U2 VERTIGOView MessagesViewing posts 1 to 38 of 38 messages posted.
“OOPS!! the album is actually called How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb. We listened to the album tonight (it goes on sale in the morning). This is definatly a progressive rocker for the boys from Dublin. I'll have to listen to it a few more times to get a solid handle on it, but I say it is a two thumbs up must buy. Besides Vertigo, Track 4 love and peace or else is fantastic. There are a few political/religous references, but that's what U2 does. GET DISMANTLED!! last edited: 11/22/04 11:36:39 PM” 11:36:15 PM 11/22/04 “Political references from U2? Who would've thought? [/sarcasm] Anyway, Vertigo is killer, and I'm sure the rest of the album is as well. I'm trying to decide whether to buy the whole CD from the store, or whether to just get the Album from iTunes. How's the artwork?” 11:39:44 PM 11/22/04 “Simple. Coarse grain black & whites and song lyrics. There are 3 different CD packages available, I am guessing the more dinero you shell out the more you get, ie DVD & video features as well as more detailed liner notes.” 11:58:43 PM 11/22/04 “I LOVE Vertigo. I LOVE U2. I make people shut up every time the iPod commerical comes on TV. LOL!! This is my next planned CD purchase (last was Maroon Five). Can you believe these guys have been rockin' since the early 80s???!?! I remember their first videos on MTV (uh oh, I feel like a line in that "Stuck in 1985" song. LMAO!) Truly a great band!!!” 12:05:46 AM 11/23/04 Since the 70's “Boy dropped in 1979, but they really didn't hit it big until Sunday, Bloody Sunday in 1983 with the War album.” 12:12:07 AM 11/23/04 “i've never really been a big U2 fan. i know they're fantastic and all, but i could never get into them.” 12:24:53 AM 11/23/04 “"know they're fantastic and all, but i could never get into them." id say something about the total lack of logic inherent in that statement, but i like you and i wanna remain friends : P u2 is one of those bands that get better as they get older. chili peppers is another band like that” 12:58:46 AM 11/23/04 “ok first off it's 2 am. second off, what i mean is that i know they are one of those "great" bands, i just don't prefer their music.” 1:04:45 AM 11/23/04 “just pickin on ya, darlin. have a good night” 1:09:01 AM 11/23/04 “pick this ! heh” 7:26:05 AM 11/23/04 “I'm personally tired of having these pretentious over the hill "rockers" shoved down our throats.” 7:36:31 AM 11/23/04 “So Nigal, what about the Rolling Stones don't you like.” 7:48:28 AM 11/23/04 “I found a track the other day of REM doing U2s "One" acoustic with bongos. It's pretty sweet.” 7:53:28 AM 11/23/04 “over the hill? sure pretentious? maybe more talent in their little fingers than you could fantasize about while you play policeman on trailtalk? absolutely” 7:59:48 AM 11/23/04 ““So Nigal, what about the Rolling Stones don't you like.” They are over played and have even less talent than U2.” 8:22:04 AM 11/23/04 ““over the hill? sure pretentious? maybe more talent in their little fingers than you could fantasize about while you play policeman on trailtalk? absolutely” Ya just can't ignore me can ya? Why don't ya hit the trips page, sign up for the girlz only trip and go steal some more panties?” 8:23:19 AM 11/23/04 “Scorchy, did you flick a booger at Crash Boom Bang?? Yeah, I thought so. Good one! :-)” 8:26:55 AM 11/23/04 “i agree w/Nigal. ewww, i feel so dirty.” 8:30:35 AM 11/23/04 “lol” 8:43:06 AM 11/23/04 “Sorry, this is a thread of praise for U2 and I shouldn't be bashing them like this. I'll leave ya all alone now... btw- Hendrix still sucks.” 8:46:40 AM 11/23/04 “you give yourself too much credit nigal. im just commenting on your posts just like i comment on anyone elses posts. now, why are you so fixated on me? personally, ive moved on from our butting of heads. i suggest you do the same” 8:48:05 AM 11/23/04 “There's nothing to move on from. I suggest ya just stick to commenting on everyone else's posts and skip mine. Nobody like a smartass and no one likes having there every opinion and post judged by a pervert that steals women's dirty underwear on group hikes. Now...skip along Skippy.” 8:51:33 AM 11/23/04 “if your old lady would wipe they wouldnt be dirty. move on, honey, move on.” 9:06:40 AM 11/23/04 “Ha! My wife isn't a TTer and from what I hear you prefer the ABHI panties. Ya know, already been hiked in panties? sick sick sick. I heard you were into the bacon ring stuff but to actualy steal someone's panties when they are out dayhiking? That's just over the line man.” 9:11:13 AM 11/23/04 “This place is awesome!! LmFaO,,,,{sniffffffff,,,sniff}” 9:12:57 AM 11/23/04 “mmmmmm bacon” 9:13:05 AM 11/23/04 “cmb disappears and i have to take up his bacon ring mantle? oh man. the sins of the crazy are visited upon the crash” 9:15:48 AM 11/23/04 “Ring? I am going to burn a copy of this tonight when I get home. I have heard a few songs and they sound good. I have to make a second copy and get over to the cemetary as well. Good friend of mine that passed away a few weeks ago loved U2 and was drooling at the chance to get this album. Going to take a cd player over on Wednesday or Thursday and play a few songs for him.” 9:17:05 AM 11/23/04 “Stand in the corner--------both of you! NOW! You should be ashamed of yourselves, calling yourselves grown men. Impeccable!” 9:18:36 AM 11/23/04 “if you wanna talk about pretentious lead singers and bands, how about michael stipe and r.e.m. shiny happy people my ass. look over there. its michael stipe masturbating in the corner losing his religion” 9:19:37 AM 11/23/04 “Funny how the shlt trail always leads back to Crack Banger huh? LOL! I'm a little boy trapped in a man's body anyhow. :) OK, so back on topic...how bad does U2 suck anyhow? LOL! And I'm out of here!” 9:21:08 AM 11/23/04 “i'm really sorry to hear about your friend, WK.” 9:23:53 AM 11/23/04 “Thanks lyra.” 9:26:34 AM 11/23/04 “Wow, WK, that sucks. Sorry to hear about your friend. Now, that said, I want all the shiny people in this corner here, and all the happy people in that corner there, and face the wall. ...say, didn't Denis Leary do a bit about separating the shiny and happy people? Sounds kinda familiar.” 8:52:30 PM 11/23/04 “This spoken word interpretation of a classic U2 song made my day. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_vv12NSSZ4 last edited: 10/08/07 11:36:37 AM” 11:36:14 AM 10/08/07 “That's funny!!
