There are just too many news outlets on the web, and they all have space to fill, and that's why when Edge says something to a Rolling Stone writer like "The reaction to the shows has been unprecedented," says the Edge. "From a really great start, it's just built and built and built. I'm happy to say bye-bye, because I don't think we could ever top it." every news site on the web jumps all over it, repeating the quote ad nauseam -- but, in almost every case, taking it out of context. Edge was specifically talking about the Vertigo Tour, not U2's career as a whole. But you'd never know it from the reporting and re-reporting that's going on. And the thing is ... if Edge was talking about U2 giving up touring altogether, don't you think Rolling Stone would've used that as the headline, rather than "U2 Look Back on U.S. Success"? Pack journalism runs rampant on this kind of thing. One site sees the quote, repackages it as a new story, and then everyone else follows suit. And it happens all the time ... think back just two weeks ago when every news outlet on the web seemed to pick up the "Bono feared his campaigning would get him kicked out of U2" story, which started with comments he gave on BBC Radio right before the new year. And no doubt it'll happen again soon -- sooner than any of us care to see it. there

hows the quality of the atlanta show.

ive known about this band for quite a while, its strange though because im probably one of the only people in georgia to klnow about them, theyre good...i would buy their album off amazon if it werent 30 bucks

hey scarlet, that miss sarajevo recording you uploaded is blocked ....do you have the whole u2 concert from the 19th in atlanta?

guitar or...piano

hey... thats not a questioon.

do anybody have live version of ms sarajevo from this tour, i was lucky enough to hear it in atlanta. but i wish to hear it again

the strokes you only live once and im not even a really big strokes fan, well im not a strokes fan really, but this is a good song

i got U2 live, it got some intersting stuff in it.

I THINK I HEARD HARD FI oops anyway do one of the lyrics go , "im trying to phone a freind" cause if they do thats one horrible song and one bad band

that..youre beautiful song is not good and the album cover is cheesy!
