    It was inevitable, you can't have that many pretentious, self centered pr*cks in the same place at the same time.

    Murmur has to be one the best debuts of all time. Possibly only the Velvets or Roxy can rival it...

    That was exactly what I thought when I read that.

    Can't be long til they implode can it? They've been monumentally irrelevant in anything but their own minds for about 20 years now.
    I'm left handed, if that matters.

    What exactly does this mean? When was pop music (or any music for that matter) ever relevant to anything?

    If they're still enjoying what they do and others enjoy listening to their music (I should point out that I'm not personally a fan) why should they stop.

    I'd be a lot happier if Bono stuck to making music and stayed out of politics to be honest.
