Sir Stewart

That was pre-American Anthem soundtrack/pre-Power Station FWIW.

Geezer means grumpy old man in the States. I like the UK usage better. U2's last release was the "Window In The Skies" single, which was magnificent, and light years better than anything on HTDAAB.

Same here. Automatic was their finale, for me.

Totally.

This one, btw, is TOO BEAUTIFUL for words...even Andy looks good I hated Andy for some reason - I think now probably because he wasn't as pretty as the others - and I sprayed his face with some kind of aerosol (probably Aqua Net) and wiped until his face was gone.

If U2's performing in 2020 I hope it's a lot like their performance of "Numb" at the MTV Awards.

Ooh, an assignment!

Found it!

I had a Duran Duran poster that came free with "The Reflex" 45. EDIT: here's a pic - no poster pic though

I was given Confederacy as a gift - I haven't made it through 40 pages, over two tries.

That scene where the kid is freaking out on meth thinking he's about to get shot is awful. Since I'm close to hijacking: Gonna try this again.

Absolutely.

My ratio of listening to baseball vs watching it on TV is so lopsided that when I do see a game on TV, it's information overload.

Damn fine flick, that.

And then a "The Band - Where to start?" thread.

I'd like to see that again.

Damn right.

Opening Day!

2 for 2 - two BT songs you mentioned

Wow you're 2/2 - I can't imagine wincing at one word on Being There.

Bill James to be profiled on "60 Minutes" tonight.
