U2 never hired someone out of a bar band to play the Edge's parts while he was in rehab and then turned to Michael Bolton's corporate whores to write their songs.

      U2's worst song (pick anything on the Passengers album) is still 20 times better than "I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing".

        I agree totally.

                Your right on all those points, but U2 is at least as big, probably a bigger, sellout than Aeroshit. That's what has pissed me off about those guys. Amazing how they started out as an anti-corporate Irish band, and here we are.

Or they could do "Bullet the Blue Sky" and say "The God I believe in doesn't charge $1000 for a concert ticket, MISTER!"
                  If you're scalping U2 tickets for $1000 you're only charging $5.00 over face value anyway, not a huge profit margin. They're pretty proud of they're concerts.

                          I don't like their new stuff too much, but Achtung Baby will always be one of the best albums by any band ever IMO

                            How this started was earlier this week, that "always unimpeachably accurate" source of information NewsHAX was reporting that U2 was holding a private fundraiser concert for Rick "man on dog" Santorum at the price of $1000 a ticket.

                            Naturally, this caused an international storm of controversy, since U2's political viewpoints are not exactly secret. And not exactly neoconservative.

                            The reality was that someone in the Santorum camp had purchased a block of tickets and was selling them at the high price to Republicans who wanted to meet the Prickster.

                            In other words, SCALPING the tickets, which I always thought was illegal. Except when Republicans do it, I guess.

                            In either case, the band had nothing whatsoever to do with it. Or the Hillary scalping either. Actually, this is the first I've heard of that one.

                            Not surprising since Hillary and the other DLC stooges do everything else exactly like the Repukelicans do.
                            The Chicago Cubs own a broker and sell tickets to their fans for high demand games. White Sox, Yankees, Cardinals and others. It is all supply and demand. It does suck to thing that the Tribune Company has to screw their fans. But they are assholes. I would expect a free ticket if I had to sit next to Hillary for the show.

                              TicketBastard needs to set a limit of tickets per customer and have that apply to EVERYONE. It's absolutely unfair that the best tickets to most events are never truly up for sale to begin with, because radio stations, and more recently corporations and politicians buy up entire sections of seats.

                              U2 wants to play the shows for their fans, and I'm sure other bands feel the same way. And I'm sure the Cubs would rather see true baseball fans pacing their stadium. Just another example of what's fucked about Corporatist America.

                                Is there such a thing as a true baseball fan at Wrigley Field.
