yeah...because it has nothing to do with the fact that U2's new stuff might actually be good...no, it's because we are pussies...

Exactly.

And this is coming from a fan of U2 old stuff.

I know no one will agree with me, but since names are being thrown out there ... Lovehammers .

Fall Out Boy

pants had to be pulled up before i called....

the "stick to sports" comment was a little d-baggy on my part. I admitted as much to Mac after the show.

it was the generalities that bothered me. How can you comment on what he did at the show when you weren't there...didn't see a highlight, didn't hear any audio, and then go off of what a few people said. zederman and silvy of all people....

fyi: the reviews for the wednesday show are not scathing at all.

liz phair is the greatest act to come out of chicago in the last 20 years? i think when you throw out "greatest" you need a ton of sales, hardware, and radio play to back that up.

local h became a band while living in zion. therefore, local h is from zion. just like cheap trick is a rockford band....

chas, please tell me when billy became a collosal dickwad in your mind.

I've heard enough of them while hanging out with my brother to have an informed opinion on the matter...that being said, I don't want to get into a pissing match about music...

as long as it is an informed opinion...

I think we all can agree that the Chicago music scene has produced some fine musical talent over the years. The Smasing Pumpkins are without question the most successful band to come out of chicago in the last twenty years. The issue with the term "Successful" is that musical tastes vary as much as Michael Jackson's face. I happen to like most of the pumpkins stuff . I also find them a bit self-indulgent at times. I prefer the earlier stuff. They can go away right now and I won't cry.

I'm with you on this one. Love him or hate him, he's opened a lot of peoples eyes to Chicago Hip-Hop.

If anyone is still interested...here's the Youtube video from the ENCORE of the show.
Keep in mind, the encore.
Time to go out w/ a bang.
All he did was insult fans about not being happy w/ the band, comparing the crowd to a money hungry ex girlfriend, and NOT playing ANY songs!

I don't care what the set list is. just play some music. it's a rock show.
judge for yourself.
the good stuff begins at the 1:45 mark.

also keep in mind, that NO ONE is booing him despite him expecting it.
everyone wanted to embrace this dbag, he just wanted to say "f you"
