When you're growing up in a small town... Didn't Lou Reed sing about it. It reminds me of saturday nights in my hometown, where some cover band played all the big hits from the top 100 of all times, you know the kind of music: toto, bryan adams, some queen, soem rock classics and everybody kept saying how good they were. This is a cover band remember! I wanted to shout out sometimes, but the appreciation was too big.

I missed out on the Fall, seems exactly a gig you'd never forget, possibly not for the reasons you'd hope for anticipating, but afterwards certainly worth it.

T.U.F. was the highlight of my U2-fan days, I stopped after The Joshua tree as well, at least as a fanatic. Rattle & Hum did have it's charm as well though, my favorite now is October, not only because of the title track, which is great, but because it's an album, not just a collection of songs.
