I wasn't a big fan of How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb, but I haven't heard much else. Is Joshua Tree a good one to get?

maddox is the funniest person ever

[QUOTE=magicbus]And I wouldn't get all worked up over what Maddox says about U2. He's a big faggot, but [B]usually is pretty funny too[/B].[/QUOTE]

We've already covered this. kthxbye

[QUOTE=Maddox]Yet another fan on a message board had this to say about "Miracle Drug:"

I think that Bono turns pop culture upside down with the line "I've had enough of romantic love."

Wow, how profound. Look out pop-culture! Bono has had enough of "romantic love." Here comes Bono and his idiotic fans to make ambiguous jabs at you. [/QUOTE]

And that's pretty funny right there.

[QUOTE=Medopalis]That would be funny, if it just wasn't so radically wrong. Saying U2 released some of the worst songs of last year is moronic, and it's not even put in a funny way. But yeah...U2's stuff in the 1980s was great, as was Achtung Baby, then they were pretty crap, up till ATYCLB, and How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb is their best album in ages. And The Edge is someone who's underrated by a lot of people out there.[/QUOTE]

Very true. I thought it was a great album.

[QUOTE=thickasabrick]why the hell is badmoon in such a bad mood?

i was talking about good slide guitar songs...you were talking about root canal. i think one relates to classic rock a little more, seeing as i mentioned bands and songs, and you mentioned teeth and freezing gums. i dont mind people/myself getting off topic, but at least make it music related in some way.


and i love U2, they are an amazing band. i was kinda worried they would release their version of St Anger, but How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb has some good songs to offer. Even if they aren't as catchy as some of their earler songs, the musicianship is still there.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, badmoon seems a little pissed off about something. The random being mean and all.


[QUOTE=jpjrulestheworld]I wasn't a big fan of How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb, but I haven't heard much else. Is Joshua Tree a good one to get?[/QUOTE]

Yes, it's great. I would suggest it to anyone.

On a side note, madoxx is not funny. He's pathetic and maybe 1 in 5 of his articles is the least bit entertaining. He's seriously ran out of clichéd opinions to give his version of and needs to stop. Paronoidd is the much better ranter :).

[QUOTE=magicbus]While watching The Last Waltz, I noticed Neil Young had something hangin out of his nose. I figured it was just boogers or something, but when I was reading about the movie on another site, I realized it was something else. Cocaine! Just a little though, cause the huge chunk he really had there was edited out.

Hehe, Neil Young is the man :thumb:. No wonder he always goes to crazy during his live performances.

Ahh, bending the rules I see :thumb: . And please, no need to tell me I "Should know better" while repping me.

Was Dave Gilmour Syd Barrett's replacement in Pink Floyd or was he already a member before Syd left?

I wasn't aware you needed to be put in your place and I wasn't going to bother disrupting the flow of conversation.

Hellos to you too :p. Did somebody put a lit match in your *** when you were sleeping or something?

that pissed me off, it would piss anyone off :eek: :(

They brought him in for awhlie to cover for Syd when he messed up, so technically they were both in the band at one point, but he wasn't always in from the beginning. When Syd got too messed up to handle, they just kicked him out and kept Gilmour in.

Here, let us all take it this way.

[U]Don't bitch to me about spam![/U]

I bought:

CCR - Willy & The Poor Boys
Polyphonic Spree - The Beginning Stages of...
Fugazi - Repeater

Woodstock, I finally found Jeff Beck - Truth. Tell me when you want me to send it to you. :)

Fine, spam and bring your personal issues into the thread all you want. But if a mod threatens to close the thread because it's getting too spammy and chat boardy I'll be pissed.

[QUOTE=Medopalis]Gilmour also pretty much taught Barrett guitar, which has always struck me as pretty odd, considering the order in which they were in the band...[/QUOTE]

I didn't know that

/adds to classic rock knowledge

and its good to see everyone is in a good mood

Okay here, my first post reguarding the subject was basically a hello. Now we know your one to make his presence recongized. Then someone ask me a question or statement needing an answer/response. Now, I'm not one to snub someone off. I answer questions. So, to live up to your past statement, we will all have to stop telling off a n00b replying to the first post, we can not state our presence, or acknowledge when one of us has a birthday, ect.

There your problem is solved ;)

Miracle Drug and Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own are good tracks off How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb. The Edge playing his characteristic guitar technique to good effect, soft and relaxing to listen to :thumb: . Vertigo in my opinion is a very average song from U2 but the album is solid. Not a stand out album but not crap, they have never really released a crap record. Joshua Tree and Achtung Baby are probably the best, but I like all of their albums. The Slane Castle DVD is also good, Bono puts so much emotion into his singing and stage presence and truly is himself when he is on stage and his lyrics are straight to the point, quite a charismatic stage man.

Does anyone know if last year's REM greatest hits is any good?

[QUOTE=clown_phobia]Does anyone know if last year's REM greatest hits is any good?[/QUOTE]

I would say no, and the "new" song for the album is just a reworking of end of the world as we know it.

^Yeah, it lacks "It's the End of the World" though. :)

JPJ, did you realizes Gov't Mule's recording of "Effigy" is a cover of CCR? I just found out for myself :(.

[QUOTE=Badmoon]^Yeah, it lacks "It's the End of the World" though. :)[/QUOTE]

Is that true? Hm... i guess it's not as good as I'd hoped.

Not familiar with efficy, so which CCR song?





And is Rock not Roll's account banned for every and what for?

:eek: I was unaware :(

[QUOTE]Not familiar with efficy, so which CCR song?[/QUOTE]

Gov't Mule covered Creedence Clearwater Revival's "Effigy". The titles the same. :)

[QUOTE=clown_phobia]Is that true? Hm... i guess it's not as good as I'd hoped.[/QUOTE]

If you want REM, just get/have Automatic for the People and that will be all you need/want.

To Badmoon: I just bought Truth yesterday, thanks anyway.

Tell me where you guys found The Last Waltz???!?!?!?!

[QUOTE=Badmoon]Gov't Mule covered Creedence Clearwater Revival's "Effigy". The titles the same. :)[/QUOTE]

Which album?

[QUOTE=Creedence Clearwater]Which album?[/QUOTE]

I believe The Deep End: Vol. 1. But I may have mixed 1 and 2 up.

To Woodstock: Sorry :(

Yeah, I didn't think it was of an album of theirs I owned.

Couldn't tell you. My dad's had it for awhile and I just pulled it out the other day.

And to Creedance, I have to spread rep around before giving it to you. I'll try though.

Funny story: for christmas my dad got this new Neil Young Greatest Hits thing and then says to me, "Guy, have you ever heard of him (shows me the album with Young on it) its Neil Young, and he is good".

I have that Greatest Hits album. It's a pretty good selection, but it's missing Cortez the Killer.

There's major Beatles influence in the Polyphonic Spree's music. It's easy to hear.
