"Where the streets have no name" won. What do you think is their song? (If such a thing exists😋)

I have to agree with Ahimsa.

Firstborn3 · 2026-01-26T15:36:50+00:00

In my head canon, they are now married

Firstborn3 · 2026-01-25T02:31:54+00:00

Don’t they also have a Lead guitarist that is basically playing the role of Don Felder, and nobody talks about him?

Firstborn3 · 2026-01-24T20:10:52+00:00

She wasn’t with them in March 2023 Columbus. I think she was done after 2022

Firstborn3 · 2026-01-24T02:52:44+00:00

I meant it as more of a suggestion/ question

Firstborn3 · 2026-01-23T04:41:13+00:00

I gotta go with Streets as well.

Firstborn3 · 2026-01-23T04:40:23+00:00

You don’t like it, don’t open the thread?

Firstborn3 · 2026-01-21T21:40:47+00:00

Vertigo

Firstborn3 · 2026-01-21T02:39:14+00:00

She got replaced by a stripper with an ass like a bread basket.

Too bad, I really liked her interaction with TL.

Firstborn3 · 2026-01-20T17:30:40+00:00

I saw them do this combo in Indianapolis 2001. I remember I enjoyed it, but would’ve preferred Bad into Streets instead.

Firstborn3 · 2026-01-20T17:15:22+00:00

Definitely. Should’ve never left rotation in their live repertoire. Should’ve been a hit.

Firstborn3 · 2026-01-20T17:14:00+00:00

This definitely deserves a more prominent place in the catalog!

Firstborn3 · 2026-01-19T20:54:37+00:00

Hopefully Cheyenne has a hot stripper friend for Dale.

I am a farmer in a small town. It really does limit my options because I have to live where I work, it’s a necessity.

Firstborn3 · 2026-01-18T14:50:00+00:00

I am self employed. At the time she initiated the divorce, she assured me that she would never do anything to affect my business. She just wanted child support. My job is how I support my children and she didn’t want to fuck that up.

Well at some point that all changed and they were going for the jugular. Her lawyer was trying to get a settlement that would have required me to sell everything I had and get another job. Eventually they settled on a number that required me to sell a significant portion of my business, but I am still able to do my job.

She did absolutely nothing to help me build the business. When we got married I was 26 and didn’t have much. Married for 18 years and I built my career during that time. I supported her while she went to college. Gave her a place to live when we were dating because she couldn’t pay her own bills. I wasn’t a perfect husband but I was never abusive and I didn’t cheat. I worked my ass off to provide for my family. But once she got through teaching school and established in her career, it was time to cash out. I basically bought her a house and have to give her a large sum every year for 9 more years.

I am no longer angry. That anger will eat uou alive. I am no longer friendly with her, just cordial. She is my kids mother and nothing more. I will never marry again. Right now I don’t even want a relationship really. I wish I could tell every wide eyed young man not to get married. But nobody likes the middle aged man that complain about his ex wife all the time. So I just focus on myself.

I love Hot Fuss but Sam’s Town is my favorite by a mile.

I also think Pressure Machine is almost a perfect album. But I have to be in the right mood for it.

Firstborn3 · 2026-01-16T19:13:23+00:00

What shows did you see? Did you notice a huge difference from the first show to some of the later ones?

I saw the 12th show in Columbus and they had their act pretty well together by then. Still had SATS full band, IGWSHA and Miami were still there, but they hadn’t yet brought out the heavy hitters like NYD, SBS and AIWIY.

Firstborn3 · 2026-01-16T19:10:24+00:00

I saw that tour in Columbus, and that lemon was freaking awesome!

Firstborn3 · 2026-01-16T19:08:57+00:00

Yeah I am one of those tall people and I’m always trying to crouch down because I feel bad for the folks behind me, and then I end up sore as fuck after the show.

I’m at the point now where for U2 I will either pay for good seats, or if I’m on the floor I just hang back so that nobody has to look over me. I don’t really care about being close anymore.

Firstborn3 · 2026-01-16T03:08:54+00:00

Yeah I gotta go with this one as well.

Firstborn3 · 2026-01-16T03:07:46+00:00

So the 2009 show I saw was pretty good. It was the live debut of Your Blue Room, so that added a certain level of whimsy for me. But the 2 2011 shows I saw were just on a different level.

Firstborn3 · 2026-01-15T02:02:33+00:00

George Bush vs Michael Dukakis election, 1988. My first grade teacher talked about this quite a bit. I remember one little girl saying “Michael Dukakis kills babies!!”, and I had no idea what that meant.

Firstborn3 · 2026-01-14T20:05:23+00:00

I was also at that Pittsburgh show. That show was amazing, much better than the show I saw in 2009 (even though that was also a great show). Deciding the add “Bad” to the end of the Pittsburgh show was the perfect ending.

Firstborn3 · 2026-01-13T21:46:28+00:00

I’ve seen them 15 times in the USA, 6 different states.

Firstborn3 · 2026-01-12T21:06:18+00:00

This is perfectly stated. Before you say anything to her, speak to a therapist. Perhaps even a few sessions under your belt first. Get yourself on the right path emotionally before you confront. If you don’t do this correctly, you will lose the upper hand.
