they're vastly overrated, just like the Beatles & Nirvana
to clarify, i prefer U2's older stuff over their new music

i don't think nirvana and U2 should be mentioned in the same breath as the beatles but about time for U2. one of the most successful and consistent rock bands of all time.

This is really good! I'm a huge fan of U2. They're very special to me. ;)
Bono is my first idol

I really prefer the old cd's, but HTAAB really sounds GREAT!!!! :cool: :rockon: it's sounds like in the beginninig and Bono sings the best...
I can't wait to see them alive...again... ;)

they're not necessarily overrated by the same amt. the beatles? least overrated. nirvana? most overrated (esp. since they pretty much started the demise of good music into commercialistic crapola). u2 falls somewhere in between. i guess the one thing i don't like is Bono's brilliant chorus on Vertigo: "yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah..." :wtf:

Ahh man that's sad, Nirvana are awesome. Listen to the song Aneurysm by Nirvana and you will never say that they are overrated again ... lol.

Lol. It's one song, give them a break. :p You listen to all of the other tracks, and they pretty much have no repetitiveness, it's beautiful music, and anyway Vertigo was a very different single to all of their past songs, I'm suprised that they released that as their first single to the album, to be quite honest. They have never produced a song like that before, it was a new approach for the whole band. It was a jumpy/rocky beginning and I'm pretty sure we won't hear a song like Vertigo again.

I don't Nirvana can be blamed for stuff like Puddle of Mudd and 3 Doors Down hitting the airwaves. In the case of POM how can Nirvana be held responible for those they inspired? The Beatles are EASILY the best out of all these bands IMO. Vertigo isn't the best work (although its catchy) but any band that can write "One" or any other masterpiece deserves praise. I'm a little scared by some of these ticket prices I am seeing. If I'm facing $200 tickets when they import their show down here I won't be happy.

RMadd 03-20-2005 01:58 PM

Nirvana's not directly responsible, but since we can pretty much agree that they (along w/ Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, etc.... altho Nirvana was prolly the biggest of 'em all, & certainly the most "grungy") were the first grunge band and grunge was the beginning of über-seriousness in rock music (after all, it killed hair metal... what's more fun than that?). and when bands like Creed, POM, 3DD, Nickelback, etc etc etc saw they could make huge bucks by writing serious filth 24/7, it just proliferated and escalated into post-grunge and alt-metal and nü-metal.... ahhhh, 3 cheers for the death of the unique, exciting, interesting guitar solo!

Aww man! I don't want you to be shitty on our trip! Maybe I should send you over the money, I don't to rip into your bank account, even if I am paying you back ... cause you cant be shitty! :eek:

When Kurt Cobain died and Nirvana ended, that was the end of grunge rock. (Apart from Pearl Jam, but even they don't seem to be as grungy as they used to be). I have never heard a grunge band with enough talent to allow me to listen to them, the end of Nirvana was the end of grunge / garage rock. Speaking of Puddle Of Mudd ... ugh. Kurt look alike, Nirvana sounding music ... I hate POM.

LOL RMadd about that U2 page, that cracks me up. (Nice glasses, dumbass) :laugh: Funny stuff

nah i'll pay but concert tickets over a $100 IMO is daylight robbery even if the show will be great. don't worry i pay for some stuff, you pay for other stuff. it will be sweet.......

U2 is overrated... and someone needs to tell Bono to that he's not a politician. He needs to stop snooping around important political summits telling people that he's the only one who's concerned about AIDS. U2's Joshua Tree material was great... now it's bland and repetitive.
