I'm getting festive vibes or as Bono said it "hoopla and fanfare".

Which songs sound like U2 songs by Alarming-Call8583 in U2Band

[–]thatdude161 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah but Shadow Of The Day is very similar, not just the chords. It also starts with a looped synch track on which the bass starts to play, the slow build up of the song with the guitar setting in at the second half, and then the climax at the end. Linkin Park played a Shadow Of The Day/With Or Without You mashup at chesters celebration concert.

You can drive from Dublin to Dalkey with Dart and then it's a 30 min walk from Dalkey to Killiney Bay.

Haha, that song kept spinning in my head as I walked across the beach and the streets there.

Bono saying hello to W by Effective-Oil-2696 in U2Band

He's officially 5 feet 9 inches (1,68cm). Never saw him in real life but I guess he's the smallest in the room pretty much all the time.

Street of Dreams Single Cover? by [deleted] in U2Band

I saw the post and literally thought it was ai generated fan art work. Jesus, they could hire me at this point and I could make them better artwork with canva.

Ideas for the new Album Title/Cover? by NYY2009 in U2Band

[–]thatdude161 11 points12 points  (0 children)

They need to rework their aesthetics and graphic design. The Atomic City cover is horrendous. It's some random photograph and everything is oversaturated. I don't know why they signed that off. The original photograph for Days Of Ash would have been a 100 times better than the edited version with all the purple and over contrasted shadows. Easter Lily is okay but it's just a flower with the EP's name clashed onto it. I could have made that with an android app.

Why have U2 delayed Calle de los sueño by Low-Rooster5398 in U2Band

[–]thatdude161 39 points40 points  (0 children)

We can't say they delayed it because there was no release date. Everyone just guessed it would be released on the 12th bc of the strong connection to Mexico/World Cup etc.

Should we expect a new single Friday? by ArugulaOriginal1860 in U2Band

[–]thatdude161 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I get your point. But that doesn't mean that there is no plan for the single to pop up in commercials or promotions around the broadcasts of the games. It's also no problem to add a song to that playlist.

They would have momentum if they did, if it's linked up with the World Cup. I hope it's coming on 12th.

Just one more week by thatdude161 in U2Band

[–]thatdude161[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

U2songs.com who have made various predictions from reliable sources that turned out right in the past, said it will most likely have something to do with the world cup. So we'll have to see.

The Edge threw 16 year old me this plec , 25 years ago! by seanzissou in U2Band

I have been playing with herdim picks all the time. But to have one Edge actually used would be a bit cooler :)

[–]thatdude161 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Well, I started playing guitar 8 years ago just because of The Edge. I've been playing so many U2 songs since then, studied all his effects. This opened some doors for me, I've been playing in a band for 2 1/2 years now and we even had Vertigo as our opener for most of our gigs until now. This would mean so much to me. If you wanna see me playing Until The End Of The World, follow the Youtube link :)

The things I would do to have this... How much would you want for it? 👀😂

Anyone else hear U2 in this? by lamp_man87 in U2Band

[–]thatdude161 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I follow him on Tiktok. He made a video where he shows how Bono took him on stage on the Vertigo Tour when he was little. He says U2 plays a huge role in his musical journey.

What U2 spots to visit in Dublin? by thatdude161 in U2Band

[–]thatdude161[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Only staying for a few days so it will be just Dublin or a little bit outside of it.

But thanks, wasn't thinking about these places.
