  • 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
