There's no need to have the other band members active when you have a frontman like Bono @ US Festival 83'.
Peace
Bump....Checkout his antics on stage and above it. This was one THE most memorable moments from the entire US Festival. It was what basically got them recognized in America.

One of their songs "Mercy" has been floating around for a couple of years. I believe it's one of the songs cut from HTDAAB, but Bono said in a recent interview that it would be included on their new album. Anyway, it's certainly better than any other song that was released on their last album, in my opinion. I wonder why it got cut? Has anyone else heard this?
I wish rap would go away. If we're wishing popular music away that is where I'd start. I can give or take U2. I'd rather hear their music blasting out of speakers of the teenagers cars than BOMP, BOMP, BOMP yeah niggas,yeeeeah,mudderfuka dis and mudderfuka that, I'm a mudderfukin pimp raise yo mudderfukin hands in the air. yeeeeaaah, word.

I'm not sure why it was cut but maybe it was just due to it didn't fit in what they were attempting to do on that particular album...HTDAAB.

I dont know what it is about U2 but I just dont like them. I dont know if it's there music that bugs me or the fact that the guitarist calls himself The Edge but something really bugs me about them and I can't pin point it.
