For every band that just cuts you open, that just strikes your soul like a missive from everything that's right with the world, there are 15 bands that do nothing for you. U2 has always been one of those other bands for me. And if it weren't for Bono's pompous bullshit, they would remain with that pantheon of the lifeless. Instead they are now a symbol of my vitriol and hatred.
If I ever met Bono the first thing I would do (after kneeing him straight in the balls) would be to ask him if he still thought changing his name was such a great idea. I mean what seems fun and clever as a teenage fan boy probably now seems a little ridiculous when you're shaking hands with the political elite.
And don't even get me started on The Edge...
