    i believe Bono and Ed will be on that train and theyll be sharing a sandwich.... if its ok with you that is. ;)[/quote]

    lol

    believe it or not Bono actually walked right past me once, it was at a massive attack show

    I managed to get a grip on my worst instincts though :evil: ;)

    anyway it was the second time I went to a massive attack show and it was a HUGE disapointment compared to the first

    probably bono's fault :mrgreen:

    Has to go to the guy that rejected The Beatles when they auditioned for Decca Records. He told them, "Guitar bands are going to be out in a few years."

    In all fairness, have you heard the Decca audition tape? It contains none of the songwriting magic that would make the group famous, and it's rather boring. I would have rejected them too.

    The Beatles are personally responsible for some of Rock's biggest mistakes, such as:

    Yoko Ono
    Ringo's solo career
    Paul's post Beatles career (sorry, but I can't stand Wings)
    Free as a Bird
    Loosing control of Northern Songs
    Letting Phil Spector produce a record

    I could go on, but then I'd have millions of people remind me that despite these mistakes, they are still the biggest band in the world, 40 years after they split :D

    The Who was not in control of how the venue sells tickets whether general admission or seated tickets. Besides they're also not in control of security or how the fans are allowed in.

    Also MTV was great as long as it showed ONLY videos and many classic videos were made just to be on MTV.

    This is going to be controversial, on this page, or at least worth thinking about.

    The day Andy Wood decided to pick back up the heroin.

    Sure, if it didn't happen we wouldn't have PJ. But we'd have Mother Love Bone and Andy Wood. I'm partial too because I grew up with him.

    Layne Staley RIP

    The day Tupac decided to join Death Row records. Could have, quite possibly, been what killed him and biggy both.
