toddvj Posted April 26, 2002 Share Posted April 26, 2002 I read the post further down and thought I'd start a new one rather than being tied to that one. First off, U2 is not my favorite band, but I don't see how anyone could not like them. I would love to see them in concert, never wanted to before, but after watching this disc, I will see them next time they're in town. On to my question... On this disc, when I go to set list, I can only select tracks 1-10. If I want track 14 I have to go to 10 and hit skip 4 times. Am I missing something on the menu? I don't usually sit down and watch a whole concert video, just a couple tracks at a time. If anyone knows the secret, please let me know. Don't reply just to say U2 sucks, please. ------------------ My Home Theater Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boa12 Posted July 15, 2002 Share Posted July 15, 2002 i 2 greatly appreciate U2. sure they've gone somewhat pop but what band hasn't unless they're a bunch of idealists or masochists. i really admire them because they worked real hard to get where they are. use to come to my dinky college town & play quite a few times thru the year in these lil seedy honky tonks when i was in school in the 70s. & love "angel of harlem" & their version of "helter skelter". ------------------ My Home Systems Page This message has been edited by boa12 on 07-15-2002 at 09:31 PM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBB Posted July 16, 2002 Share Posted July 16, 2002 I've always liked U2. I'm not a fanatic but I have some of their work. I respect them. If my memory is correct I think they had their first album released when most of them were in their teens. Bono is likeable in his own strange way. He wrote the story for the movie The Million Dollar Hotel that starred Mel Gibson and Milla Jovovich. Definitely for special tastes but I liked it. Beleive it or not the drummer,Larry Mullen,runs the show in that band.At least that's what I saw Bono say.In fact he also said that Mullen was the reason he was in the band in the first place.There's and old saying.If you don't have a good drummer . You don't have a good band. U2 is a good band. Adios. ------------------ tHe wORLDs werst TYPesT> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluless Posted July 16, 2002 Share Posted July 16, 2002 BBB- A quote from Larry Mullen: ...... But the real reason why it's unlikely that I will take the front for any length of time is that Bono can't drum. LOL... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBB Posted July 16, 2002 Share Posted July 16, 2002 LOL That's a good quote Clu. But they do make sure they get Larry up on that drum riser ! Six feet above everyone else. LOL ------------------ tHe wORLDs werst TYPesT> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cluless Posted July 17, 2002 Share Posted July 17, 2002 BBB- Enough of the veg-o-matic action! I think I need to go outside and get stoned before I try to figure out what's going on here. Oh, BTW, for the P.C. or the "context challenged" I mean I'm going outside and let the neighbors throw rocks, and faggots at me. (that iron really smarts) They are all lined up and ready...seems they didn't like some of the explicit lyrics that I blasted over the stereo this weekend. BTW, was intrigued enough to order the DVD...we'll see This message has been edited by cluless on 07-17-2002 at 05:53 PM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Blue Posted July 17, 2002 Share Posted July 17, 2002 True... "Rattle and Hum" is one of my favorite DVD's. Just crank up "Bad", and it will move your soul. The bass during that song is amazing. And I love the way they begin "Where the Streets Have No Name" as the first bit of color in the video with the deep background hues and then explode into the overhead panning helicopter shot as the intro ends. Wonderful. Still waiting to get "Elevation" on DVD from Amazon. I'll let you know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBB Posted July 17, 2002 Share Posted July 17, 2002 What are you talking about Clu ? We ain't got no veg-o-matics around here.We don't need no stinkin' veg-o-matics. Now if you stay outside too long you may run into a predator or two. That's when a veg-o-matic of a different sort may come in handy. Get to the CHOPPA ,Clu, get to the CHOPPA !Vrooooom... ------------------ tHe wORLDs werst TYPesT> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lone Palm Posted July 21, 2002 Share Posted July 21, 2002 avman, Those horns on "Angel Of Harlem" sent me through the roof. I completely agree with you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cluless Posted July 27, 2002 Share Posted July 27, 2002 OK...so the DVD came and I did a "selective listen". Sounded great, the poor littl KSW-12 hung with the big R7- dogs...and it was a happy thing. But like I say, every day....it's a whole new world. I would say this is a definite Keeper. Next, I never did find "Angel of Harlem", and the only U2 -CD that I have it on is Rattle and Hmum.
