite is a pile of pish.He was an absolute roaster It’s over the top and I don’t indulge it but we’re still talking about a young man and his family going through suffering you can’t really imagine. And I’m guessing you don’t really know anything about him personally other than what you’ve seen in the media. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pozbaird Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 (edited) On the subject of U2... there used to be a record shop in Paisley called ‘Listen’, there was also one at the bottom of Renfield St in Glasgow. I went in there one day, could have been 79/80? The young bloke working there was over from Dublin, and he was playing a record on which the sound of the guitar knocked me out. I had no idea who they were so asked, and he said they were this new young Irish band that were kicking about over there. The song was ‘11 o Clock Tick Tock’. Have absolutely loved them since that day. I went to see U2 in Strathclyde University when they came over in 1981. Ticket was £1.75. Spoke to Bono after the gig, and he wasn’t an arse at all. Then I saw them in Tiffany’s Ballroom... and the venues got bigger every year after that. My favourite U2 songs are Electric Co, The Unforgettable Fire, Vertigo, Running to Stand Still, and Even Better Than the Real Thing.

There’s part of the above which has actually made me side with the annoying virtue signaller, he should have flattened you as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you read carefully, he said it was minging, so you've been a bit unfair there. Clearly, woodside has sampled the delights of donkey pish at least once in the past, and came to the conclusion that the taste didn't suit his palate. He gave it a go, but mule micturiate just wasn't for him. You're welcome, woodgate. I've got your back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
