U2, I'd like to smash Bono's face in.

Don't mind some of the music but why does the short twat have to wear shades all the time

The only good thing about U2 is The Edge.Top guitarist even though he does use alot of
effects but still one of the best

Is it so that he is not recognised off stage and can therefore avoid having his face smashed in?

U2, I'd like to smash Bono's face in.

You read my mind, I've never been able to stand the condescending prick.Did Anyone see the open letter he supposedly wrote to Barak Obama? Talk about how far do you want my tongue up your arse . And Sting is another prick from the same mould, he's going to save the planet, but he's going to collect his airmiles while he's doing it!

Elton John used to be great but has become an embarrasment.Sounds like the drunken pub singer.I still listen to his early albums but cry when I think of what he has become

 

[defrocked priest]

Paul McCartney duriing the last Live-Aid Concert:

"Hello everyone, I just bought my daughter a helicopter, now lets stop world hunger."

Fooking tosspots Bono, Sting , the whole fooking lot of them.

Scouting for Girls.Total bilge water.There are so many talented unsigned bands and SFG get signed.I guess I don't listen to commercial music for one good reason "SFG".Thank god I have discovered Planet Rock.I'd sooner watch Palace than listen to that load of crap.I HATE THEM.

[Tyrone Biggums]

The Rolling Stones.

Yes they had alot of hits and sold alot of records.


But compared to their contempories eg Beatles, Kinks, Who, Yardbirds they were way behind in being innovative and overall showing a great degree of creativity outside being just a very good rock n roll band.

 

[Austrian Gull]

The Kasabians - a lot of attitude for very little talent.

In face, pretty much any band who the NME talks up as the next big thing.

The beatles were not as innovative as people would like to think. there first two albums were basic watered down rock n roll covers of carl perkins etc,they even styled there name off buddy holly. and as for moving on with lyrics like "she loves me yeah yeah yeah"..........Very innovative.

the kinks,who,yardbirds did exactly the same as the rolling stones british twist on the "BLUES"......
