U2

The Boldest, Baddest Band On Earth

I won't bother you with the details. There are too many wonderful -and far better than mine!- sites covering U2 extensively. I only want to say that they are my favorites!


It is not only their music. It is their lyrics, style and above all irony, representing our meta-modern, post-Cold War era angst and emptiness. One simply must listen to "Daddy's Going to Pay for Your Crashed Car" with the intro from "Lenin's Favorite Songs" to understand.

They have a long history of LP's, songs and so-called "tranformations" (that in my opinion are anything but...)and according to Zoonation their next alboum will be released in 1999. Therefore, it will not be surprising if the year 2000 will enter with the sounds of "New Year's Day" live from Bono somewhere on the planet... Follow my links to U2, for more information on them and their work.

What I have to input here is this: Why not create an

Online U2 Tour Association ?


My idea came from Martin Stieglmayer's recount of his experiences in Argentina during the PopMart tour, when he and many other Europeans and Americans visited a country where a scant no. of people who spoke English...


Why not make this site here a link between the U2 fans around the world? What I suggest is simple: People will submit their e-mail addresses in their respective countries and offer info to U2 fans coming to their countries to see U2 perform. This is all on a strictly voluntary basis! The info will be free of charge of course -as this site will be too- and will contain simple, but vital!!, bits of information. From bus routes to how to get to the concert site, to cheap hotels...

It has been derived from my experience that whenever in a foreign country one tends to feel strange and -occasionally- helpless. What I suggest can solve the problem once and for all, so every fan can enjoy a country, have a great time at the concert and -why not?- make new friends. It goes without saying that anyone who is helped, must do likewise in his / her own country. So,

read the list now and get in touch!!


Note: People joining here will become part of a mailing list pertaining the U2 concerts only. If you wnat a general U2 mailing list then you could try The U2 Wire Mailing List

If you like my idea then....

Submit your name and e-mail to the list of associate fans!!!
